Pålægschokolade ("chocolate to put on bread") are thin slices of chocolate (or vekao) that are used as a topping (in Danish, pålæg) on bread, such as rugbrød or white bread, similar to how chocolate spread is used in many countries. It is common in Denmark.[1][2][3]

It is available in both light and dark chocolate, with the light variety being more common (the Danish confectionery Toms sells 70% light and 30% dark).

It was originally introduced to the Danish market by Galle & Jessen in 1963.[4]
