Product Description
Maltesers are a spherical malt honeycomb centre, surrounded by milk chocolate. They are most popular in the United Kingdom, Ireland and Japan. Maltesers' are 'the lighter way to enjoy chocolate'. Maltesers, originally known as Energy Balls, were invented by Forrest Mars Sr. in 1936. The current name is a portmanteau of the words "malt" and "teasers". Despite the spelling, there is no connection with the nation of Malta or Maltese people. The mystery of how the chocolate covers the porous biscuit centre is a closely guarded secret.

I'll stick to Whoppers, thank you very much. It's not like I don't enjoy expensive high end chocolate, either. These things have a weird aftertaste and too thick a gloppy layer of chocolate on them. I know they're supposed to be "better" malted milk balls but you can have them. I think most of the hype comes from literary people who liked Bridget Jones Diary and wanted to like these.

Go ahead and forget everything you think you know about the delicacy known as chocolate covered maltballs. Now try these -> Mars Maltesers chocolate coated pieces
These little jewels are made by the same company, MARS, but they are from a different manufacturing plant in the UK. The chocolate is rich and creamy, the malt center is crisp, crunchy, and clean. The entire experience is different than what we have in the US known as "Whoppers" and some lesser known regional brands.
But be careful; once I tried Maltesers, I cannot put what I had grown to know and love in my mouth anymore. I'm scouring the web for these babies and I found them here on Amazon. Lucky for me they come in multipacks! Mars Maltesers 37g x 5 Pack
Enjoy
