Whoppers are malted milk balls, with an artificially flavored "non chocolate coating", produced by the Hershey Company. The candy is a sphere about 3⁄4 inch (20 mm) in diameter and consists of a malted milk center formed through an aeration process, a technique commonly used in mid-20th century confectionery.
