Whether your favourite is our famously smooth Caramel hard candy our long-lasting Chewy Caramel or our soft-centred Creamy Caramel Filled heres a treat for everyone who loves Werthers Original. A long time ago in the small European village of Werther, candy-maker Gustav Nebel created his finest candy. He used the best ingredients - real butter, fresh cream, white and brown sugars, a pinch of salt and a lot of time - to create a treasure worthy of being wrapped in gold. Because they turned out especially well, they were named Werther's Original in honour of the little village. Crafting this smooth, creamy caramel became a family tradition handed down through generations. Today, people all around the world enjoy the unique taste of Werther's Original.
