Caramac was the brand name for a caramel-based confectionery created by Mackintosh's, and was manufactured by Nestlé.[1] It was introduced in the United Kingdom in 1959 and discontinued in 2023. The name is derived from the syllabic abbreviation of Caramel and Mackintosh.[2]
A similar confection is used in the covering of McVitie's Gold biscuit bar. A limited edition Caramac Kit Kat bar was released in the United Kingdom in 2005[3] and due to popular demand it was brought back in 2007.
In 2015 a buttons version was launched.[4]
In November 2023, Nestle announced that they would be withdrawing the Caramac from their range due to low sales.[5]
