The Tobler postcard series with Disney characters was published in the mid-1950s, and Part 2 ends with Lady and the Tramp (1955). The Tobler company was created by Emil Baumann and Theodor Tobler (1876–1941) in Bern, Switzerland, in 1908. Emil Baumann, the cousin of Theodor Tobler, created the unique Toblerone recipe consisting of milk chocolate including nougat, almonds, and honey. Theodor Tobler came up with the distinctive teardrop shape and packaging. The product's name is a portmanteau combining Tobler's name with the Italian word 'torrone' (a type of nougat).
