And at Candy Funhouse we're going to share those with you right now!

Top 20 Canadian Chocolate Bars

Here is a list of Candy Funhouse's Top 20 Canadian Chocolate Candy Bars that our candy lovers have compiled. In our sweet opinion these are the most popular candy in Canada. It was hard and frustrating. But, the journey was very sweet.

20.Big Turk

Big Turk Canadian Chocolate Bar

A classic Turkish delight chocolate bar coated in delicious milk chocolate. One of the most unique chocolate bars in Canada, made by Nestle Canada. Many Canadians have had a love/hate relationship with this mysterious chocolate bar. With its red, white and blue packaging, it will often remind people of the look of Bazooka Joe bubble gum or even toothpaste! Don't be fooled by its packing, it's a combination of jelly coated in a thin, light layer of Nestle Chocolate. Featured on CBC's "7 Canadian snacks you can't get in the U.S. and the backstory on why" and Danko Jones "I Love Big Turk, and I cannot lie". The Big Turk is the perfect bar for chocolate lovers with only 4 grams of fat and 60 grams of chocolate. A healthy chocolate bar?! The Big Turk is the ideal alternative to an average chocolate bar. Are you looking to buy Nestle Big Turk Candy Bars? Not a problem.

The absolute finest Canadian chocolate bar hasn’t been around since the 1960s. I refer to the 5 Star, made in Canada NOT the India or South Africa bars of the same name. The Canadian treats were toasted coconut, caramel, chocolate heaven. I miss them still!

Great that there is a list of the most popular candy chocolate bars sold in Canada. However, are there quantifiable data to support this ranking? I would be curious to see the data supporting this.

Also, if there is a seasonal breakdown where we see some candies sell more than others, that would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

They’re just saying that these are eaten in Canada right? They’re not saying that they’re all Canadian. Can’t be. I mean, as soon as something is Cadbury’s – they can’t pass it off as Canadian. And Flake? Maltesers? Surely they’re just saying that Canadians eat them, not originated them.

I agree Canadian chocolate bars are the best. Only thing missing on this list is my all time favorite, Oh Henry! I thought it would make the top 20?

You didn’t include the Aero Bar; one of my favorite, did the bubbled chocolate thing before Mirage. I would give this bar serious consideration.

When I lived in Toronto MANY years and centuries ago, you used to be able to buy two different chocolate “bars” – one dark chocolate with 8 breakaway squares with 4 different fillings and the other, milk chocolate, with six break away portions that each had a different filling… Anyone know who made them and why they are no longer? Incredibly saddening…

Not American

Your lowest rated one on this list (#20 – Big Turk)… I dunno, can’t we substitute this with something (ANYTHING!) else? My wife makes the world’s most amazing fudge – although it’s only sold at the Edmonton Weekly Farmer’s Market.

I think I was influenced to hate Turkish Delight (this is just my opinion; I’m certain that it is a staple of many a Canadian’s sugar fix) from an early age. Too many decades ago to count, me and my family were visiting an elderly relative, and she offered my brother and I Turkish Delight. We each took a bite of one, then we told her that they were “Mmm good”! As soon as she went back to conversing with our parents, we surreptitiously secreted them in napkins, and then into our pockets.

I apologize for babbling, but the next time I came across “Turkish Delight” was when I was reading “The Chronicles of Narnia”. In one of the books in the series, a young boy is enticed to betray his compatriots by being offered unlimited TURKISH DELIGHT!! I could never get over that.

As a footnote, the “Adult Swim” cartoon “Robot Chicken” did a parody of this exact scene (one I won’t describe, as I assume Candy Funhouse blogs need to be “All Ages”).

I’ve been trying to find out where I can buy the sweet & salty peanut, dairy milk chocolate bar in bulk. So far, I’ve had no luck. I called the customer service number on the wrapper & was told that Costco had it, so I went and signed up, got the executive level card and found nothing. Help!!!

Canadian Dairy Milk chocolate bars are the best. I’ve tried them all around the world and the ones made in Canada are the best. True fact.
