Swedish dessert

edit

Quote from the article: Ischoklad or "Ice chocolate" is a Swedish dessert or candy, that originates in Germany. It is definitely a dessert found in Sweden, especially at the julbord. But I wouldn't call it a Swedish dessert or "originates" from Germany. It is still very well known in Germany as Eiskonfekt. In fact all ice chocolate I've seen in Swedish supermarkets was the one German brand I know since I was a child. In English speaking countries it's apparently known as Ice Cups, see [1]. Here's an image of old ice chocolate molds [2]. Cattleyard (talk) 23:02, 16 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Well, then it should probably be described as a candy or dessert than is found in Germany and Scandinavia. Because unfortunately, neither this nor any other language version's article has any reference to its German origin. Tomas e (talk) 15:07, 17 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
One of the bigger German "Eiskonfekt" producers Eichetti wrote on their homepage that they launched it in 1927. The English page ([3]) speaks of Ice-cream gateau while the German page ([4]) says Eiskonfekt Eistörtchen (German for Ischoklad cake). Unfortunately I haven't found any more sources with who and when it was first created. But I assume it was Eichetti. Can't find any proof though. Cattleyard (talk) 08:17, 23 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
I'd be slightly careful about "we were first!" claims from producers, especially when it comes to food items that can be produced in the kitchen. They could for example have been the first produce it large-scale. Tomas e (talk) 12:24, 23 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

I'm a bit confused: Why is it rubricated as "Ischoklad" instead of its english name? Or, in case there is no real english name for it, the german name for that matter, since it is, as stated in the article's opening paragraph, a german confectionery item? 91.19.111.168 (talk) 13:05, 3 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

There´s no pee in german Eiskonfekt. That´s a germanophobe hoax. I delete this. 2003:DC:F720:1A00:CCBD:9893:30E9:3D8B (talk) 03:44, 31 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
