In 1887, after many unsuccessful experiments, Daniel Peter developed the original formula for what was to become the first successful milk chocolate in the world. He called his product Gala after the Greek word meaning 'from the milk'
Je crois savoir d'une manière à peu près certaine que presque tous les fabricants de Suisse, sinon tous, ont tenté de me copier. C'est une preuve de la valeur qu'ils attribuent à ma création, et tous, après des essais infructueux, ont dû y renoncer, et je ne connais, à l'heure actuelle, aucune concurrence à mon produit, si ce n'est le chocolat au lait en pâte de l'Anglo-Swiss Condensed Milk Co. à Cham, espèce de confiture au cacao dont la conservation est limitée et qui ne répond absolument pas aux mêmes besoins.[I believe I know with some certainty that almost all manufacturers in Switzerland, if not all, have tried to copy me. It is proof of the value they attribute to my creation, and all of them, after unsuccessful attempts, have had to give it up, and I do not know, at the present time, any competition for my product, excepting the milk chocolate paste from the Anglo-Swiss Condensed Milk Co. in Cham, a kind of cocoa jam whose shelf life is limited and which absolutely does not meet the same needs.]
Vermutlich seit Beginn der 1890er Jahre wurde die Milchschokolade auch in kleinen, dreieckigen Portionen in gepresster Pulverform und einer dreieckigen Verpackung unter dem Namen « Delta Peter » verkauft – ein Vorläufer der 1908 von Theodor Tobler auf den Markt gebrachten Toblerone![Presumably since the beginning of the 1890s, milk chocolate was also sold in small, triangular portions in pressed powder form and a triangular packaging under the name "Delta Peter" – a forerunner of the Toblerone launched by Theodor Tobler in 1908!]
