Cadbury's in General
by -becky- The Cadbury's Story: In 1824 the first ever Cadbury shop was opened by John Cadbury in Bull Street, Birmingham. It started off selling tea, coffee, cocoa and drinking chocolate. In 1866 after buying a new cocoa press from a Dutch manufacturer, the Cadbury Brothers launched a new product with no added starch. In 1905 Cadbury dairy ... milk was launched in a bid to rival swiss products and take advantage of new technology. In 1948, the fudge bar was launched. Still popular today the fudge bar became most famous for it's advertising jingle 'A finger of fudge is just enough...' In 1981 the Wispa bar was launched. After a prominent TV advertising campaigne the Wispa bar became an iconic 1980s product. The History Of Chocolate: Cocoa trees grew wild in the jungle, and they used them to make a spicy, rather bitter drink for special occasions. Centuries later the Aztec Empire fell, and the Conquistador Hernan Cortés brought cocoa beans back across the ocean to Spain. Gradually chocolate spread across Europe - it was the fashionable choice of Kings and Queens, the nobility and the rich, just like caviar or champagne today. At the end of the 19th Century milk was added, and at last someone devised a way of making chocolate to eat as well as to drink. But it wasn't until the 20th century that chocolate became affordable for everyone. So chocolate has been on an epic journey, but its popularity is enduring: prized once by Aztec warriors and today by millions of people around the world. Packaging of Cadbury's: The plain Cadbury's chocolate bars are normally covered in a dark purple wrapping with the name Cadbury's written bold in white over the front in a swirly writing. The Cadbury logo is like two glasses tipped on there side with milk being poured out of them. The nutritional information is on the back of the wrapping. Nutritional Information: In every 100g of the chocolate there is: 220 calories 12.0g of fat 8.0g of saturated fat 3.0g of protien There is nothing about chocolate that is going to make it anything near to healthy, but it's a good treat to have! Price: The average price for a 230g bar of Cadbury's chocolate is around £1.50 although many places do have offers on regulary. I think the price is pretty reasonable for the delicious creamy taste of the BEST chocolate around (in my opinion!) Where To Buy: Pretty much every supermarket in the UK sells the delicious Cadbury's chocolate. If you live nearby a small corner shop or something similar, they will probably sell it too. Taste: The taste is amazing. After trying the first square, you cannot resist the temptation of eating more and more. Suddenly the whole bar has disappeared! It has a quite creamy taste, but not so creamy that it is sickly as that would be horrible (kind of obvious but you know)! Cadbury don't just sell plain chocolate bars, they sell a range of others such as: -Double chocolate (gooey chocolate sauce running through the middle) -Fruit and nut -Caramel -Whole Nut And probably many more different types. Other Things Cadbury Have Made: Cadbury have made lots of different things other than just the original chocolate bars. There's the creme egg with a tasty centre (if you eat too much gets quite sickly). They sell cakes, buscuits, drinks, ice creams, deserts, and eclairs. Then last of all there are the selection boxes: heroes, roses and milk tray - all of which I could sit and eat a whole box to myself as they are gorgeous! Thanks for reading my review!:) Read the complete review |

Cadbury's in General
by jennikitten Founded in 1824 and originally selling hot chocolate, tea and coffee, Cadbury's has become a British institution we all know and love for its chocolate, and is one of the few companies that continues to get better and more in-tune with its customers as it ages. Unfortunately, having sold over 72% of its shares to Kraft, Cadbury's can't ... really be considered that British any more. It remains to be seen whether Kraft will change anything, but I'm sure I won't be the only angry one if they change recipes or pull them apart to re-market for the US. Cadbury's as a company is currently worth around £5 billion, and it's not surprising when it's a lot of people's preferred brand of chocolate. Dairy Milk is probably the most well-known with its regal wrapper and lovely creamy taste. Many people have grown up with Cadbury's chocolate buttons, and I remember going to the chocolate shop at the weekend, which was always a treat as you could get 4 or 5 bars of Cadbury's for £1, with Flakes, Crunchies, Curly Wurlys and more on offer, to be put in a crushed paper bag and enjoyed. Obviously they aren't the healthiest choice of snack, but they are very reasonably priced in comparison to their taste. Cadbury's also does a range of chocolate boxes and assorted mixes, including Roses, Miniature Heroes and Milk Tray. There is also a fantastic website I found through DooYoo called cadburygiftsdirect.co.uk, where I bought my boyfriend a massive 5kg bar of Dairy Milk as a present once (considered to be a six month supply of chocolate for the average person, lasted him about a month - and that's only because it was so thick you had to hit it repeatedly with something heavy to break it up!). I have also been to a Cadbury Factory Outlet, where the tins of chocolate aren't particularly reasonable, but you can pick up giant bags of misshapes for cheap, and if you go out of season they often have great deals (e.g. after Easter I got 11kg of mini eggs for about £10). Cadbury's are also known for the Cadbury Factory in Birmingham, which is a place I've always wanted to go to and will get around to visiting one day soon, since I only live in Nottingham. I'm sad that such a great British institution has been taken over by the Americans, and I'm worried that they will change a lot of things since they've had to borrow $7 billion to even afford to buy it. Only time will tell, and I hope that Cadbury's will still remain British to us. Read the complete review |

by Thechamp1 There are biscuits, chocolates and even cakes all available from the Cadbury brand. For many years I have been buying chocolates from Cadbury and always find them to have the most delicious chocolate available!They have so much to choose from including the likes of Flake and Twirl two of the best chocolates I have tasted in my time ... eating Cadbury make chocolates. All their chocolate's are mostly delicious but there is the similar taste to all of them chocolates there about them. You can just feel that same chocolate taste being there about the chocolates. When you eat Flake and Twirl you can easily tell the similar taste between the two. They make some of their chocolates taste a little too similar. Having their special made chocolate a while ago it had such good taste to it! Their special chocolate in boxes are even much tastier to eat of them with some excellent chocolate taste about them! Cadbury do make the best chocolate you can find out there. They just need to make something a little different though. Something with a different taste that from their usual chocolate. I can name a few chocolate that taste similar in one way and that includes Dairy Milk, Chocolate Buttons just to name a couple. They are though the best for making chocolate but just need something new out there. Their cakes on the other hand are always really yummy! Read the complete review |
