Top 7 Chocolate drinks in Malaysia

Robert's Google+


Chocolate lovers you should know these chocolate drinks.


These are not meant for kids 5 years below. The best and popular chocolate drinks are Milo, Horlicks and Vico recognizable by Malaysians.


According to self-made research, 30g chocolate power could serve 350ml chocolate drink. A small pack of 350g chocolate power could serve up to 3850ML of chocolate drink. It will cost around RM10 for Cadbury chocolate powder. The cheapest one could be Vico.


Let say you have purchased Oligo 240ml only for RM2, you only get 1200ml. It is the same applies if you purchase F&N magnolia chocolate 890ML for RM6.00. For consumer wise, it is better for everyone to purchase chocolate powder rather than purchase canned chocolate drink.

  • Contact no                : https://www.facebook.com/mmsMalaysia



M&M's chocolate candies is available nationwide and can be bought at nearest Petronas gas station's merchandise shop. By a blind estimation, it should have 16 small M&M's chocolate peanut candies inside a 40G package. There are different in color as you can see the image above. There are red, green, yellow, orange, dark and blue. All of these chocolate candies does not taste varies. It all tasted the same.


Unlike any other chocolate candies in Malaysia market. M&M's definitely round and slightly bigger. Other chocolate candies in Malaysia so far I have eaten some not-so-round shape. It was like deformed shape of chocolate candies.


What actually motivated most of the people about M&M's chocolate candies should be the M&M video advertisement. It seem like no other chocolate candies brands approached this marketing strategy which they attracted consumers by attractive video advertisement. Have you notice yet, there was an exclusive M&M video advertisement catered for Malaysian consumers ?


M&M's chocolate candies tried escaping from "checkout" counter. It surprising that they got legs running away. I think they are running away in order to avoid getting consumed. That really horrible we shall shed some compassion.

If Coffee helps you stay awake then Horlicks helps you sleep soundly. 



Horlicks Chocolate 200G



There was Horlicks chocolate advertisement showed on TV last few months ago. It pretty much tell us that kids should drink Horlicks. What about the adult they do not need Horlicks ? Everyone should drink Horlicks in my personal opinion. It seem like Horlicks company is truly committed in spreading awareness among Malaysian about it health drink.


There were many chocolate flavor health drinks household brands in Malaysia. For example, Nestle Milo, Oligo, Vigo and Dutch Lady newly launched Chocolate flavor.



  1. Dutch Lady newly launched Chocolate flavor
  2. Vico and Milo



Horlicks Chocolate is a new flavor launched this year by GSK who also owned Ribena. Horlicks is well known in Hong Kong. They served Horlicks in restaurant rather than Nestle Milo. It is could contrary in Malaysia because most of the restaurant in Malaysia served Nestle Milo.


Horlicks is immersed with 23 vital nutrients for 1 year and above consumer. It contains Vitamin A, B, C, D, Niacin and many more.

Oligo and Milo Chocolate Drinks Comparison

Oligo Vs Milo Chocolate Beverage 







I cant believe drinking Oligo is like I was drinking Nestle Milo. There was nothing wrong with my tongue. I cant differentiate the taste. Despite some people said Oligo has bad taste. When people said Oligo, a not so good chocolate drink I thought to myself that "how bad it can goes" ?


Oligo is one of the many beverage brand under one big company. It Power Root. I believe you have seen Power Root advertisement. It always triggering my human desire to win RM 1 million. Even the oldest chocolate beverage in Malaysia such as Milo, it did not had this kind of RM 1 million advertisement. 


Believe it or not both of these chocolate beverages tasted the same. It like a replicate of it or they just has different packaging. That all of it ! Speaking about Power Root, they have extensive beverages products for Malaysian consumers. They have their own version of Red Bull and wide selection of Nescafe.


It is up to Malaysian consumer whether to support Power Root or other brands. There is one important noticeable factor among those beverage products, particularly Power Root, all of them has no price range gap compared to other brands. For example, one go to shopping mall picking up Oligo and Milo and notice the price are same. Why is that same price ??


I thought popular brand such as Milo should sell higher whereas Oligo should sell in lower price. It does not work like that in beverage industry. If price and taste were the same what really a concern for consumer will be the brand. It seem like Nestle brand is stronger compared to Power Root and consumer are most likely to choose Nestle Milo over Power Root's Oligo. 


