{"title":"Cadbury","description":"\u003ch2\u003eAbout Cadbury\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCadbury is one of Britain's oldest and most-loved chocolate brands, founded in 1824 by John Cadbury at a small grocer's shop in Birmingham. The famous Bournville factory opened in 1879 and remains one of the brand's manufacturing sites, though production of specific bars has spread across European factories since the brand was acquired by Mondelez International in 2010. The product range still leans heavily on the original UK recipes, and the bars on this page are the British formulations rather than the regional variants sold in some other markets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree of the brand's longest-running standalone bars are stocked here: Twirl, Flake and Crunchie. All three are over 70 years old as products, and all three retain a clear identity in a chocolate aisle that increasingly tends towards filled bars and limited editions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTwirl vs Flake vs Crunchie: what's actually different?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the most-confused area of the Cadbury single-bar range.
