Rolo
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- For the town in Italy with the same name, see Rolo (RE)
Rolos are a brand of cylindrical chocolates, with caramel centres, made by Nestlé, and produced under licence (from Rowntree Mackintosh) by The Hershey Company in the United States since 1969. They were advertised for many years with the slogan: Do you love anyone enough to give them your last Rolo? They have been redistributed all over the world, and even have their own animated character, Rolo Mot.
In the UK, they are made at Fawdon in Tyneside by Nestle Rowntree. They were first made originally in 1938 by Rowntrees in York. Mackintosh toffee was coated with chocolate. There have now been Rolo cookies, ice-cream, muffins, birthday cake, desserts, cake bars, mini Rolos, big Rolos, yogurts and Easter eggs made. There is a white chocolate version with Irish cream.
It is also possible to buy a solid silver Rolo as a romantic gift.
