Malted milk balls are a popular confectionery made by coating a crunchy malted milk center with a layer of chocolate. The interior typically consists of malt powder, milk solids, and wheat flour, which give it a distinctive creamy and slightly toasted flavor. Originating in the early 20th century, these treats became synonymous with classic American and European candy traditions. While their chocolate coating provides antioxidants, malted milk balls are primarily high in sugar, saturated fats, and calories, making them a less healthy indulgence if consumed in large quantities. However, their small, bite-sized format can make them a convenient option for satisfying a sweet craving in moderation. They are typically enjoyed as a snack, dessert topping, or even blended into milkshakes, adding a rich, malty flavor. Malted milk balls are best viewed as an occasional treat rather than a staple of a balanced diet.
