Lol, another great chocolate now tasting like cheap chocolate and full of fake sugars Rendering a one time nice treat, now taste like crap, and they are not even round anymore, more like boulders Show details
So disappointed Maltesers didn't have packs of Mini Bunnies this year for Easter in Australia. Im making a malteser cheesecake for Easter and have to use the Kit kat bunnies as I was unable to find the Mini malteser bunnies to decorate the top of the cheesecake.
Today’s Maltesers are horrible – The quality, size and taste of Maltesers has dropped significantly. Smaller, less malt, and varying in size and shape. No longer a favourite. Show details
Shocking quality – Used to be my favourite. Now they are absolutely horrible. After 3 random packets I couldn't even consume, I won't ever buy again! Show details
Maltesers downfall – Maltesers ads often feature the confections rolling smoothly across various surfaces however the current products have transformed from spherical to lumpy and misshapen and would more than likely behave like errant dice in similar circumstances. This obvious lack of product quality control is also reflected in the inferior taste which is now bland and degraded in texture. Yet again the result of bean counters destroying a previously good product. Show details
Sizing description – Firstly I would say that Maltesers are my favourite chocolate. But seriously why is the 60g box labelled as "King Share".... King of who? Leprechauns... Pixies.... ?? Show details
Foreign body found inside maltesers – Hi tucking into our favourite box of maltesers bit onto small hard object looks like a piece of white grit ..could be anything but its put me off the product. Surprised that there is no information on how to contact should the customer have cause to complain.Having read somebody else's post who also found a piece of grit which caused him to… Read more
complain by way of email and get no answer..well seems pointless sending the foreign object back to provider!
VOMIT WORTHY – These gold maltesers ended up in the bin,never tasted anything so disgusting in my life,love normal ones,DONT BUY THEM,YUK Show details
What happened to the quality control of these chocolates? – Gone are the perfect little circles of malt and chocolate delights, now you get misshapen blobs in all different sizes. Very disappointing Show details
No flavour of malt – I used to delight in a Malteser, crisp chocolate and a delicious malty tasting centre. They now taste of absolutely nothing but sugar. So sad. Show details
This product is inedible and I'm losing money for this – I have this product in my vending machines because they asked me to have it, but I have received many complaints because this product get inedible before this one expire, the product that's supposed should expire in July and in June the product has a white dots and the inside thing is deformed and hard as a rock, you cannot eat it. Probably I… Read more
should remove this product from my vending machines because I'm losing money for refunds and products that it can't sell.
Where are the REAL Maltesers – It has been years since my last Malteser. I bought this box from Aldi. Opened the box, took , one look. What are these? Is this a FAKE? I see smaller, darker, not round. A few have missing dots of chocolate. My memory of the original product, it was superior in every way. These poor quality imitations didn't melt in my mouth, the middle is not fluffy. I wouldn't recommend these..... Show details
The occasional soggy/no inside crunch Maltesers – I was given a gift pack of Maltesers for my birthday - I had kept them in the pantry for a few days before I started eating. I got exactly 6 Maltesers which had a small hole in the chocolate - letting air into the inside. Due to the hole, the crunchy inside had melted and shriveled onto the inside walls of the chocolate ball. I bit into it and… Read more
immediately spat it out due to the surprise and seemingly weird taste. There were half bitten Maltesers sitting in the box for at least a week.

No good – You need to go back to the original recipe before it's too late.
Grew up with Maltesers but current version pathetic – Too small No malt flavour Won’t buy again Shame on the manufacturers for destroying something I used to love and now wouldn’t bother buying again Have found another brand of malt balls double the size with a large malt centre do will be sticking with those now ( buy at Standard Market) Show details
Unbelievable yuk – I have bought Maltesers since I was 5 years old. They taste nothing like they used to. They used to be brown in the middle, now they are almost white. I got a large box for Christmas and cannot eat them. They are sweet and yukky. The biggest disappointment ever.
Raspberry malteasers – Not nice at all. Has a bitter taste. I don't think these will be on the shelves for long. Maybe they should of tried strawberry or just stayed with original flavor. Yuck.
