Secret symbol spotted on Toblerone bar by boy, 10 – here’s what it means
A BOY has discovered a secret symbol on the packaging of Toblerone chocolate bars - and the majority of people have never seen it before.
The 10-year-old's mum said her son spotted a secret bear disguised in the image of the Swiss mountains on the shiny gold triangular box with red lettering.
Mum Stephanie said the youngster was enjoying his first classic honey and almond nougat Toblerone and immediately asked her: "What's the bear for?"
She said: "What bear?"
Posting the interaction online, she said: "I was today years old when I found out there’s a bear in the Toblerone logo."
It wasn't long before thousands of people said they had never seen the animal hiding on the packaging either.

Several Toblerone fans revealed that the bear represents the Bern bear - as the chocolate is made in Bern, Switzerland.
A helpful commenter said: "Toblerone comes from Bern, Switzerland. Also known as the city of bears."
Another explained the chocolate was made in Bern in the 1990s and the city's coat of arms featured a bear.
