Cadbury Dairy Milk Buttons Tube - 72g

For a lot of British people, Buttons were the first chocolate they were ever handed. Small enough for small hands, flat enough to share out one at a time, and still bought by grown adults who swear they are for the kids.

In Canada, people search for them by name because they want the exact ones they remember, the Dairy Milk that tastes like being eight. Plenty of parents want their own children to have the same Buttons they had, which is either lovely or a long game of revenge.

The tube holds 72g, a fair bit more than the small bags, and it travels well: lunchbox, handbag, glovebox, the arm of the sofa. Keep it somewhere cool and out of the sun and it will sit happily in the cupboard, in theory. People also press them onto birthday cakes, which is a fine use if any survive the decorating.

Buttons are usually the way in to the rest of Cadbury. A tube tends to end up in the basket next to a Dairy Milk bar, a Wispa, a Twirl or a couple of Freddos, and nobody has ever regretted that.
