Cadbury is offering a spin on two of Australia’s most iconic chocolate bars with the launch of its Cherry Ripe and Picnic Layers. 

Building on the classic flavours, the Layers range sticks true to its name, containing three sweet rich layers which are encased in a chocolate shell. 

“We know how much Australians loves Cadbury chocolate and we’re excited to introduce Cadbury Cherry Ripe and Picnic Layers, a new range of decadent chocolate bars inspired by the classic flavours we all love, taken to another level of indulgence,” said Cadbury vice president and marketing ANZ Paul Chatfield. 

Picnic Layers contains the bar’s classic crunchy peanut pieces, topped with layers of gooey caramel and soft peanut flavoured crème which is cased with Cadbury’s Dairy Milk chocolate. 

Maintaining its original juicy flavour and the Cherry Ripe flavoured jelly, the Layer’s version includes coconut flavoured crème and coconut pieces which are encased in an Old Gold dark chocolate shell. 

Cadbury Cherry Ripe Layers and Picnic Layers are available at supermarkets and independent retailers for RRP $2.00.

Packaging News

New European rules on generic environmental claims have prompted the Australasian Bioplastics Association to warn that packaging carrying poorly substantiated claims could be marketed in Australia.

Australia's environment ministers have declared packaging reform urgent and named soft plastics as an initial priority, but offered no firm timetable or regulatory commitments. SPSA has welcomed the soft plastics focus, while Boomerang Alliance and WMRR have raised concerns about the lack of concrete action.

Economic analysis commissioned by SPSA estimates national recycling reforms could deliver up to $278m in net productivity gains and stimulate up to $2.6b in capital investment each year.
