I loved PowerHouse candy bars as a kid. I hope some day they will make it again. It was the best and I wish I had one now....

Remember the commercials, featuring the faceless Candy Nabber? "...and soon, I, the Candy Nabber, will have all the Powerhouse candy bars in the world--I want yours next!!" There s a punk band in Gainesville called Powerhouse, after the candy bar.

Powerhouse was my favourite! I always got one at the movie theater -- I don't think it had caramel in it.

please try to find the powerhouse candy bar. i loved them when i was young. the last time i had one was about 13 years ago. i'm 65 years old and still love the powerhouse candy bar.

a Powerhouse and a RC life didn't get any better then that as a kid

i haven't seen or had a poerhouse candy bar in over 25 years and in my opinion they were the best of all time.

Never ate one but I remember the little story about Mr Goodbar with Ms. Hershey behind the Powerhouse... now they have a Baby Ruth.

Pears-- Powerhouse did have caramel in it; one time while I was surfing on You Tube, I saw a 1977 commercial for the Powerhouse candy bar, and it said that it had chocolate, peanuts, fudge, and caramel. I made a comment a little while back about how in the mid '80s, Peter Paul ceased production of Powerhouse, because it was being outsold by many other popular brands, including Peter Paul's other brands such as Mounds and Almond Joy. (Peter Paul took over as the brand's parent company in the mid '70s when their original parent Williamson Candy Company went broke.)

I've been trying to find out what happened to Peter Paul's Powerhouse Candy Bar for a long time. It's the best candy bar I have ever tasted. I want it back P L E A S E !!!!!!!! I'm still trying to not cry because it is gone but trying y to smile because I was one of the lucky ones who ever tasted it. But I still want it back.

where could I get a power house bar from?

Lesha-- You can't. As I told a few other people already, Powerhouse candy bars haven't been available for purchase anywhere for nearly 25 years, as Peter Paul stopped manufacturing and distributing them around 1985-1986.

Grew up with the Powerhouse factory down the street. Great place to visit on Halloween. It was torn down and replaced with condos. It sat on Belmont Ave. & Kostner Ave. in Chicago.

Powerhouse had neither carmel nor nuts - It's base was a heavy chunk of simulates maple sugar, topped by a roll of nugat, and covered by a waxey chocolate. The were a bit bigger and heavier than the competition, and in 1939 they came out with a 4 oz. bar for a quarter - didn't last long because a quarter was beyond the purchasing power of most kids (a movie was $0.12). It was a lovely bar - I used to eat all of the bottom first. Anyone remember the Three Musketeers as 3 bars; one each of vanilla, cherry, and chocolate? How about the two cent "Guess What" with two peanutbutter kisses and a cracker-jack type prize, and a kid joke printed on the inside of the wrapper?

I recently found an old box for power House candy bars The box says carmal

The Power House I remember was circa 1970 to 1979 . It was in a blue anw hite wrapper. It was carmel and nugat . I believe it was the best candy bar ever made.