Give it a try for Oligo chocolate drink if you have seen them at supermarket or 7-Eleven stores nationwide. Both are great chocolate beverage in Malaysia 


Yes to Vico, No to Milo

Vico vs Milo in Malaysia



I hope not doing any illegal stuff here nor trying to prove anything wrong or jeopardy a business entity. It just my personal choice and personal opinion. Actually, I am just following the norm.


The norm is that temporarily stop consuming a certain brand and encourage to consume another brand. I love both this drinks. I have been drinking MILO since at a very young age. In other hands, Vico is the second chocolate beverage brand that I know. If someone asks me about "example of Chocolate beverage brands in Malaysia". I would not hesitate to say Milo first following a Vico.


Vico is like 10% and Milo is 90% in a blind guess for my entire life consumption on this both chocolate beverage. Milo virtually existed in nationwide and freely available. There are milo in can, milo in a stick pack, milo in a moving transport. I believe there were no Vico sold in a can right.


If you have been reading the news, you would notice there are some people actually doing this stuff as "boycott" . They will say yes to Vico and no to Milo. The sentiment does exist you just need to go to a correct group of people. Well, Vico is made in Malaysia and under a company Maestro Swiss Food Sdn Bhd. If you must insist to know it halal as well as Nestle's Milo.


In an analysis on Vico and Milo's nutritional information. Vico apparently has Vitamin A, B1, B2, B6, B12, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Calcium, Magnesium and Iron. As for Milo, there got almost the same except Milo does not have Vitamin E.







Vico and transformers cup by Darlie



Making Vico mix with some condensed mik. Vico in 200g cost around RM4.20 only.





The vico color is about the same as Milo. The only obvious difference between Milo and Vico is that Vico has an unique chocolate taste. Both of them are great chocolate beverages brand. Vico definitely has sales surge during that period of time.

Kit Kat chocolate taste different than a Cadbury made chocolate. Kit Kat Chunky is a wafer clothed with chocolate milk. Zizan Razak is an actor and well known comedian. To be an ambassador for Kit Kat in Malaysia must have attracts many people buying Kit Kat chocolates. 

Besides, he made a Kit Kat new promotional video. He is the passenger and he is too the driver. After he tasted the Kit Kat Chunky immediately he took out a scissor modifying the Taxi cab into a no roof. For your information, he had been a Kit Kat ambassador since 2013.

More than 1.3 million views on both Youtube video clip Dutch Lady Syiok Choc Taste Challenge. That is a very successful online video marketing. I had watched it and deep down in my heart I felt interested. I wanted to taste some of it and what does it mean by "UHT" they kept repeating.

 UHT stands for Ultra High Temperature. It has to be related to temperature and milk longevity. UHT is new and popular food technology to heat 1 or 2 seconds the milk to kill harmful microbes inside milk and increase shelf life of the milk. Due to the short exposure, Dutch Lady Chocolate UHT maintained most of it tastes.

For your information, Dutch Lady Chocolate UHT seem to have very uncommon advantage. You do not need to refrigerate it. It sound so ridiculous all milk needed to be refrigerated. Well, that what everyone said about UHT milk.

 Hate to see that "Once opened, drink it within 3 days" I never really finish it in 3 days. I could left it for a week and it still taste good. What do you expect ? True Asian don drink that much milk. Besides, This is what I hate to hear the most. Somebody showed me a food pyramid and there is a milk it is one of the food and beverage we should have refrain eat or drink too much. I am very sure this food pyramid chart maker must be came from one of the Asian countries. Have you drink your milk today ??

I am going to tweet with this hashtag that is the right thing to do when you have tried Dutch Lady UHT chocolate yourselves. #dlsyiokchoc





I wonder what are the reaction of Dutch Lady staff when most of the Malaysian peeled the other box rather than choosing Dutch Lady UHT chocolate. I still not convinced did they ever put another chocolate beverage brand in a test. I bet they put all Dutch Lady chocolate in those container and masked it.




They seem so happy after tested Dutch Lady UHT Chocolate. No one can deny the power of free beverage in shopping mall.
