I purchased a larage Russian MRE after being inspired by Steve1989MREInfo.

I purchased this MRE from amazon
Military Russian Army Food Ration Daily Pack Mre Emergency Rations 2017-2018
and have had a few bits and pieces so far, one of which was the chocolate. This chocolate is some of the best i've ever had and I'm looking for a place where I can purchase more to share with friends and family. I will attach a picture of the chocolate

Not sure where you could pick up the bars alone, but the Russian mountain rations come with 5 of them. Unfortunately those rations are hard to come by and tend to be quite expensive, in the $80+ range or a single ration...

I wasn't quite sure where to even begin searching since I could not translate the packaging. I'd imagine the chocolate could be ordered from some sort of online russian store, just unsure how to find it.

This ration has been quite interesting so far, drink mixes great, coffee was excellent, chocolate was incredible, just hoping to find them online individually!

I see alot of Russian chocolate available on line, but not this exact one. Some times items are produced only for rations or wrapped in different packaging. Not sure if this is the case with these.

I searched the UPC number online and found all sorts of russian sites some appearing to sell the chocolate, I will have to translate them when I have more free time and see if I can order the chocolate there.

THere are several other rations that contain this chocolate. But...the hard part is that there are about as many Russian rations as there are letters in the alphabet.

I have a friend in Russia who I can check with for you.
