From Birmingham to Bournville
In 1824, John Cadbury opened a shop in Birmingham, selling tea, coffee, and drinking chocolate. In 1879, his sons moved the factory to the countryside south of the city and built a village around it for their workers: Bournville. Cadbury chocolate is still made there today, and Cadbury World welcomes visitors.
Dairy Milk, the benchmark tablet
Launched in 1905, Dairy Milk contained more milk than any other chocolate of the time. The brand still sums it up with its slogan: "a glass and a half," one and a half glasses of milk in each bar. This is what gives it its very milky taste, milder than chocolates from the continent. It is available in:
- in Caramel, Fruit & Nut and Wholenut with whole hazelnuts;
- with Crunchie, Daim, Oreo or Lotus Biscoff;
- in Caramilk, a caramelized white chocolate.
The break bars
- Crunchie , a crunchy honeycomb heart coated in chocolate.
- Twirl and Wispa , one flaky, the other airy.
- Curly Wurly , the caramel braid.
- Double Decker and Picnic .
- Fry's Chocolate Cream , one of the very first chocolate bars, has been sold since 1866.
