Kinder Bueno (kinder is German for "children", bueno is Spanish for "good" or "tasty") is a chocolate bar made by Italian confectionery maker Ferrero.

Production
The Kinder Bueno bar is made in the Ferrero factories of Villers-Écalles, France and Warsaw, Poland. In its early beginnings, the twin kinder bueno had hazelnut cream inside an actual hazelnut shell, but because the product was targeting children the idea was dropped after only 2 years, and only the nut filling remains. In 2012 they made the same bar, except with ingredients such as white nougat and white chocolate.
