Cadbury Dairy Milk launches taste-led campaign

Cadbury Dairy Milk launches taste-led campaign

Cadbury Dairy Milk is launching a new taste-led marketing campaign this month celebrating the iconic taste of "the nation’s favourite chocolate": “It’s the Glass & A Half that makes the Taste & A Half”. Helping to prompt key, familiar occasions for consumers across the UK, the campaign assets will hero and remind shoppers of the delicious taste of Cadbury Dairy Milk as part of a far-reaching investment into brand communications in 2022.

The communications campaign will run for approximately the next six weeks, achieving a reach of 80 per cent of adult consumers. Distinctive assets featuring familiar, in-home settings will be rolled out on digital, social and OOH. Retailers should ensure their full range of Cadbury Dairy Milk singles and tablets are well-stocked and visible throughout the campaign to tap into the additional demand and interest from shoppers.

Matthew Hoggard grilling with Andrew Peace wine during Sunshine Food Tour in UK

Andrew Peace has teamed up with cricket legend Matthew ‘Hoggy’ Hoggard for summer 2025 with an ambitious food-led campaign

Andrew Peace to make TV debut in new food-led summer campaign

Australian wine brand Andrew Peace has announced its biggest-ever British campaign this summer with a major integrated marketing campaign, which includes its TV advertising debut.

The family-owned winery from the Murray Valley - which partners with UK industry giant Kingsland Drinks for its UK operations - will team up with England cricket legend turned grill school king Matthew Hoggard to drive its relevance at the summer barbecue occasion and assert its “Good Times Are Now” brand ethos.

The campaign will place its celebrated quality and price credentials at the centre alongside its stamp of approval from Good Housekeeping Institute.

Called The Sunshine Food Tour, the ambitious campaign will include targeted digital TV advertising, a heavy-weight ambassador campaign, a series of partnerships in the food space, recipe creation and photography, consumer research and PR and influencer activity developed to assert the brand throughout summer.

The campaign aims to place the brand at the very heart of the “big shop” for sunny days in the garden, barbecues-on-a budget with friends and alfresco eating, as well as being front of mind for smaller, more ad-hoc shops inspired by great summer days and good weather.

The campaign comes off the back of a period of growth for the brand, which has seen it expand its national footprint in recent months. The vegan-friendly four-wine range boasts Good Housekeeping Institute accreditation, which is highlighted on the caps as a cue for quality and craftsmanship.

“Andrew Peace is gaining momentum very quickly in the UK and the brand has already earned a loyal fan base of shoppers who appreciate its well-made wines and excellent value prices. This year, the investment is the biggest and boldest yet, meaning that we can propel the brand to new heights with TV advertising as well as a plethora of other marketing tactics which are aimed squarely at UK shoppers,” Vicky Wood, head of brand development and insights at Kingsland Drinks, said.

“As purse strings tighten, consumers are still looking for ways to eat and drink well at home and this has been something which the brand is perfectly placed to deliver. During the Covid lockdowns, Andrew Peace kicked off its UK summer takeover with its “Good Times are Now” brand platform and this campaign forms the latest chapter of the series.

“The Sunshine Food Tour will show Brits how to pair the great wines with easy to make, tasty barbecue classics on a budget. With Matthew ‘Hoggy’ Hoggard and his grill school at the helm, we will bring the recipes to life across a wide number of channels, encouraging Brits to enjoy big eats and big flavours without breaking the bank.

“Andrew Peace wines are created and crafted by Andrew and his family at his winery in the Murray Valley, South Australia, and bottled, packed and distributed here in the UK by Kingsland Drinks. This eco-friendly and efficient way of shipping wines to the UK from sunny Australia means that shoppers get to enjoy well-made, great quality wines for less - something which truly resonates with shoppers in the current climate.”

The campaign will roll out across the UK ahead of the peak summer trading period, supporting current listings and driving the brand forward with UK consumers.

Takeaway Pockets: Wall’s new bold snack range hits chilled aisles

Wall's Pastry launches new Takeaway Pockets

Leading sausage roll brand Wall’s has announced the launch of its new Takeaway Pockets, aiming to drive excitement in the food-to-go fixture.

Building on the success of the brand’s £20m+ slices range, the new trio of Takeaway Pockets – available in three takeaway flavours, Pepperoni Pizza, Cheeseburger and Bombay Potato Curry – offers a smaller version, designed as a lighter snack or meal option.

Each recipe is inspired by the UK’s favourite takeaway dishes to resonate with a younger, trend-driven generation.

Packed with flavour: Wall’s Takeaway Pockets target on-the-go consumers

The Pepperoni Pizza Slice is loaded with rich tomato sauce, extra mature cheddar, and smoky pepperoni for a nostalgic slice of pizza in a pastry shell. The Cheeseburger Slice combines a savoury beef filling with gooey cheddar, tangy pickles and classic burger sauce for a fun twist on the fast-food favourite. Completing the line-up is the Bombay Potato Curry Slice, offering a comforting, melt-in-the-mouth spiced potato filling bursting with warming Indian flavours, perfect for vegans, vegetarians and flexitarians.

Designed to stand out on shelf, the packaging features bold colours and vibrant graphics inspired by the neon lights and lively energy of UK takeaway culture, providing a visual cue that will instantly connect with younger shoppers.

Ready-to-eat straight from the pack, or enjoyed heated up later on, the new pockets are perfect for grabbing on-the-go, tucking into as a lunchtime pick-me-up or as part of a meal deal.

“Wall’s is building on the success of its slices range by tapping into the nation’s love of big, bold takeaway tastes,” Jason Manley, Brand Director at The Compleat Food Group, home of Wall’s, said.

“As a leading brand in the Chilled Savoury Pastry category, with strong resonance among younger consumers, we’re well placed to attract new audiences and bring real excitement to the food-to-go fixture.

“Our new Takeaway Pockets do exactly that. With three standout recipes launching the range, we’re confident they will capture the attention of new, younger shoppers, while also offering something fresh and exciting to existing consumers.”

Wall’s Takeaway Pocket Pepperoni Pizza Slice, Takeaway Pocket Cheeseburger Slice and Takeaway Pocket Bombay Potato Curry Slice (130g, RRP £1.50) will be available across the convenience channel from May.
