Kinder Surprise, also known as a Kinder Egg, is a confection originally intended for children in the form of a chocolate egg containing a small toy, often requiring assembly.

In Europe, their popularity has spread beyond their intended market, and they have become a minor cult phenomenon among adults. There is even a thriving collector’s market for the toys. This is especially true in Germany, where the manufacturer includes higher-quality toys than those available elsewhere. There are many types of toys available, but some of the most popular with collectors include the ever-changing series of small hand-painted figures, which are said to be in every seventh egg; cartoon characters; metal figures and jigsaw puzzles. Seasonal eggs are introduced around the holidays, such as the limited-edition creche collections found around Christmas, and the huge ones found at Easter (extremely popular in Italy).

h- HenryO Oh Henry! is a candy bar containing peanuts, caramel and fudge, coated in chocolate and contrary to popular belief, it contains absolutely no nougat. It was first introduced in 1920, by the Curtiss Candy Company of Chicago, Illinois. According to legend, Oh Henry! was originally named after a boy who frequented the Williamson company, flirting with the girls who made the candy. The name is also said to be a homage to American writer, O. Henry. These stories are probably apocryphal.

The candy bar was invented by a man named Tom Henry of Arkansas City, Kansas. Tom Henry ran a candy company called the Peerless candy factory, and in 1919 he started making the Tom Henry candy bar. He sold the candy bar to Curtiss Candy Company in 1920 where they later changed the name to “Oh Henry!”. Henry’s family now runs a candy factory in Dexter, Kansas that sells “momma henry” bars, which are near identical to the original candy bar.

Starbar (Also known as Wunderbar in Canaada and Germany) was Cadbury’s first real attempt to establish a competitor for Mars’ Marathon / Snickers bar. Initially popular in the mid-1970s, the Starbar largely exists due to a small but loyal fanbase, as the product has not been advertised or promoted for years. In the mid-70s Starbar was called Nunch, and its TV advertisement featured a dark-haired woman walking alongside a white horse which was pulling a barge down a canal. Nunch was rebranded Nudge and in the 1980s it briefly became “peanut Boost,” only to return to Starbar as popularity of the Boost bar waned.

Yorkie is a chocolate bar made by Nestlé. It was originally branded by Rowntree’s of York, hence the name. Compared to bars such as Dairy Milk, it is very chunky, and has been aimed at men.

In the 1980s for example, toy Corgi Yorkie lorries were available and TV ads featured truckers. The recent ad campaign made this more explicit with the slogan It’s not for girls, which caused controversy. Nestlé also received complaints about this campaign from Norwegian and UK customers, who found it sexist and distasteful. Special versions for use in Ministry of Defence ration packs read It’s not for civvies. In 2006 a special edition that was for girls was sold, wrapped in pink. Aside from the original milk chocolate bar, several variants are available, such as “biscuit and raisin” flavour, “honeycomb” flavour, and Yorkie Ice Cream.
