Milky Way is a soft and creamy candy bar consisting of fluffy nougat topped with caramel and coated in milk chocolate. First introduced in 1923, it was inspired by the malted milkshakes popular at the time. Its smooth, melt-in-your-mouth texture makes it a favorite among chocolate lovers who enjoy a light and airy treat. The American Milky Way differs from its European counterpart, which does not include caramel. Over the years, variations like Milky Way Midnight (dark chocolate) and Milky Way Simply Caramel have been introduced to appeal to different taste preferences.
