As a confectionery expert with a deep understanding of the composition of various sweets, I can tell you that the inside of a Malteser is quite distinctive. A Malteser consists of two main parts: the malted milk center and the chocolate coating.

The malted milk center is made from a combination of malted barley, powdered milk, sugar, and sometimes cocoa powder. This mixture is then heated and cooled to create a firm, chewy texture. The malted barley provides a rich, malty flavor, while the milk solids contribute to the creamy taste.

The chocolate coating is typically made from milk chocolate, which is a combination of cocoa solids, cocoa butter, milk powder, and sugar. This coating is applied to the malted milk center to seal in the flavor and provide a smooth, sweet finish.

To summarize, a Malteser is a combination of a malted milk center with a milk chocolate coating, creating a unique taste and texture that is both sweet and malty.
