Sky Bar is an American candy bar, produced since 1938 by Necco. Each Sky Bar has four sections, each with a different filling: caramel, vanilla, peanut and fudge, all covered in milk chocolate.
In 1938, the Sky Bar was first announced to the public by means of a dramatic skywriting advertising campaign. Necco was the first candy manufacturer in the United States of America to introduce a molded chocolate bar, having four distinctly different centers enrobed in chocolate. The originator of the Sky Bar was a candy maker working for Necco named Joseph Cangemi.
In 1945, the blackout and curfew in Times Square, NY was lifted on VE Day, after three years of darkness. Only six display signs had their lighting equipment ready for operation and Necco’s Sky Bar was one of them.[1]
The peanut section of the Sky Bar is not filled with peanut butter, but in fact a peanut-flavored caramel. The vanilla section is not quite nougat or marshmallow, but similar to the consistency of a Valomilk cup.
The Sky Bar has become difficult to find, but it is still produced by Necco and can be found in certain stores - especially in New England, at Cracker Barrel and on the Internet.
On the Dec. 6, 2007 episode of Pardon the Interruption, Tony Kornheiser named the Sky Bar as his favorite chocolate bar.
In 2010, to celebrate the DVD release "New Moon" (from the now famous Twilight vampire saga), Skybar released two special chocolate bars inspired by the original Skybar candy. One bar, quite similar to the original Skybar, contained three filling flavors - caramel, creme and peanut butter. The other bar resembled a heart shape and only contained creme.
Statisticians world wide remain perplexed at the inability for consumers to ever know to a 100 percent degree of accuracy, which delicious section will be where and eaten at which times by who. Psychologists have suggested that this inability lies not so much in the numbers of the problem as it does to the fact that consumers whence eating this slice of heaven are put into a daze of sugary haze and bliss.
