3 Musketeers

Fluffy nougat bar

3 Musketeers is a chocolate candy bar made by Mars, consisting of whipped nougat covered in milk chocolate.

The name references Alexandre Dumas's novel, though the connection to swashbuckling is purely marketing.

Originally sold as three small bars in different flavors, it became a single bar in 1945.

She grabbed a 3 Musketeers from the checkout display.
