Canadian Chocolate Bars We Love!
Canadians have so many reasons to celebrate and to be proud. Canada is a great place to live, from North to South and East to West! We have excellent healthcare, clean air, and beautiful outdoor spaces.
Canadians are kind and friendly, and we have so many fabulous cultures to explore. We could talk for days about how great Canada is. But did you know Canada has some of the best chocolate bars?
Yes, best chocolate bars!
And at Candy Funhouse, we're going to share those chocolate bar brands with you right now!
Here are the Top 20 Canadian Chocolate Bars
Here is a list of Candy Funhouse's Top 20 Canadian Chocolate Bars compiled by our Candyologists. In our opinion, they are the most popular chocolate bars in Canada.
Big Turk
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 packaging; it's a combination of Turkish delight coated in a thin, light layer of Nestle Chocolate.
It was featured on CBC's "7 Canadian snacks you can't get in the U.S. and the backstory on why" and Danko Jones's "I Love Big Turk, and I cannot lie."
Big Turk is the perfect bar for chocolate lovers, with only 4 grams of fat and 60 grams of chocolate. Big Turk is the ideal alternative to an average chocolate bar.
Crunchie Bar
Cadbury Canada first introduced the Crunchie Bar in Canada in the 1960s. It is an iconic chocolate bar with a unique recipe.
Did you know that Cadbury Chocolate is made locally in Toronto? J S. Fry & Sons started the Crunchie Bar in late 1929 in the U.K. It is made of honeycomb sponge toffee.
This toffee is produced in large slabs. It is then covered in the delicious Cadbury chocolate we all love
Cherry Blossom Candy
Cherry Blossom Candy is one of the oldest candy brands in Canada. It was originally made by the Walter M. Lowney Company, which started manufacturing it in the 1890s.
Now, Hershey Canada keeps this old-fashioned candy tradition going. This nostalgic candy consists of a maraschino cherry and cherry syrup surrounded by chocolate, shredded coconut, and roasted peanuts.
Cherry Blossoms Chocolate is wrapped in tin foil and packaged in a nostalgic cardboard box. It's a sweet blast from the past!
Mr Big Chocolate Bar
The Mr Big Chocolate Bar is the biggest chocolate bar produced by Cadbury Canada (around 8 inches in length). Mr. Big Bar is very common in Canada. It is also available in Hungary, Poland, and some parts of the United States.
It's filled with vanilla wafers coated in caramel and rice crisp and then covered in delicious Cadbury chocolate. Mr. Big Chocolate Bar is the only Cadbury bar with an ice cream variant made by Nestle Canada.
Skor Bar
Launched in Canada in 1983 by Hershey's Canada. The Skor Bar is a Canadian favourite, and also a favourite by our Candy Funhouse online shoppers!
The candy bar is a slab of decadent butter toffee covered in a delicious milk chocolate coating. It is very similar to the Daim bar, a Swedish candy bar made with crunchy almonds.
Of course, the Canadian version must be better, right? YES!!
Eat More Chocolate Bar
The Lowney company deserves all the credit for starting Eat-more Candy Bars. Hershey Canada acquired them on July 1, 1987. Angus B. MacDonald named Eat-More in the early 1930s.
The candy bar is chewy and stretches when you eat it. It consists of dark toffee, peanuts, and creamy chocolate. A caramel version was released in 1995.
It replaced the dark toffee with caramel. Sadly, it has been discontinued since then. The Eat-More candy bar is beyond satisfying and an awesome retro snack.
Crunch Chocolate Bar
Munch now. Munch Some Later. Nestle Crunch is a crunchy treat made from real milk chocolate and crisped rice. This chocolate bar was introduced in 1928.
Canadians have adopted it as a fan favourite. Order the crunch chocolate bar and other Canadian favourites from Candy Funhouse today!
Crispy Crunch
Crispy Crunch is a delicious chocolate bar with a crispy peanut flake centre.
The history of Crispy Crunch has an exciting story: Do you know who invented Crispy Crunch and how? Harold Osin, a candy roller with the William Neilson company, developed this delightful Canadian chocolate bar in 1930.
Interestingly, Neilson submitted the concept for Crispy Crunch in a chocolate bar contest. Neilson won and received a $5.00 prize. The original recipe was a log-shaped bar, not like the Crispy Crunch we know and love today.
The original manufacturer, Neilson, sold the brand to Cadbury in 1996, and the sweet story continues to this day. Crispy Crunch is an iconic Canadian chocolate bar.
Twix
Twix consists of two cookie bars with a layer of caramel and coated in delicious milk chocolate. Initially made in Britain, Mars Canada makes the Canadian version of Twix bars
Twix was the first chocolate bar to combine milk chocolate, caramel, and cookies. Sweet Geniuses!
Rolo
Rolo was first introduced in 1937 in England. In 1998, Nestle bought the company and its brand from Mackintosh. Today, Rolo is made by Nestle Canada.
These delicious chocolate candies are a sweet combination of chewy caramel and milk chocolate. They are packaged in a roll of individual pieces resembling buckets of sweetness.
Many products are related to Rolo. These include Rolo biscuits, ice cream, muffins, birthday cake, and desserts. There are also cake bars, doughnuts, mini Rolos, and big Rolos. All of these use the same type of caramel. Yogurts and Easter eggs are also available.
An old fashioned candy your parents will remember from when they were kids! Order it for their birthday, right here at Candy Funhouse! They'll be thrilled to eat it again!

6. Maltesers Chocolate
Maltesers Chocolate was first introduced in the 1930s by Mars Inc. Today, Mars Canada makes the Canadian version in Markham, Ontario, using our unique recipe.

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!
Where is Aero bar i go to Canada every summer aero bar is probably the most popular!
Would like to see all these available in the US…only 6 on the list are found in ohio/pennsylvania (and i check every store -near and far -literally. )These candies must be better than the boring stuff we have here…and with being so close to Canada why aren’t these available??
Cadbury’s is British so they’re not Canadian or American.
Hey there. I do like with candyfunhouse.ca but how can transport from Canada to north iraq i mean KURDISTAN
So many of these chocolate bars are British. Jersey Milk is a good Canadian one.
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
Oh Henry? Aero? 3 Musketeers? Big Turk seriously wow!!!!!
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.
Where is Kit Kat? Bullnuts.
