        The new font is still so ugly to me.

        Besides everything else that’s ugly about them recently. The shrinking is also embarassing, and the product not as good anymore.

        Weird that their official website still features it:
        https://tobleronechocolate.com/

          I don’t see much official about that website. This one seems a bit more legit if you ask me: https://www.mondelezinternational.com/our-brands/toblerone/

          But also feel free to look up their logo change, many websites reported on it.

      Toblerone has also hidden much of the chocolate that used to come in the bars.
