The story of Cadbury Dairy Milk Biscoff Chunk Pouch
The pouch that does not survive the sofa
You open it meaning to have two chunks. Then the film ends, the pouch is empty, and somebody is asking who finished it. It was not them, apparently. Dairy Milk is the chocolate most of us grew up on: the corner shop, the bus home from school, the bar in the glovebox that went soft every summer. This one adds a Biscoff chunk to the mix, which is the kind of sentence that makes a lot of people sit up. Still Cadbury, still the one you have been missing.
Read the full story
It started with a grocer's shop
John Cadbury opened a grocer's shop at 93 Bull Street in Birmingham in 1824, selling tea, coffee and drinking chocolate he prepared himself. He was a Quaker, and he promoted drinking chocolate partly as a respectable alternative to alcohol. Hot chocolate pitched as the sensible option to the pub. Bold, and you have to admire it. From 1831 the business moved into factory production of cocoa and drinking chocolate on Bridge Street, Birmingham.
Two brothers and a village with no pub
His sons, Richard and George, took over the business in 1861. They adopted a Dutch cocoa-pressing method and launched the purer 'Cocoa Essence' in 1866. In 1879 they opened a new, purpose-built factory at Bournville, south-west of Birmingham, and George developed Bournville into a model village for the firm's workers, famous for having no public houses. Something of a family theme. Cadbury Dairy Milk arrived in 1905, and by 1914 it had become the company's best-selling product. Some things are obvious early.
Owners change, the first chunk does not
Cadbury merged with chocolate maker J. S. Fry & Sons in 1919, then with Schweppes in 1969 to form Cadbury Schweppes. Kraft Foods acquired Cadbury in 2010, and Cadbury is now part of Mondelez International, created when Kraft split in 2012. Names on the paperwork come and go. Cadbury chocolate is still made in Britain today at the historic Bournville factory in Birmingham. And you still break the first chunk off, and you still swear you will save the rest.
