About Nóa Konfekt
Nóa Konfekt is the boxed assortment that has been a fixture of Icelandic Christmas since production began between 1935 and 1945. It is called Nóa Konfekt rather than Nóa Síríus Konfekt for a reason the company still explains: in those years Nói and Síríus were separate businesses under one roof, and Síríus sold the chocolate to Nói, which made the assortment. The boxes run from 125 grams to a 985-gram Christmas case, and the company also makes the Easter eggs that date from the same period.

It became a chocolate maker in 1933 by buying the Danish factory Síríus from Galle & Jessen, merged the two names into Nói Síríus hf. in 1977, and has been largely held throughout its history by the same family, the descendants of the wholesaler Hallgrímur Benediktsson, whose company took a majority stake in 1924. Women have chaired its board without interruption since 1954.
