In 2014, it acquired Turkey’s Oltan Group – a local market leader that procures, processes and sells nuts. Their small business becomes a big enough brand to break the monopoly the French had previously exerted on the British market. Richard makes the first British made chocolate boxes. He artistically adorns them with designs that will come to epitomise the Victorian/Edwardian era. They make their first Cadbury Easter Egg in 1875 (the ubiquitous cream one isn’t invented till 1971).

Square names were apparently based on Darrow’s childhood memories of Atlantic City, hence the famously misspelt name of ‘Marvin Gardens’ (a formal apology was issued to the residents of Marven Gardens in 1995).

Such competitors count on a variety of recipes from vegan or gluten and palm oil free, but often charge a higher price.
