Mekupelet (Hebrew: מקופלת) is a bar of thinly folded milk chocolate produced in Israel since 1935 originally by 'Elite' now a subdivision of the Strauss Group. It is similar in texture to the British chocolate bar known as Cadbury Flake. The wrapper of the bar has transparent plastic as well as yellow, blue, red, and some white. In Hebrew, it is known as Mekupelet (meaning, "folded"), and in English, many wrappers have 'Chocolate Log' on them. A caption on the wrapper says, "milk chocolate bar" in Hebrew. It is known for its crumbliness and thin flakes.
Mekupelet is exported to overseas markets. Mekupelet is also produced in a 'Mehadrin' version through the 'Magadim' factory of the Strauss Group.
[edit] Variations
Several varieties of Mekupelet have been produced over the years, including:
