Fans lament as Nestlé axes Caramac bar after 64 years

Fans of the chocolate bar Caramac have been left "Devastated" after Nestlé confirmed it is discontinuing the sweet. Caramac was launched more than 60 years ago, quickly gaining popularity thanks to its distinctive red and yellow wrapper and caramel flavour. News of Caramac being axed first surfaced on social media on Tuesday, sparking an outcry from fans. Caramac was originally created by Mackintosh's and since it launched over 60 years ago in 1959, it has been a mainstay of confectionary shelves across the UK. The name is a combination of '"Caramel" and "Mackintosh" and was determined through a competition held by the management team at Mackintosh's for their workers at a factory in Norwich. Caramac won fans over with a unique flavour and texture due to the fact it does not contain any cocoa.
