Shaped by you
Tastes and attitudes towards chocolate have evolved since Cadbury sold drinking chocolate to our first Irish customer in Dublin in 1842.
A constant throughout Cadbury’s history is a desire to understand what you, our consumers, want and enjoy in chocolate, and how we can delight you time after time.
To illustrate how this remains true today, our Cadbury Unwrapped report identifies the trends shaping chocolate consumption today, and how these have influenced the Cadbury products you love.

Cadbury today, and tomorrow
Ever since Cadbury sold drinking chocolate to our first Irish customer in Dublin in 1842, we have created delicious tasting products that delight the nation while supporting the people that work for us and the communities we serve.
These values shape us, and as we look to the future, we’re committed to staying true to these words, and investing in our Irish footprint.
