Code Red: Cadbury's Selection Box Has Has Just Gotten Smaller
Hold the front page, the biggest disaster of all humanity has occurred. Selection boxes have gotten smaller!
Cadbury's stocking selection box is smaller this year than previous years - but prices will stay the same. The Mirror has reported that Cadbury has reduced the size of its Festive Favourites six-bar selection box from 208g to 194g. This is a 7 per cent drop to what the box weighed a year ago.
A spokesman for Cadbury's told The Mirror newspaper:
We have updated the range available in our selection boxes. This meant the weights of our products changed and while some increased in size, some decreased but the number or remain the same.
The retail price has therefore remained the same.
There has also been a drop in the size of the Freddo selection box with the chocolate frogs going from Cadbury’s from 154g to 139g. Oh the humanity!
