## About <!--about-->
Mars is the confectionery brand that signs the black wrapper with red gold-edged lettering carried by the caramel and nougat bar of the same name. Forrest Mars Sr. first manufactured the bar in Slough, England, in 1932, modelling it on his father's American Milky Way bar, and it is now made by Mars, Incorporated and sold worldwide outside the United States; the logo has been redrawn several times, most recently in the early 2000s.[^wp-mars]
