Cadbury Chocolate: James Cadbury's Ethical UK Chocolate

Founder

James Cadbury

“Inspired by my great-great-great grandfather, John Cadbury, I founded Love Cocoa to create delicious, premium chocolate made responsibly and with purpose. Today, our mission is to drive positive change within the chocolate industry, supporting the people and communities who make it all possible.”

RESPONSIBLE CHOCOLATE

DELICIOUS — AND BETTER FOR THE PEOPLE BEHIND IT

Our mission is to make chocolate that creates positive change for the people who grow and craft it.
By processing much of our cocoa at origin in Colombia, we help keep more wealth within farming communities — rewarding the skill, care, and hard work that go into every bar.
Chocolate that tastes good and does good.

CHOCOLATE RUNS IN THE FAMILY

A PROUD CADBURY HISTORY

The inspiration behind Love Cocoa comes from founder James Cadbury's, great-great-great grandfather John Cadbury, who set up Cadbury chocolate nearly 200 years ago.

A philanthropist and anti-slavery campaigner himself, John Cadbury built his company on great ethical grounds, looking after its workforce and improving civil rights, and it is these same ethical values that remain at the heart of our company today.

We're making chocolate history. Again.

THE LOVE COCOA JOURNEY

James Cadbury is born.

His family are no longer involved in the chocolate industry, but the Cadbury family tradition of philanthropy and entrepreneurship continues.

Following a hostile and controversial takeover of Cadbury by Mondelez in 2010, the Cadbury company lost its status as a British brand and four hundred jobs were lost.