Smaller – Maltesers are delicious. I’m not a huge fan of chocolate but Maltesers are great! But...They have shrunk - the best bit is the crunchy centre - not a fan of the smaller ones
The UK Malteasers are still fantastic..... but – There are two other countries making them. This summer I got quite large bags at a dollar store and they were wonderful. Recently I went back and they had Malteasers in boxes, I bought like 10 boxes and ended up throwing away eight of them. If you knew me and my Malteasers, I would never ever do a thing like that..
Uninspiring, where has the maltiness gone? – I always loved Maltesers,a real treat.Flavour and texture has changed hugely in the last few years. Tastebuds can change as we age, but this is not the case here. Texture and flavour has changed for the worse. Has the recipe been changed?I have continued to purchase periodically in the hope of improvement, sadly today I give up! The taste to me (and friends and family) is actually not enjoyable.
OMG... Love them – Why have I not tried these before.. Love them.. For anyone who prefers dark chocolate these are heaven, even if milk chocolate is your thing I think you will find them addictive.
they are perfect! – every flavour is really good. i really like the milk ones with honeycomb. the dark ones are perfect. the Teasers bar is the best because it has the most chocolate in it. If only I could get my hands on Galaxy/Dove. the only thing bad is the packets are small

Choco-Honeycomb – Maltesers are very light and airy chocolate treats that taste great. They are small spherical shaped pieces of honeycomb that have a thin layer of milk chocolate covering them. The honeycomb is very light and starts to dissolve the instant it hits your tongue creating a interesting taste sensation. The milk chocolate is very smooth and creamy and… Read more
melts easily. Together the chocolate and honeycomb are made for each other. They are available in two different sized packets. They are great to share around with friends and family. Its hard to put them down once you start eating them but they do get a little sickly sweet by the end of the packet. They are available from all good supermarkets and convenience stores. Competitively priced. The chocolate and honeycomb taste great together. Reasonably priced.
OK – These are a great chocolate. If you like honeycomb but don't like it too hard then this is perfect. I like having these at the cinema and they are a great one off treat. Can get a bit boring sometimes if you have them often. It would be nice if they brought out white chocolate ones or white chocolate and raspberry, that could be a nice change and… Read more
something different to try! I love it when they melt in your mouth. Once upon a time I bought a packet of these and felt like I got heaps in it. Now it feels like they don't put as much product in the packet and manage to charge more.
Good – I would buy Maltesers at any price as they are so yummy and the way the chocolate and then the honeycomb just melt in your mouth, the taste is just sensation in its self to experience and no other lollie can give off the same feeling. These treats are worth their weight in gold as I believe that they really give enjoyment to people. A great… Read more
tasting treat that just melts in your mouth - a treat that you cannot resist. That the packets are not a lot bigger.
Good – a great milk chocolate treat that has a honeycomb centre that just melts in your mouth and can be enjoyed by all family members, comes in a variety of sizes. an enjoyable chocolate treat that just crunch and melt in your mouth,covered by a smooth thin milk chocolate outer shell. They come in various sizes, my favourite is the large box which… Read more
doesnt last long in this house. Easy to open packet and safe for little children to consume no fear of nuts hidden inside. taste best when slightly warm as i love the melting chocolate moments, packaing isnt over the top, simple but easy to find non that i can think of
Good – This products is great for the whole family. The chocolate for not hard for small children to eat due to the easy-to-eat centres. They come nice small packets - great for the school lunchbox. They come in larger packets, which is great for parties or eating as a special treat. A must-by if on special at the supermarket! This is a nice product. The… Read more
chocolate coating just melts very easily and the centre is just so crunchy. Due to the chocolate coating, it is very unhealthy. Only eat this as the occasional treat. Additionally, there is not a lot of chocolate coating on each malteser - I would prefer if the coating was thicker.
Bad – These are wonderfully crunchy chcolates which are great for anyone who has sensitive teeth and wants a softer chocolate which is still crunchy. These are so good, I can easily finish off a bag (any size), but end up feeling a bit sick afterwards. I like to eat these only when I really want them because they are too rich and I dont want something… Read more
so unhealthy on a regular basis. They are fantastic as an occasional treat. These are yummy chocolate treats which just melt in my mouth. They are very high in calories compared to other chocolates, so I dont buy these unless I really crave them.
