'Crafted with love at the Shah Alam plant by over 250 chocolate-makers, Cadbury Dairy Milk embodies a commitment to quality and innovation,' the company stated yesterday, in front of selected local media representatives at the brand's only plant in Southeast Asia. It added that the plant has been certified halal by the Department of Islamic Development Malaysia (Jakim) since 1994 and adheres to the highest food safety and quality standards.

'Today, we are proud to build this continued connection with our fans with the launch of our new and more enriching Cadbury Dairy Milk chocolates that are richer and more chocolatey with every bite.' 'Not just a chocolate bar' See stated that Cadbury's 'Glass and a Half' spirit is rooted in generosity and the belief in uplifting others in meaningful ways. 'This comes to life through initiatives that celebrate everyday kindness, such as 'For You I Would' and 'Cadbury Kuih Raya Dari Hati'. In partnership with MyKasih Foundation, 'Kuih Raya Dari Hati' is a bake-for-charity initiative that empowers women from underserved communities with a chance to showcase their skills, earn additional income and support other communities in need during the festive season. 'Since its launch in 2021, the programme has grown into a national movement that blends cultural celebration with social impact. In 2024, it was recognised by the Malaysia Book of Records for the baking of 150,000 Cadbury chocolate tarts, donated to over 30 welfare homes and underserved communities through Food Aid Foundation. More than just a charitable initiative, it created real income opportunities ahead of the festive season while fostering a strong sense of community.' The richer and more chocolatey Cadbury Dairy Milk, including the King Size 200gm bar is now available nationwide. 'With a renewed recipe and a heartfelt mission to spread joy, Cadbury invites Malaysians to fall in love with chocolate all over again,' said See.

How to save money on chocolate We all love a bit of chocolate from now and then, but you don't have to break the bank buying your favourite bar. Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how to cut costs... Go own brand - if you're not too fussed about flavour and just want to supplant your chocolate cravings, you'll save by going for the supermarket's own brand bars. Shop around - if you've spotted your favourite variety at the supermarket, make sure you check if it's cheaper elsewhere. Websites like let you compare prices on products across all the major chains to see if you're getting the best deal. Look out for yellow stickers - supermarket staff put yellow, and sometimes orange and red, stickers on to products to show they've been reduced. They usually do this if the product is coming to the end of its best-before date or the packaging is slightly damaged. Buy bigger bars - most of the time, but not always, chocolate is cheaper per 100g the larger the bar. So if you've got the appetite, and you were going to buy a hefty amount of chocolate anyway, you might as well go bigger.

A second added: "Yummy!" A third revealed: "I got three today. "They've already been eaten." Cadbury has more new products coming next month. It is adding to their Twirl range with a limited-edition Twirl White Dipped bar, which will be available from early June 2025.

We've outdone ourselves with this one' say Cadbury Ireland as they reveal new limited edition bar 'coming soon The iconic chocolate brand shared the news in a post on Facebook earlier this month. "OK but we've really outdone ourselves with this one," it told chocoholics. It described the new flavour as "unreal, indulgent, smooth, swirly, creamy, melty, new, and mouthwatering."

Making a comeback Earlier this month, chocolate fans were buzzing with excitement after spotting a new Cadbury treat that brings back fond memories of a beloved classic. The discovery was shared in the popular Facebook group, Food Finds UK, where shoppers were quick to notice its striking similarity to the nostalgic Cadbury Tasters. The new treat, named Cadbury Dairy Milk Balls, is said to resemble the discontinued Tasters, which first appeared in 1996. These small, round Dairy Milk chocolates were similar to Maltesers but lacked the crunchy centre. Despite their rich, chocolatey taste, Cadbury Tasters were quietly discontinued in the mid-2000s due to low sales.

Cadbury confirms its discontinued much-loved biscuit treat
Has your favourite product vanished from shelves? We'd love to hear from you - email us on money@ Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) CADBURY has discontinued its Bournville fingers in spite of rave reviews from fans. The crispy biscuits were a popular item within Cadbury's Bournville range, which features dark chocolate products. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 Cadbury has discontinued its dark chocolate fingers But manufacturer Cadbury this week confirmed it has ended the treat, having originally launched it in October 2020 as a lockdown treat to share at home. The Fingers were praised for being less sweet than the ordinary Dairy Milk fingers, meaning you could eat more of them at any one time. One fan said on the Asda website: 'I used to enjoy the regular chocolate fingers but since I've tried these I'm a convert! They are soo delicious especially with a cup of tea, and because they aren't as sweet as the usual chocolate fingers, they are also very moreish! 'Would recommend for everyone!' Another added: 'Just delicious. I'm a plain chocolate person, so made up with these.' A third said: 'Can't believe how nice they are. Were sadly gone in minutes.' The product had been particularly popular with vegans, as it did not contain milk, but there was disappointment in 2022 after skimmed milk powder was included in the recipe. Cadbury's owner Mondelēz International said: 'We continuously adapt our product range to ensure it meets changing tastes whilst supporting growth for our customers and our business. "Our Cadbury Bournville Fingers were discontinued this year. However, we still have plenty of other delicious products for consumers to enjoy, such as our Cadbury Bournville Giant Dark Buttons and our classic Cadbury Dairy Milk Chocolate Fingers.' It's not the first time a discontinued product has caused upset. Cadbury has also confirmed it has discontinued its Fry's Coffee Cream bars, while dark chocolate Toberlones have also gone. Walkers confirm they've discontinued fan favourite flavour Meanwhile, Aldi has axed its Dairyfine Blonde chocolate bar, leaving fans upset as they struggle to find their favourite sweet treat. DISCONTINUED DARK CHOCOLATE It comes as Brits have had to wave goodbye to a number of dark chocolate bars. Toblerone axed the dark chocolate version of the bar earlier this year. Mars axed its dark chocolate Bounty in 2023, leaving customers heartbroken. At the time shoppers said the moves was "bad for their mental health". Others were quick to share their pain with one fan saying: "Noooooo. Dark chocolate Bountys beat milk chocolate Bountys hands down. And it's not only dark chocolate fans getting bruised, a number of beloved chocolate bars have vanished from shelves in recent years. Nestlé confirmed two years ago that it had axed the Caramac bar, first launched in the late 1950s, due to "low sales". But the treat has been spotted sporadically at bargain retailers since. However, it's not all bad news sometimes iconic chocolate bars make a return. Milky Way Crispy Rolls returned earlier after they were discontinued three years ago.
