Balisto is a wholemeal biscuit bar snack manufactured by Mars, Incorporated, consisting of a digestive biscuit center and a variety of milky cream toppings, and coated in milk chocolate.
Normally, there are two fingers in a package, though the multipack contains ten fingers wrapped individually. They are available in Austria, Germany, Switzerland, the Netherlands, France, Luxembourg, Belgium, Slovenia, Hungary, Italy, Denmark. In Spring 2011, the bars were introduced to the United Kingdom.[citation needed]
When the Balisto bar was released in 1981, Mars, Incorporated in West Germany produced it. Its name supposedly alludes to its dietary fibre content ("Ballaststoffe" in German). In 2021, the Balisto bar with 90% paper-based packaging was released for the German market.[1]
