Cadbury: Birmingham-based chocolate makers Cadbury shrink the size of popular multipack treats

Cadbury, historically based in Birmingham, has made changes to its Freddo multipacks

Cadbury has confirmed a size decrease in Freddo multipacks, although the price remains unchanged despite the size decrease.

Over the years, the Freddo bar has increased in price, and for a singular bar in 2025, the price currently stands at 30p or more.

However, Cadbury has now shrunken the size of its Freddo multipacks by 20% according to The Grocer.

The multipacks were previously sized at 5x18g for the usual Freddo multipack, and 5x19.5g for the Caramel Freddo multipack. Now, the multipacks are sized 4x18g for Freddo, and 4x19.5g for Caramel Freddo.

Despite the decrease in size, Cadbury has not reduced the price of the Freddo multipacks, which are still priced for around £1.40 across UK supermarkets.

A spokesperson for Cadbury owner Mondelez International, said to The Grocer that the change to Freddo multipacks was made due to "significantly higher input costs.”

They further confirmed that ingredients used in Freddo have risen in price, leading to the Freddo being expensive to make.

They continued: “This means that our products continue to be much more expensive to make and while we have absorbed these costs where possible, we still face considerable challenges.

“As a result of this difficult environment, we have had to make the decision to slightly reduce the weight of our Cadbury Dairy Milk Freddo multipacks so that we can continue to provide consumers with the brands they love, without compromising on the great taste and quality they expect."
