Mars Bar Cake is without a doubt a retro children’s party classic – it’s ridiculously simple to make and absolutely no-one can resist it!
I hadn’t actually planned to post this recipe since it’s extremely simple and easy, but this is such an old classic I couldn’t resist.
I often make this for children’s parties where it is devoured by both kids and adults!
I am not safe around this crispy cake at all. I find it extremely addictive. It’s just as well my husband and boys love it as much as I do!

Mars Bar Crispy Cake
This easy, no bake Mar Bar crispy cake is universally loved by kids of all ages! It couldn't be easier to make.
Ingredients
- 4 Mars Bars, chopped, (the "standard" size weigh 51g each - the bars from the multipack are 39.4g so if you're using these, you will need 6 bars!
- 75 g butter
- 3 tablespoons golden syrup
- 225 g Rice Krispies
- 200 g milk chocolate
- 1 Mars bar for decoration (optional)
Instructions
- Grease and line a 9x9 baking tin with baking parchment.
- Melt the Mars Bars, butter and golden syrup together over a low heat in a large saucepan. The nougat in the Mars bar will take a while to melt down so keep stirring until you have a smooth, melted mixture.
- Pour the rice crispies over the melted mixture and stir very well until all the rice crispies are coated.
- Pour into the tin, smooth the top and pop in the fridge while you melt the chocolate for the topping.
- Melt the milk chocolate in the microwave or in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water. Pour the melted chocolate all over the crispy cake. Decorate with chopped Mars Bar pieces if desired.
- Leave to set in the fridge for about an hour before cutting into slices.

OMG I cannot believe how delicious this looks. I had to look up what a Mars bar is. I think we have something similar in our Milky Way bar. One day when I need something sweet and fast, I have to try this. Good luck in the contest!

Thanks! It’s such a quick and easy recipe, everyone seems to love it. The batch I made yesterday is all gone, believe it or not! I’ve already been asked to make a second!
I love a no bake slice as well. mmm mmm!
I totally agree – this simple bake is elevated into stratospheric yumminess by using mars bars.
I’m afraid I would become addicted to that also…but I’m going to make it anyway!
Love no bake recipes.
I love them too 🙂 This one is so easy, yet very rewarding!
My sister made these for me a few years ago and I loved the concept of using the mars bars as the marshmallow glue! So clever and delicious. Thanks for reminding me about these!
