Would these happen to be with dark chocolate, vanilla-cream filling 
and gold-foil wrap, like this ( 
http://www.toms.dk/html/galle___jessen_produkter_-
_chokoladefr_er.html )?  That company also makes the chocolate 
turtles, with a rhum-toffee-cream filling (they are absolutely 
*delicious*).

Galle & Jessen, owned by Toms, has produced chocolate-frogs for 
nearly a century, proudly claiming that they are the largest filled 
frogs sold in Denmark (indicating that also other companies produce 
filled chocolate frogs).  Toms also owns Taverners, which sells 
tinned drops, and Anthon Berg - renowned producers of fine amrcipan 
confectionaries and supplier by appointment to the Royal Danish Court 
(I am starting to sound like an advertisement company, I'm afraid).  
Marcipan, btw, is reputed to have beneficial effects on cholesterol, 
so just start indulging!
