Minstrels pack, as sold in the UK (September 2006)

Minstrels are chocolate buttons with a hard glazed shell sold in the UK. Due to racial sensitivity, and the name's presumed reference to blackface minstrelsy, they would presumably be impossible to market in the United States under that name.

They have the slogan "They melt in your mouth, not in your hands" which is the same one used by M&Ms in the United States.

In line with Mars' rebranding, Minstrels have been repackaged and are now sold as "Galaxy Minstrels"
