Milk Duds

Milk Duds are a caramel ball, covered with a confectionery chocolate coating made from cocoa and vegetable oil. They are manufactured by The Hershey Company and sold in a yellowish-orange box.

According to the manufacturer, the word "Milk" in the candy's name refers to the large amount of milk in the product; the use of "dud" came about because the original aim of having a spherical shape wasn't achievable. Milk Duds were first created in 1928.^[
