(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
Bars which only contain chocolate, nuts, fondant or syrup but not candy are not candy bars. A McCowan's Highland toffee bar is pure candy and therefore a definite candy bar. A Twix bar just qualifies as a candy bar because the caramel within it is a form of candy and forms quite a large proportion of it. A Three Musketeers bar is not a candy bar because it consists purely of chocolate and aerated fondant.
However, in the common vernacular (in the United States), any type of easily consumed bar sold in an individual wrapper, is referred to as a candy bar whether technically correct or not.
Candy bars are one of the common items available from a vending machine.
