Caramilk is a caramel-filled candy bar made by Cadbury Adams in Canada. It was first sold in 1968.[1]

Variations available, some of them limited editions, include Caramilk made with dark chocolate maple, chocolate, or cappuccino. The standard bar is not actually made with chocolate, and is simply listed as "candy" on the wrapper. "Chunky" (thicker) versions called Caramilk "Thick" and cylindrical versions called "Caramilk Rolls" (similar to Rolo) have also been introduced.

Advertising campaigns

One of the advertising campaigns for Caramilk bars revolved around the question of how the center of the confection was put into the chocolate exterior. This theme led to the production of more than 15 separate television advertisements since the candy was introduced, making the series one of the most productive advertising efforts in Canadian history.[1] The "Caramilk Secret" ad campaign was conceived by Gary Prouk when he was at Doyle Dane Bernbach. When Prouk left DDB to join Scali McCabe Sloves, the Cadbury account went with him. One notable advertisement involved two conehead aliens who were complimenting each other on successfully concealing the secret from humans, and also creating some of earth's other long-standing works of wonder (e.g. the pyramids).

Another ad, featuring Leonardo da Vinci drawing the Mona Lisa as she eats a Caramilk has won a Clio award.[2][3]

Production

Caramilk bars are produced at one location, the company's Gladstone Chocolate Factory in Toronto.[4]
