I ahve been looking for Maple buds for years, I think they were by Roundtree and came in a chocolate bag that was brown with rosebuds all over the front. The nearest thing to them would be lyntt chocolate bars. They were very creamy. if anyone knows were to get them let me know. peterdawe77@yahoo.ca

I remember maple buds they were so good, better than the rose buds you can buy now, yes they were made by rowentree or roundtree chocolates

I remeber I used to get them at the theatre then they were harder to find. There was a drugstore that I was able to buy them at until they were discontinued. I looooooooved them and have been searching off and on for years to see if others remember. Bring them back!!!!!!

I was raised in Canada and adored maple buds. I use to purchase them in a drug store. I have never tasted any chocolate that melts in my mouth like those did. For the past 10 years I've been living in Las Vegas, and there is no comparison to any of the USA chocolate. Seriously, should we start a petition to ask for them to come back. Would enough people remember them? How do we find a person who worked for that company that we can try to take action and get this amazing product back on the market? Please email me exec_woman@yahoo.com Jackie

I LOVED MAPLE BUDS ALSO AND TOO HAVE BEEN SEARCHING EVERYWHERE FOR THEM, THEY WERE THE BEST, I WISH THEY WOULD BRING THEM BACK. COUNT ME IN ON THAT PETITION TO BRING BACK MAPLE BUDS!!

I am also a Maple Buds fan and ate them as a child and teenager. Please let me know how we can start a petition (via e-mail) to lobby the company to consider bringing them back!

Shoppers Drug Mart carries "rosebuds" which are similar to the MapleBuds described...not sure who the maker is but it'll be in the candy aisle.

I can't believe there are so many other people who loved Maple Buds as much as I did. I looked for Rowntree on the net, and it looks like it may have been taken over by Nestle. A petition to Nestle, possibly?

I wrote to Nestle about bringing back Maple Buds. Here's what I wrote: I would like to have my email answered by management please. I am writing to you about "Rowntree Maple Buds" chocolate that was discontinued a few years ago. I know Nestle bought out Rowntree and then decided to discontinue this product. There are so many people out there who still love and remember Maple Buds. It's a shame that you took away the best tasting chocolate you could find at the pharmacy or corner store. What do we have to do to get Maple Buds back on the shelf again??? If we started a petition and there were enough people who wanted Maple Buds back, would you bring them back on the market? .................................. I doubt my email will work... I have emailed Nestle in the past and they said that they discontinued the product becase it wasn't selling. If you ever decide to start a petition... email me at iknowthatperson@yahoo.ca

Sigh... Maple buds. My best friend and I still fantasize about those. Those waxy Rosebuds are no match for Rowntree's Maple Buds. Keep me posted if you start that petition: redhed_2001@hotmail.com

MAPLE BUDS!! I thought I might want to live at the factory when I was little. I ate soooo many of those delicious little chocolate heavenly bites. WE NEED to get a petition going. Find someone who has the secret recipe!! Something!! Count me in on the petition too. CzarofFools@hotmail.com

I was beginning to think I dreamed these Finally others who remember them. I'm in on that petition.

I remember these maple buds as a kid, my grandma would buy them for me. I really wish they would bring them back.

YES I love those maples buds no other chocolate will do we need them back everyone I talk too tell me they were very good so what happened count me in for a petition

I used to steal them from my father's stash... now i'd like to repay him and they aren't around! :-(

Bring the Maple Buds back Nestle, at least test if they can sell. There will be enough buyers. My wife and I and plenty of others still talk about the best chocolate of all time. Maybe folks if we do enough emails about the best ever chocolate ever made, Nestle will listen, just people writing about it is proof enough, don't you think?

Actually, I wrote Nestle about Maple Buds several years ago, and followed up with a phone call. They said they didn't sell well enough, but even the girl on the phone who took my comments said they everyone in the office loved them! I also would them back and agree that Rosebuds are no comparison. However, I'm also worried that if Nestle did bring them back, they would be altered. Almost everything Nestle takes over (Carnation hot chocolate, Stouffers) ends up full of coconut oil and other cheap ingredients. They've even really downgraded Hagen Dasz.

I'd like to start a petition how do i start

I can't belive it so many people love Maple Buds! I LOVEDLOVEDLOVED Maple Buds, and adored the package they came in, too (all those little chocolate buds bunched together)! Nielsen's are nothing like the original. I was sad that Rowntree was taken over by Nestle..Tamra is correct about them. Anyone also remember Lowney's Nut Milk bars? They were delicious too...

This is so funny, i had no idea so many people loved maplebuds, like I did.. When did they stop making them? Like Snack Bars.. those were really good, then they stopped making those. I remeber the brown bag, you could buy them in a large qt.. I was a teenager, so were talking way back re: the maplebuds.. Why did they stop making them.. doesn't make sense? Rosebuds, yuck

I loved maple buds soooooo much and have been looking for them for years. The last time I was able to purchase them was in the movie theatre but that was quite a few years ago - I would love to see them back and hope that someone can make that happen.ROSEBUDS DEFINATELY NOT EVEN CLOSE TO MAPLEBUDS - YUCK IS RIGHT!

Rosebuds, not a chance up against Maple Buds. In the states they seem to be remaking all the retro candies. Come on Canada bring back the wonderfully delicious "MAPLE BUDS". I'd sign the petition in a heart beat.

I loved Maple Buds! The comments about nestle changing everything with their cheaper ingredients is so true! Nice eh? charge more for something of less quality. The only reason they probably discontinued them is because the rich taste of them probably cut into their precious bottom line. Pathetic! I really wish they would bring them back!

Nothing compares to that creamy goodness in the brown bag. Especially when they all melted in a bar!!

I RECALL MAPLE BUDS FONDLY....THEY WERE DELICIOUS, AND MY GRANDMOTHER LOVED THEM....I SAW SOMEONE ELSE COMMENTED EARLIER ABOUT NUTMILK, BY LOWNEY...THOSE WERE out of this world!!!!!!! THEY SHOULD BRING BACK BOTH NUTMILK AND MAPLE BUDS......
