The products vendors needs to pay high rentals, employees salaries, and at the same time to make profits......therefore the prices of these products cost so much.....

When I was in Germany, I was surprised at how affordable chocolate was. I picked up some local treats and enjoyed a lot of variety for a great price. When I later moved to Singapore, I noticed that chocolate was much pricier. I think it comes down to things like import costs and local market conditions. One of my favorites from the U.S. is polka dot bars—so delicious and worth every penny! It’s always a treat to enjoy something special from back home. Have you found any good chocolate deals in Singapore?
