The Beginning of Cadbury
The story started in 1824 when John Cadbury opened a grocer’s shop in Birmingham. Being a devout Quaker, John didn’t drink alcohol; he preferred the sweet taste of hot chocolate. He prepared this treat himself, grinding the ingredients in a pestle and mortar to share with his discerning clientele.
Inspired by Swiss chocolatiers, George Cadbury Jr. was challenged to create a bar with more milk than any other on the market. While the Swiss used condensed milk for sweetness, British versions used milk powder. George succeeded, and when a customer's daughter suggested the name 'Dairy Milk', it was an instant hit.
From Bean to Bar
Cadbury sources cocoa from Ghana. The beans are fermented to develop flavor, dried in the sun, and shipped to North Wales. There, beans are roasted and ground into thick cocoa mass.
The cocoa mass is mixed with sugar and fresh full-fat milk to create the famous "Cadbury Crumb." At the Bournville factory, this crumb is rolled, tempered for shine, and moulded into bars. Fun Fact: The factory can wrap 64,800 bars of Dairy Milk in just one hour!
