Candy Bars Tier List
A candy bar is a texture stack, and the ones that win are the ones where the layers disagree with each other in a good way. Twelve bars, unranked, on contrast, chocolate and whether it survives a pocket. Nothing is pre-graded: tiles wait in Unranked until you drag or tap them into S–F. Rows rename in a click and the finished board exports as a PNG.

How this board is built: the 12 tiles are an editorial starting set, not an official roster and not a published ranking — every entry waits in Unranked until you place it. Item tiles are original pictograms or two-letter emblems drawn for this site rather than character artwork, film stills or club logos, so nothing here is licensed material reused from a rights holder. Tiers you set are your own judgement.
What's included in this Candy Bars board
The board arrives with all 12 entries present as tiles and none of them assigned to a tier. That is deliberate: a template that opens with a finished ranking only invites you to agree or disagree with whoever made it, whereas an empty ladder makes you commit to an ordering of your own. Drag a tile onto a row, or on a phone tap the tile and then the tier you want. You can add rows for extra categories, rename the standard ones, and remove any entry you do not recognise — a list you can defend is more useful than a long one you cannot.
How to rank this Candy Bars board
Rank texture contrast first: crunchy, chewy, creamy — a bar with two of those beats a bar with one. Then weigh chocolate quality. Most mass-market bars use the same couverture, so the difference shows up in how thick it is and whether it dominates the filling. Third, judge heat tolerance, which is the criterion nobody scores and everybody experiences. A bar that becomes a puddle at room temperature is a bar you cannot carry. Finish by separating nostalgia from craft. Both are fine, but a list that ranks a childhood favourite first without saying why is just a memory with a number.
Using the board without over-thinking it
Most people finish a board like this in a couple of minutes and then reorder the middle rows for another ten. That middle is where the honest disagreement lives, so do not rush it: place the obvious top three and the obvious bottom three first, then work inward. If two entries still feel identical, that is a real observation — say so in a row note or a text tile rather than inventing a difference. When the ordering settles, export the PNG so the arrangement is saved somewhere permanent, and copy the share link if you want someone else to argue with it.

Before you share it
Put your criterion in the board title, so a reader knows whether they are looking at a favourites list or an analytical one. If the subject changes with patches, seasons or releases, add the date. And remember the share link carries tier names, colours and the tile order — uploaded photos stay on your device, so export a PNG when those matter.

Do limited editions belong?
Only as notes. A bar you cannot buy again cannot really be compared, and it makes the list harder to use.
Is dark chocolate automatically better?
No. A well-made milk bar beats a bitter one, and the ranking should be about balance rather than cocoa percentage.
