A Sweet History of Mars
Ever since 1911, when it was created, when we mention sweet treats, Mars is the first name on people’s lips. It was started by a man named Frank C. Mars from Tacoma City, Washington, who used to cook and sell buttercream candies at home. His offspring, Forrest Mars, also took up his father’s task, which led to the production of some candies celebrated all over the world.
Forrest Mars was the mastermind who brought us the Mars Bar, the Milky Way, and Snickers bars in 1932, all are popular in every part of the world. This move enabled Mars to create its own empire since those chocolates received worldwide recognition almost immediately. Mars has acquired other popular brands, including Skittles and Starburst, which makes Mars a major player in the confectionery industry over the past years. Up to the present, the firm is still privately held by the Mars family, led by Mars family members who keep coming up with new ideas that appeal to their fan base of sweet tooths across the globe.

From The Club
Trick or treat? I’d prefer a treat if it’s from Mars! ‘Cause why not? Ever since I was a kid, I always loved it when I got a lot of treats from our neighbors or when my parents gave me a Snickers bar, and up until growing up, my love for sweets (like any other) has not faded; in fact, almost all of us know the joy of eating sweets. And with the confirmation of the treats we’ll be getting this coming August, I don’t have to wait ’til November to enjoy it though.
