Discover where a brand or product originates
Werther's Original is a global brand of caramel candy that remains one of the most recognizable sweets in the world. The brand traces its roots back to 1903 in the small town of Werther, Germany, where confectioner Gustav Nebel created a unique butter candy recipe using real butter, fresh cream, white and brown sugars, and a pinch of salt. Originally sold as Werther's Echte, the name was later adapted for international markets to Werther's Original.
The product range has expanded significantly over the decades from the classic hard butter candy to include soft caramels, chewy toffees, and sugar-free varieties like the one shown. The brand is deeply associated with traditional German confectionery expertise and continues to be primarily manufactured in Germany at the production facilities of its parent company. Ownership has remained within the Storck family, ensuring a level of brand consistency and traditional production methods that have persisted for over a century.
