Top chocolate bar in America

Every single one of us has a love affair with chocolates that come in different forms and packaging - that is, a candy bar, bite-sized delights, baggies, snack packs, theatre boxes, tubs, and, of course, the handy packets. Me, myself, and I, in fact, have been debating as to which chocolate treat comes first. But, heck, why choose, right?


But, for the sake of discussion, allow me to share with you the renowned chocolate brands that have lorded it over other sweet treats over the years. Some of these have been around the American for decades and have continuously courted and made people fall over themselves from all over the world. Read on and find out if your chocolate bar of choice made it to our “Top 5 Chocolate Candy Bars for 2020.”


Here we go!


  • Hershey’s® Milk Chocolate Bar
  • Hershey’s Milk Chocolate Bar is an iconic brand that belongs to a league of its own. Where do I even begin? Hershey’s is an all American brand that was founded by Milton S. Hershey in 1894. Now, after more than two centuries later, Hershey’s Milk Chocolate Candy Bar sells a whopping 250 million chocolates worldwide! Can you beat that? I don’t think any candy bar can come close to this.


    Hershey’s is a snack bar, a dessert, a party favourite, a campsite treat, a holiday special, and, yes, highly-coveted Halloween trick-or-treat prize. This candy bar is also one of the best ways to surprise your family with, a rectangular confection to eat with friends, a gift for that special someone, or a reward to yourself after a long day at work.


    Whatever the occasion, season, and generation, Hershey’s Milk Chocolate Bar is and will always hit the spot for every chocolate and candy lover. There aren’t enough words to describe this delectable brand. It’s just best to grab a bar and enjoy it! Visit the American Grocer to order for your stash at home and in the office.


  • Reese’s® Peanut Butter Milk Chocolate Bar 
  • Once again, we come to a point wherein describing something so heavenly as Reese’s Peanut Butter Milk Chocolate Bar becomes a tad bit difficult. The candy bar’s name in itself is a mouthful and it speaks of only creamy, buttery, chocolatey, best-of-both-worlds kind of truth that candy lovers are fully aware of. 


    Reese’s Peanut Butter Milk Chocolate Bar was the brainchild of Harry Burnett “H.B.” Reese, a former employee of Milton S. Hershey back in 1917. The meeting of two great chocolatiers would change the history of chocolates forever. H.B. Reese moved on to putting up his own chocolate-making company. And, boy, it turned out to be a successful enterprise! His maiden product? Why his to-die-for peanut butter cups, of course! And, several decades later, Reese’s Peanut Butter Milk Chocolate Bar was born to break more confectionery ground.


    Reese’s Peanut Butter Milk Chocolate Bar is a fantastic treat that does not need an occasion. It never disappoints and that’s why we love it so much!


  • Snickers® Chocolate Bar
  • Did you know that there are about 400 million Snickers Chocolate Bars sold every year in the US? That huge bite was reported by Wallstreet 24/7 no less! That’s a lot of hunger pangs satisfied! 


    A Snickers Chocolate Bar is a widely recognized candy bar that’s made with nougat coated with caramel and peanuts then lathered by milk chocolate. From the inside out, it’s the kind of chocolate that’s uniquely out of this world.


    Founded by Frank Mars in 1930, the craving-staving power candy was named after Frank’s favourite horse. Interestingly, Snickers was sold as “Marathon® Chocolate Bars” in the UK until 1990. Today, Snickers Chocolate Bars remain to be a top contender for the utter enjoyment of sweet indulgences. 


  • Kit Kat® Crisp Wafer Bar
  • Hitting the shelves in the 1970s, Kit Kat Crisp Wafer Bar has been breaking not just that crackle-worthy morsel but, more importantly, a record of 192 million wafer bars per year! Nestle® Company is responsible for its countrywide phenomenon while the Hershey’s® Team lord it over in the UK.


    Kit Kat Crisp Wafer Bar shot to fame as the staple of comfort foods - a sweet treat that promises not just the ultimate satisfaction of chocolate and wafer combined but also the carefree feeling post the pleasure that only Kit Kat® can give.


    Kit Kat Crisp Wafer Bar never fell short from the expectations of many. It’s a delightful treat that remains to be speakable by mouths of babes, playground pals, teeny boppers, young adults, seasoned chocolate aficionados, and more. 


    There’s just no way that people would miss out on a brand ‘o fun like Kit Kat® Crisp Wafer Bar.


  • Twix®
  • Oh, but a sweet mention of its name drives everyone into a frenzy! And why not? Who would dare say ‘no!’ to a caramel-covered crunchy biscuit that’s coated with milk chocolate? Tell me who does not love Twix and I’d say you’re lying. Simply because everybody loves Twix® candy bars. It’s the truth with a sweet, satisfying bite to it.


    Twix candy bars belong to Frank Mars umbrella of chocolatey treats and has its following. It boasts of a whopping 161 million caramel-and-chocolate crackles per year. Twix is definitely as historical as it is delicious because it came out as a “snack” when the 1980s was starting to revolutionize not just the US but the whole world.


    “Twix for my sweets, sugar my honey..” You sang that, too, didn’t you? Well, you’ll be singing your way back and forth to grocery stores because Twix has definitely got you hooked.
