NutRageous is a candy bar made by the Hershey Company. It consists of Reese's Peanut Butter topped with roasted peanuts, caramel and a chocolate flavoured coating. Developed as a candy bar loosely based on the Reese's Peanut Butter Cup, NutRageous was first sold in 1994.[1] NutRageous was originally called Acclaim, but this name was changed just prior to its release. The target consumer base, children, did not appreciate "Acclaim" as readily as they did "NutRageous."[2]
Composition
NutRageous is similar to the Baby Ruth and Snickers candy bars in its makeup. All three of these chocolate bars use caramel and peanuts. Baby Ruth and NutRageous share a lumpy texture on top of the bar produced by the covered peanuts. NutRageous, however, utilizes Reese's Peanut Butter for the center instead of nougat. This results in a candy bar that is both distinct from similar candy bars, but can directly compete with them using its familiar palate.
