Bounty (chocolate bar)

Bounty is a coconut-filled, chocolate-covered candy bar manufactured by Mars, Incorporated. Introduced in 1951 in the United Kingdom and Canada, it consists of a moist, shredded coconut interior enrobed in milk chocolate or dark chocolate, depending on the specific variety.

The bar is often sold as two individually wrapped pieces within a single package. Bounty bars are available in several flavors, with the original milk chocolate and dark chocolate versions being the most common. Other varieties have included lemon, cherry, and mango flavors, although these are typically limited editions or available only in specific regions.

Bounty bars are widely distributed in Europe, Oceania, and parts of Asia. They are marketed as a tropical-themed treat, often featuring imagery of beaches and palm trees in their advertising.

The nutritional information and ingredients can vary slightly depending on the country of sale due to differing regulations and manufacturing processes. Typically, the main ingredients include desiccated coconut, sugar, glucose syrup, milk solids (in milk chocolate varieties), vegetable fats, cocoa butter, cocoa mass, emulsifiers, and flavourings.

Bounty has remained a popular confectionery choice for several decades and is a recognizable brand within the Mars family of products. Its distinctive coconut filling and chocolate coating contribute to its unique flavor profile.
