![]() ![]() The venerable Mars Bar consisted of caramel and nougat covered in chocolate. The original Mars Bar was created in 1932 by Forrest Mars. Unfortunately, it seems like white chocolate just doesn’t enjoy the kind of overwhelming popularity that milk chocolate has always had with candy lovers. Cadbury and the other candy companies should have realized by now that many people take their candy bar choices very seriously and act accordingly. At least some people are very passionate about this product so hopefully their passion will be rewarded someday. By June of 2018 more than 4,000 people had signed a petition hoping to convince Cadbury to bring back the beloved candy bar. However, there is still hope for lovers of this candy, because it became available in Australia in 2015. Putting the somewhat awkward name aside, this white chocolate and chocolate bar continued to have a following, but Cadbury decided to discontinue this bar in 2008. The variation was only sold in the United Kingdom and Ireland and was renamed Flake Snow in 2003. This Flake was introduced in 2000 and featured a white chocolate center covered in milk chocolate. The Cadbury Flake varieties have been more popular in Europe and some candy bar lovers are still upset that the company discontinued the Snowflake. In America the generous chocolate bars and the creme eggs sold at Easter have always been popular products. SnowflakeĬadbury is a British chocolate company with an international following. It would be nice if the Seven Up candy bar could make a comeback because it seems like the variety of flavors combined with the chocolate coating would be a big hit once again. This is a fine candy bar, but for fans of the classic Seven Up candy bar the Sky Bar can only be a distant second. ![]() The four fillings are fudge, caramel, vanilla and peanut and sound like they add up to a decent substitute if not a complete replacement. The Necco company sells a candy bar called a Sky Bar, but this treat doesn’t quite measure up because it only has four chambers with four fillings instead of the much loved seven. Although this candy bar hasn’t been available since 1979 there is still a lot nostalgia for its delicious combination of chocolate and sweet fillings. The line up of fillings changed over time, but included coconut, butterscotch caramel, buttercream, fudge, Brazil nut, cherry cream, and orange jelly. The unique thing about the Seven Up was its seven pockets or cells with each one containing a different filling. Seven Up the candy bar, on the other hand, was invented in the 1930’s by Pearson’s Candy and it seems a little strange that the similar name was not a source of contention between the two companies. Seven Upħ-Up the lemon-lime soda was invented in the late 1920’s and was first offered to the public only weeks before the start of the Great Depression. This candy bar was a bright spot during some of the world’s darker times. In one advertisement a cartoon prospector tried to entice customers to go ahead and eat a Denver Sandwich Bar because “There’s no use searchin’ any further – Denver Sandwich hits the spot every time.” People who remember eating this candy bar when they were children have very fond memories of it. Some of the advertising referred to the Denver Sandwich Bar as a “candy lunch bar,” which was pretty much an early version of an energy bar or meal replacement bar for people too busy to sit down and eat a regular meal. This candy bar was sold for 5 cents in 1947, but there are also vintage advertisements from the era that show a price of 10 cents as well. The Denver Sandwich was introduced in the early 1930’s during the Great Depression and this candy bar was sometimes thought of as a meal. The candy bar consists of wafers, nuts, caramel and chocolate. The Denver Sandwich was created by the Sperry Candy Company and is not to be confused with the Denver Sandwich which is made with eggs, ham and peppers and eaten for breakfast. However, while it lasted, this sweet treat was a favorite among many candy bar lovers. ![]() The Denver Sandwich Chocolate Bar labored under a strange name that might have contributed to its ultimate demise.
