With October and then Halloween just around the corner, I thought it would be fun to rank my favorite chocolate bars. Yeah! Why the hell not?
I have both UK & US chocolate on this list but my heart still mostly belongs to American junk food. It’s what I grew up with! But I know most people prefer British chocolate. I also have a few things on the list that aren’t exactly chocolate “bars”. Number three is iffy. Oh well – Close enough. Oh, and this will actually be a Top 20. Yeah! Why the hell not?
So here are My Top Ten (Twenty) Chocolate Bars, counting down to my favorite. (But in all honesty, I prefer chips. Or crisps as they’re known in the UK…) 😉
Honorable Mentions:
20. Whatchamacallit
19. US Mars Bar (The UK Mars Bar is closer to a US Milky Way)
18. US Milky Way (The UK Milky Way is closer to a US 3 Musketeers but not as good)
17. TIE: Munchies & Rolo
16. Minstrels
15. Walnut Whip
14. Reece’s Peanut Butter Cups
13. Hershey Bar With Almonds
12. Cow Tales (do they still do these in the US? Not sure they qualify as chocolate, though)
11. Twix
Top Ten:
10. Maltesers (like US Whoppers)
9. Cadbury Dairy Milk (And I also like the current variant with the popping candy & jelly beans in it)
8. Cadbury Creme Egg (UK or US – the yummy gunk in the center tastes the same)
5. Kit Kat (In the UK, I prefer the Dark Chocolate Kit Kat)
3. Flipz Chocolate Covered Pretzels
**I was going to make this into a poll but there are just too many types of chocolate bars. So tell me in the comments what your favorites are! 🙂 And I’ll actually catch up on replying to your comments this weekend. Sorry to those who have been commenting – I’ve fallen weeks behind on my blog!
Bounty! I do also enjoy Snickers and Kitkats and South African Cadburys Top Deck which is milk on the bottom and white on top.
Bounty has coconut, right? I’m not a coconut gal. I think my friend from work (from South Africa) has also mentioned Top Deck – sounds good! : )
Kit Kat is my ultimate fave 🙂
YAY! It’s a definite fave for me. I’ll go ages without eating most on this list but do love the top five. : )
I’m more a savoury person but when I DO fancy chocolate I can go pretty mad ha ha, this was a great top 10 😀
Thanks, Emma! I’m actually far more of a savoury person as well. Although I also go MAD on chocolate every once in a while! : )
Haha me too! It’s like when I do fancy it, I go really mad! (and then feel sick)
I’m loyal to my UK chocolate bars, but white chocolate Flipz are to die for!
– Allie
UK people will always prefer UK chocolate. : ) I’m not big on white chocolate but should try the Flipz ones – probably tastes interesting with pretzels!
Awesome list! I love Kit Kat, Bar-One, Crunchie, Whispers, Twix, Tempo, Cadbury Mint Bubbly, a FRESH Chocolate Log (otherwise that marshmallow is just not what it should be)… okay, I might just have to stop my list now, because I will go on forever and ever and ever. I freaking LOVE chocolate.
Zoë! Lol. I know you like your chocolate – I remember some of your posts with food. : ) I’m SO catching up on your blog this month – I have most of my October posts ready so I’m going to raid my favorite blogs finally! Hmm. I don’t know all your chocolate. I don’t know Bar-One, Tempo or Chocolate Log. You had me at marshmallow, though! Love a bit of marshmallow. : )
Don’t worry – I need to catch up on so much reading. I was studying for tests again, so everything else took backseat again. Oh my goodness, I would be heartbroken without Bar-Ones or Tempos. Bar-Ones have malt infused nougat through the centre and caramel and are covered in thick chocolate – just DELICIOUS. Tempos are layered chocolates with biscuit and caramel. Hmmmm. Now I want to go downstairs and buy chocolate. A lot of it. xD
You’re making me hungry! And I just started a diet today, dammit. Again. ; )
I see the classics take up a good portion of your top ten…kudos. 😉
Thanks! Hehe. I think that’s just because I’m old… ; )
I am so hungry after looking at this. Cadbury Dairy Milk is amazing.
Sorry about that… ; ) It really is a great chocolate bar! : )
One of the best.
Hahaha! Nice one! ; ) Notice that wasn’t on my list. I don’t think I ever actually tried a Baby Ruth…
My actual answer would probably be Heath. Do Mallomars count?
I think anything counts when it comes to my lists – I managed to put chocolate covered pretzels on here. ; ) I think I tried a Heath once (didn’t like) but not sure I’ve ever had a Mallomar… Looks like something I’d like.
The best ever was Milk Shake. Can’t figure out why Mars stopped making them years ago. As for the list…bring ’em on!
Hmm… I’ve never heard of Milk Shake! : )
They were made with malted milk. I think it’s been at least twenty years since they were discontinued.
Hmm. So I’m certainly old enough to have seen them around! But can’t say I remember them. Sound yummy. : )

Great list! It’s funny I just did a list of my favorite candy in movies too. https://sgliput.wordpress.com/2016/09/10/my-top-twelve-candy-in-movies/
Not a fan of Cadbury, but I love Crunch, Twix, Reese’s, and especially Peanut M&Ms. I could eat those all day!
Thanks! Yay – another M&M’s fan. Ah! lol – I was going to do candy in movies at some point but I went all “healthy” and did my top ten fruit & vegetables in movies instead. ; ) I’ll check out your list. E.T. better be on it…. ! : )

Fun list! 🙂 My favorite chocolate candy treat is Reese’s Peanut Butter cups. I have no self control when it comes to those things.
Thanks! Ah, I do like those too even though I’m not a huge peanut butter fan. But there’s something about the combination in Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups that make them really yummy! : )
Great list Mutant!
I actually don’t like chocolate, so this list doesn’t really speak to me.
As a teen, I’d eat whatchamacalit’s every so often, but haven’t had one in decades, so I wouldn’t know what it tastes like.
I also don’t like Peanut Butter, but I use to eat Reeses pieces too 🙂
I know, I’m weird 🙂
Lol. I already knew you were weird. ; ) I haven’t had a Whatchamacallit in years, either – just remember liking them at a young age. But I’ve never liked Reese’s Pieces.
We all have our quirks 😉
Lovely post! 😀 I don’t like that much chocolate in the UK or the States as it has much more sugar than the one that I’ve grown up with here in Finland. But when I lived in the UK, I always bought Maltesers when I went to a cinema. So they’re my favourite. I occasionally enjoy KitKat Chunky or some Cadbury too.
Oh cool – didn’t know you’d lived in the UK. : ) Yeah, I think everyone prefers what they grew up with. I’ll always like American chocolate the most even though every other country seems to hate American chocolate.
Yeah, I was an au pair but that was ages ago. I do visit London or some other cities yearly, though. Love the country. I’m actually going there this month again. 🙂
3 Musketeer’s bar was my favorite in high school. Now it is Reese’s peanut butter cups.
Yay! A 3 Musketeers fan! : ) It’s funny – I’m not crazy about peanut butter but Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups are yummy.
I am not a fan of chocolate or peanut butter but put together I find it delicious.
