The Kondimafabrik AG was the first and only large-scale producers in southern German country with tough competition in the north. Since the Rohmassen has always and still a lot sooner than today to seasonal items involved was very soon in addition to the production of fruit and ice cream canned begun. Shortly afterwards came as a logical consequence of the preparation of the nuts and almonds for the Rohmassen the preparations. The nougat production was in the late 20s. When the war began relatively quickly set a shortage of raw materials from abroad, so that the Rohmassenherstellung largely had to be set. Instead, a special vitaminreiche catering to supply the Navy, particularly the U-boat crew, as canned produce. After the ausgebombt completely Kondima 1944, adopted after the end of the war in the manufacture of the complete product range, added to chocolate, again.
