A Classic Caramel Combination
A new concept image proposes a partnership between two well-established confectionery brands: Maltesers and Werther’s Original. The mockup shows a 102g sharing pouch, a familiar format for Maltesers, but with co-branding that prominently features the cream and gold stylings of the classic Storck caramel sweet. A banner along the top labels the product as one of the ‘Real Flavour Innovation Editions’.
The image suggests a straightforward flavour swap, replacing the standard milk chocolate coating with one infused with the buttery, creamy caramel profile of Werther’s. The caption that accompanied the image read, ‘Werther’s Original Maltesers! Caramel crunch sounds UNREAL!’, pointing to the core appeal of merging a light, crisp honeycomb centre with a dense caramel flavour.
The Current Maltesers Range
While a Werther’s Original edition is purely conceptual, the Maltesers brand has expanded significantly beyond its core product. The most direct extension is Maltesers Truffles, which reworks the malt and honeycomb profile into a different format. The brand also exists in other categories entirely.
In the cake aisle, there are Maltesers Cake Bars. For home use, there is an Instant Hot Chocolate jar. The sharing pouch format is central to the brand, but it also appears in gift boxes like the Teasers Milk Chocolate Honeycomb Centerpiece and various funsize multi-bags, often bundled with other Mars products like Snickers, Twix, and M&M’s. A move into a specific co-branded flavour would be a new direction, but altering the core product for different formats is already common practice for the brand.
A Singular Flavour Identity
Werther’s Original brings a very strong flavour identity to any potential collaboration. Since its creation, the brand has been synonymous with a specific type of buttery hard caramel. While the company Storck has since launched variations, including soft-centred and sugar-free versions, the core ‘Original’ flavour remains its anchor.
This makes it a powerful ingredient brand for a conceptual crossover. Unlike more generic ‘caramel’ flavourings, the Werther’s name signifies a specific, recognisable taste profile that has been a market presence for decades. Its inclusion on the Maltesers pack immediately communicates the intended flavour without any need for further description.
What the real range looks like
The genuine Maltesers range includes formats like Maltesers Truffles, Cake Bars, Chocolate Clusters, and Instant Hot Chocolate. A Werther’s Original edition would be a new step into co-branded flavours for the core chocolate ball, which currently exists mainly in its original milk chocolate form across various pack sizes.

Frequently asked questions
- What are Werther’s Original Maltesers?
- This is a concept for a new Maltesers variant. The idea is to coat the standard light honeycomb centre with a milk chocolate flavoured like the classic Werther’s Original butter caramel sweets.
- Does the Maltesers brand often release new flavours?
- The brand has focused more on new formats than new flavours for its core product. The current range includes spin-offs like Maltesers Truffles and Cake Bars, but flavour innovations are less common than for other major confectionery brands.
- Are Werther’s Original Maltesers available to buy?
- No, this product is not real. It is a Snackfish — a mockup created by the online page UK Snack Attack — and it is not sold anywhere.
