Caramac Mackintosh's introduced Caramac in the UK in 1959. The name is a combination of "caramel" and "Mackintosh". While looking like a chocolate bar but not made with cocoa it meant it had a unique flavour.

Nutty The Rowntrees bar was a chewy fudge and caramel bar encased in peanuts. They became a popular treat during the 1970s however most have forgotten about them today. Dream White chocolate fans loved this Cadbury bar. It was originally launched in the UK in 2002 but disappeared from the shelve due to lack of demand. It did come back in 2019 under the name of Cadbury White, initially as an Asda exclusive but has since been made available elsewhere.
Topic ThisMars-made bar was made up of hazelnuts, nougat and caramel covered in chocolate. It was launched in 1962 with a slogan which became a household favourite of "a hazelnut in every bite." It disappeared quietly in 2021 sparking furious reaction from fans when they realised it was gone without warning.
