Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:No footnotes Шаблон:Infobox prepared food Carambar is a brand of chewy caramel candy from France, owned by Eurazeo.

History

In 1954, Mr. Fauchille, director of the Delespaul-Hazard company, and Mr. Gallois, an employee, had a surplus of cocoa and decided to create a new, original recipe to use it up. The legend says that one of the machines in the factory was malfunctioning, making the long bars that still exists today. This sweet, in the form of a bar was named Caram'bar.

Each of the original Caram'bars were a regulated size and weight. The statistics are as follows:

Inside of the wrappers, there were "Carambar points" which could be redeemed for various Carambar-related products until 1961, when points were replaced by jokes. Carambar is famous for the poor quality of these jokes, and the expression blague Carambar (Шаблон:Lang-fr) refers to a bad or childish joke.

In 1972, the name changed to "Super Caram'bar". In 1977, the name lost its apostrophe.Шаблон:Citation needed
