Werther's Original[edit | edit source]
Werther's Original is a popular brand of caramel candies produced by the German company August Storck KG. The brand is named after the town of Werther in Westphalia, where the candies were first produced in 1903. The candies are known for their distinctive, smooth caramel flavor and are sold in over 100 countries worldwide.
History[edit | edit source]
The history of Werther's Original dates back to the early 20th century. In 1903, August Storck, a candy maker from the town of Werther, began producing a hard caramel candy. The candy quickly gained popularity in Germany and was eventually exported to other countries. In 1969, the company introduced the Werther's Original brand, which has since become synonymous with high-quality caramel candies.
Production[edit | edit source]
The production of Werther's Original involves a complex process that ensures the distinctive flavor and texture of the candies. The process begins with the selection of high-quality ingredients, including fresh cream and real butter. These ingredients are then combined and cooked at a precise temperature to create the caramel. The caramel is then cooled and shaped into the familiar, individually wrapped candies.
Varieties[edit | edit source]
In addition to the original hard caramel candies, Werther's Original also offers a variety of other products. These include Werther's Original Soft Caramels, which have a softer texture, and Werther's Original Sugar Free, which are made without added sugar. The brand also produces Werther's Original Caramel Popcorn, a popular snack that combines the flavor of Werther's Original with crunchy popcorn.
Popularity[edit | edit source]
Werther's Original is one of the most popular brands of caramel candies in the world. The candies are sold in over 100 countries and are particularly popular in Germany, the United States, and the United Kingdom. The brand's distinctive flavor and high-quality ingredients have made it a favorite among consumers of all ages.
