Maltesers

Chocolate-covered malt spheres

Maltesers is a British brand of chocolate candy consisting of light, crunchy malted milk balls covered in milk chocolate.

Made by Mars, they're known for their distinctive honeycomb-textured centers and spherical shape.

The name plays on "malt" and suggests a connection to Malta, though the product is thoroughly British.

She shared a bag of Maltesers at the cinema.

In the UK, they're as ubiquitous as M&M's are in America.
