Maltesers are a Confectionery manufactured by Mars, Inc . They consist of a spherical Malt Honeycomb centre, surrounded by milk Chocolate . They are most popular in the United Kingdom , Ireland and Japan . Maltesers come in either Plastic bags (ranging in size from small 'fun-size' upwards) or in larger Cardboard boxes and tubes. Maltesers' Slogan is "No ordinary chocolate" (replacing its previous slogan, "Nothing pleases like Maltesers"). Maltesers, originally known as Energy Balls, were invented by Forrest Mars Sr. in 1936 . The current name is a Portmanteau of the words "malt" and "teasers". Despite the spelling, there is no connection with the nation of Malta or Maltese people. The mystery of how the chocolate covers the porous biscuit centre is a closely guarded Secret . Ice Cream , White Chocolate , and Dark Chocolate versions are also available, as is a chocolate-flavoured malt Drink , similar to Horlicks and Ovaltine . Television Adverts describe Maltesers as 'the lighter way to enjoy chocolate'. The Australian version also contains the line, "Made in Australia...... exported to the world." A similar confectionary is manufactured in the United States . Known as Whoppers , they are Chocolate -coated Malted Milk balls produced by The Hershey Company . INGREDIENTS
