Whoppers

malted milk balls by Hershey

Whoppers are malted milk balls with an artificial flavored "chocolatey coating". They are produced by The Hershey Company. The candy is a round ball about 3⁄4 inch (20 mm). In 1947, Overland merged with Chicago Biscuit Company, Leaf Gum, and Laf Machinery. Two years later, Leaf Brands reintroduced malted milk balls under the name of "Whoppers".
