Cadbury dropped from royal warrant list after 170 years

Cadbury chocolates have lost the endorsement of the English Royal Family after being left off the list of Royal Warrants in 2024.
Cadbury chocolates have missed the list for the first time since 1854, which is the first to be published under the reign of King Charles.
The brand was reportedly a lifelong favourite of Queen Elizabeth II.

Royal warrants are an endorsement for a company or product given out in the name of the King or Queen of England every year.
This year's list reviewed all the companies that had Royal Warrants at the time of Queen Elizabeth II's death.
Other chocolate makers, including Prestat Limited, Bendicks (Mayfair) limited, and Nestle remain on the list of royal warrants.

Several other luxury food producers kept their warrant including Champagne makers Moet & Chandon.
Queen Camilla also added several companies to the Warrant list, including dressmakers, a hairdresser and a vet clinic.

Alongside Cadbury, about 100 brands and products had their warrant withdrawn in this year's list.
Each warrant is given for up to five years at once and lets the company use the Royal Arms for branding purposes.
Cadbury was founded in Birmingham, England in 1824, and was bought by US company Kraft in 2010 before the business was restructured as Mondelez International.
