At the beginning of the twentieth century, bars which combined milk chocolate with other sweet ingredients appeared on both sides of the Atlantic. In 1904, Cailler launched its [[Branche (chocolate)|Branche]], a praline-filled and branch-looking bar.{{sfn|Meo|2012|page=53}} Other Swiss chocolatiers, Theodor Tobler and Emil Baumann, invented [[Toblerone]] in 1908 which contained [[almonds]], [[honey]] and [[nougat]].{{sfn|Morton|Morton|1986|page=109}} In the United States, the [[Goo Goo Cluster]] was first introduced in 1912 which added [[caramel]], [[marshmallow]] and peanuts to the list of ingredients.{{sfn|Smith|2011|page=86}} These were soon followed, in 1914, by [[Fry's Turkish Delight]] in the UK.{{sfn|Martin|2016|page=46}} Shortly afterwards, [[D. L. Clark Company|Clark]] introduced the [[Clark Bar]], which has been called the first combination bar, in 1917.{{sfn|Smith|2011|page=52}}  In 1920, Otto Schnering of the [[Curtiss Candy Company]] created the Baby Ruth bar. By 1925, it was the most popular bar in the US.{{sfn|Smith|2011|page=211}} Soon afterwards, two other brands that would become global giants followed, the [[Mars Bar]] in 1932 and, three years later, [[Rowntree's]] introduced the [[Kit Kat]].{{sfn|Martin|2016|page=46–47}} By 2014, 650 Kit Kat bars were being consumed each second.{{sfn|Wright|2019|page=159}} Combination bars came to dominate the confectionery market with sales surpassing $140&nbsp;billion in 2018.{{sfn|IMARC|2018|page=5}} As of 2023, milk chocolate was most commonly paired globally with caramel flavours and almonds.{{Sfnp|Myers|2023}}
