Cadbury South Africa launches new line of dessert-flavored chocolates, including strawberry cheesecake and birthday cake

July 7, 22:31

The assortment includes the following options: Cadbury Dream Strawberry Cheesecake, which is an exquisite embodiment of a dessert hit, combining the creamy taste of cheesecake with a delicate strawberry filling encased in velvety Dream chocolate. Also available is Cadbury Dairy Milk Crunchy Hazelnut Bliss, which merges the creamy taste of Cadbury Dairy Milk chocolate with the crunchy texture of roasted hazelnuts. Furthermore, there is Cadbury Dream Birthday Cake, which features cookie pieces and vibrant sprinkles wrapped in creamy vanilla Dream chocolate to make every day a celebration.

Improvements and Concept

To complement the new flavors, Cadbury has released an enhanced 136g size, designed to elevate the overall sense of luxury. These bars are packaged in stylish new wrapping that hints at the contents even before the first bite. The core idea of the collection was to recreate the feeling of the first appetizing bite of a freshly baked cake—soft, decadent, and multi-layered in flavor—and translate it into a chocolate bar format.

Each bar is designed to create a multi-sensory experience where smooth Cadbury chocolate meets dessert flavors inspired by pastries, textural additions, and bursts of flavor that feel both nostalgic and sophisticated. This line is intended for slower, more enjoyable moments in life, bringing warmth and richness to times such as a quiet evening at home, a mid-day coffee break, or a well-deserved reward at the end of a long day.

Innovations in Portfolio

A distinctive feature of this series is how it connects two worlds: the familiar creaminess of Cadbury chocolate with sophisticated, café-style dessert flavors usually reserved for special occasions. This latest innovation complements Cadbury's portfolio by offering fans new ways to enjoy the product and stimulating interest in the chocolate category. The special Cadbury collection is now available in retail stores across the country.

Recipe for a Rich Homemade Chocolate Cake

To make a luxurious homemade chocolate cake, you will need a number of ingredients. The list includes 2 cups of flour, 2 cups of granulated sugar, 3/4 cup of unsweetened cocoa powder, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking soda, 1 teaspoon of salt, 2 eggs, 1 cup of milk, 1/2 cup of vegetable oil, 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract, and 1 cup of boiling water.

Dough Preparation Process

Start by preparing two 9-inch round baking pans: they must be greased and dusted with flour, and the oven should be preheated to 175°C to prevent the batter from sticking.

First, mix the dry components: all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.

Combining Wet and Dry Ingredients

In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then add the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla. Mix until fully combined. After that, gradually add the wet mixture to the dry, continuing to mix until a smooth batter is obtained, avoiding overmixing; small lumps are acceptable.

The key step is adding the boiling water, which will give the cake a rich and tender texture, although the batter will become thinner. Then, spread the batter evenly between the prepared pans. Bake in the preheated oven for 30–35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Biting into such a cake reveals a symphony of flavors, including rich cocoa, perfect sweetness, and a moist, melt-in-your-mouth texture.

Making the Ganache

For the ganache, you need 1 large bar of regular milk chocolate and a small amount of Nestle cream or half a large can. Melt the chocolate, then add the Nestle cream and mix them thoroughly together.
