And while I’ll forever think of belly button lint when I hear the brand’s name, this was far from something you’d find lodged in your navel. Each little egg is filled with high-quality chocolate ganache or crunchy praline infused with fruit, gianduja, and nougatine. Caramels come in all shapes and sizes, firmnesses, colors, degrees of bitterness and butteriness, and with all types of garnishes. Naming the best Chocolate Candy Bars with caramel was no easy task, but I found that Fran's Chocolates caramels offer the "pull," deliberate chew, and strategic salting that a great caramel should possess. This box includes dark caramel patties, milk double caramel, dark almond nugget, and more.

However, these real Wonka Bars stopped being sold in January 2010 because they weren't selling very well. These include Willy Wonka Chocolate Bars Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (from 1971) and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (from 2005). There's even a play called Charlie and the Chocolate Factory the Musical (from 2013) where they appear. Each movie and play shows the Wonka Bar with different wrappers.

Almost a decade after the last "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" movie hit theaters, Nestlé brought the Wonka Bar back in 2013 with two flavors. Originally, demand for the chocolate bars was high, with the brand raking in over £3 million a month in the U.K., but those sales quickly declined to just a third of that. It was not long before stores were selling the Wonka Bars at a discounted price, and Nestlé eventually discontinued the candy bars altogether. "Novelty is by its nature often short-term and Nestlé has reintroduced the Wonka brand a number of times," the company said in a statement, per The Grocer.

The best dark chocolate bar is the Beyond Good 70% Pure Dark. It’s complex but approachable and melts in your mouth beautifully. Milk chocolate lovers will swoon for the sweet and creamy Ritter Sport Alpine Milk Chocolate. These luscious chocolate bars are made with 100% cocoa butter and high quality non-GMO Fair Trade Certified coverture chocolate. Giant chocolatier Godiva leans into its nearly century-old Belgian roots to support an image of fancy chocolate.

Inch markings printed on the wrapper showed just how long it actually was. The Caravelle was similar to the 100,000 Dollar bar, but better. Think caramel mixed with Rice Crispies, covered in milk chocolate. Unfortunately, the Caravelle Bar was discontinued after Peter Paul merged with Cadbury Schweppes in 1978.

You’d be hard-pressed to find that information on a conventional chocolate bar. Who among us hasn’t broken into the emergency stash of baking chips once a chocolate craving hits? For that reason, I ate 26 chocolate bars on the hunt for the very best. (You’re welcome.) What makes for the best high-quality chocolate bar, however, depends on your preferences. There are milk chocolate lovers, extra dark chocolate purists, and fans of flavored chocolate.

Like Toblerone, the crunchy bits can still get stuck in your teeth, but this was better distributed than the Swiss giant's sugar bomb. Sure, you're getting a lot of chocolate in one bar, but that just made it more affordable in my book. Though I'd avoided Tony's in the past, I'll be giving more of the brand's bars a try.

Well, I've tried to narrow down your options by tasting 16 different popular candy bars, all to determine which are worth buying and which aren't. Of course, we all have different preferences when it comes to these treats, so we may not agree on every single product. But hopefully, through my taste-testing experience, you can choose a better one the next time you need a quick pick-me-up. I've ranked these bars from worst to best, keeping both flavor and texture in mind while assessing the quality of the ingredients. It's fitting that each square on this bar is adorned with little hearts as it was made for the milk chocolate lovers. I found it to be a top tier chocolate bar, with credit to its smooth, creamy texture and flavor that wasn't too sweet.

What’s more, we can now get cool Wonka Candy to eat the treats mentioned in the book. The first step to making the bars was to find an inexpensive and widely available chocolate bar that was long and narrow, just as Wonka’s is in the movie. This also lent itself to fitting the long name of the chocolate bar on the wrappers I was making.
