Plopp

Plopp is a chocolate bar manufactured by the Swedish company Cloetta (formerly part of Cloetta Fazer). Like Center, another Cloetta chocolate bar, it consists of milk chocolate with a soft caramel center, but the formula, texture and aroma are not the same. Over 95 percent of Plopp bars are sold in Sweden. Some English-speaking sources have criticized the name "Plopp" as being unappealing due to its use as a euphemism for human feces.
