The MALTESERS® Bar is returning to shelves, bringing back everything consumers loved and missed about the fan favourite.

“After first thrilling fans and shaking up the chocolate aisle thanks to its distinct bar format seeking something lighter, a little more fun but still craving something irresistibly delicious,” the brand said. “Its unexpected exit at the end of 2021, left a noticeable gap for loyal fans, with many demanding its return.” 

Delivering a uniquely playful twist on a well-known favourite, it features light, crispy miniature MALTESERS pieces suspended in smooth, creamy milk chocolate.

“Reimagining the classic in bar form, the MALTESERS Bar is an ingenious solution to keep those famously cheeky chocolate balls from rolling away, or having to be shared. The result? A perfectly balanced combination of texture and taste, wrapped into one velvety bar.” 

Mars Snacking Australia, Bitesize Portfolio Director, Mel Alforque says, “We’ve heard loud and clear just how much Aussies missed the MALTESERS Bar – in fact, it never really left the conversation, so bringing it back felt like the obvious move. 

“It takes everything people already love about MALTESERS and makes it easier to enjoy, in a way that fits into real life. It’s light, it’s uniquely delicious, and it doesn’t take itself too seriously, which is exactly the kind of energy people are looking for when they want a treat.”

The MALTESERS Bar is available in selected retailers from early June and major retailers nationwide from July.
