Cadbury

British confectionery giant

Cadbury is a British confectionery company, one of the world's largest chocolate manufacturers.

Founded in Birmingham in 1824, the name is synonymous with chocolate in the UK and Commonwealth countries: a Cadbury egg, Cadbury Dairy Milk.

The purple packaging is iconic.

Now owned by Mondelez International, the brand remains strongly associated with British chocolate tradition.
