Three Musketeers
Â
Three Musketeers has always been a favorite of mine. The candy bar is so simple and so light, that you almost feel like you are not being “bad� when you eat it. In fact, a whole advertising campaign has been built around the fact that it is not an overly-sweet, “heavy� chocolate bar. The secret is the whipped nougat center. Originally, the bar had three centers: chocolate, vanilla and strawberry when it was introduced in 1932. Hence the name “Three Musketeers�. Since then, the centers have dwindled down to just the whipped chocolate nougat, but the name was so popular the Mars Candy Company decided to keep it.
With 45% less fat than the leading candy bar, it’s easy to see why Three Musketeers is so popular. The whipped chocolate nougat center is light and fluffy. It tastes like a chocolate cloud…mmmmmm…chocolate clouds. The whipped nougat is enrobed in rich milk chocolate that is melt-in-your-mouth yummy. It is light but chocolaty and it is sweetly satisfying. I like to get a package of mini Three Musketeers and eat them one at a time – they’re like little, fluffy chocolate pillows. It’s a very simple candy bar, but a delicious one at that.
