The Golden Ticket that grants five "lucky" children the chance to visit Willy Wonka's chocolate factory is hidden inside the famous chocolate bars, with the candy serving as a catalyst for the whole story. Still, there were a few promising signs that the beloved candy bar could return. For one, Ferrero released a line of chocolate bars based on their beloved candies in 2022. And second, the release of the musical "Wonka" — starring Timothée Chalamet — could kick start another Wonka Bar campaign, as has been the case with previous movie adaptations. In 1971, a film production company teamed up with Quaker Oats to make a movie version of Roald Dahl's beloved children's book. Part of the problem with Quaker's Wonka Bar strategy was that the 1971 film simply wasn't very popular in its initial release.

Akesson's Organic Chocolate bars have won a multitude of awards and is regarded as one of the best craft chocolate bars on the market. Raaka is devoted to making uncommonly delicious chocolate that captures the brighter, bolder, and fruitier side of cacao. They make every bar from scratch with unroasted cacao beans, sourced from growers they trust and admire. The unique flavour of their unroasted chocolate is part place, part process. They craft their bars in celebration of each cacao origin's unique character.

From favors to candy dishes to ice cream toppings, Hershey assortments are the perfect pairing for any party or gathering. If Snickers is your favorite chocolate bar, you're not alone. It's nabbed the top spot in lists of America's best-selling candies for years. The bar that started it all, although the (slightly sour) taste is still somewhat ... Some attribute Hershey's bars' unique flavor (which has remained unchanged since 1900) to spoiled milk, though the company vehemently denies it.

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.

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.

However, these real Wonka Bars stopped being sold in January 2010 because they weren't selling very well. These include Willy Wonka & the Premium Chocolate Bars 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.

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.

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 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.

Nestlé Japan also released a toy truck containing these bars. However, they have since been discontinued after the sale to Ferrero. The wrappers of the 1971 version are brown with an orange and pink border with a top hat over the "W" in Wonka, similar to the film's logo, and the Chocolate Candy Bars bars resemble Cadbury Dairy Milk chocolate bars.
