Chocolate Buttons and Why They’re So Popular

Posted on October 26, 2018

Chocolate Buttons

Here at Sweet Tree by Browns, we are passionate about making chocolate more beautiful and delicious than ever before. That’s why we have now combined the sweetness and smoothness of chocolate buttons with our beautiful sweet trees. Chocolate buttons are one of the most popular chocolate products sold today and are enjoyed by people all over the world every day. So, in this article we will be taking a look at why they’re so popular!

What are Cadbury Chocolate Buttons?

Chocolate buttons are flat, circular-shaped pieces of chocolate that are made to look like little buttons. Made from delicious milk chocolate, they are also available in dark and white alternatives or even with delicious fillings such as toffee or Malteser!

Chocolate buttons were first sold by Cadbury in the UK in 1960 and have since been sold in Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and throughout the UK and Ireland with great success. If you’ve never tried a chocolate button, you’re missing out because these little chocolates are bursting with melt-in-the-mouth chocolatey flavour.

Chocolate Button Sweet Trees

If you enjoy the smooth taste and texture of chocolate buttons, you will love our incredible Cadbury chocolate button sweet trees. You can pick from a variety of chocolate sweet tree flavours and designs. Here are just some of our favourites:

Cadbury Button Tree

Our Cadbury button sweet tree is mouth-watering and delicious, so you don’t want to miss out! An array of chocolate buttons layered in a beautiful spiral pattern, the Cadbury chocolate button tree is the perfect treat to say, ‘Thank you’, ‘Happy Birthday’, or ‘Just because’. The smaller sized vases (25cm and 35cm) are filled with chocolate buttons, and the larger sweet tree vases are filled with raisins.

Completely edible, except for the stem, you can munch your way through this deliciously smooth chocolatey treat!

Cadbury Buttons and Raffaello

Our cadbury buttons and raffaello sweet tree is perfect for those who enjoy Raffaello chocolates. Decorated with beautiful Raffaello chocolates around the middle, this chocolate tree is made by our chocolate connoisseurs and is the perfect gift to show someone you care.

Each vase is filed to the top with delicious chocolate buttons and even the centre of the tree is fully edible! Filled with a yummy chocolate crisp centre, our Cadbury button and Raffaello trees are ideal for multiple purposes, including gifts or centrepieces. Wrapped in a ribbon, these sweet trees are the perfect treat for any chocolate lover out there!

The Delicious Chocolate Box

For just £45 you can purchase our delicious chocolate box filled with all the best chocolate treats! Divided into four different sections, our milk chocolate boxes are filled to overflowing with lots of delicious sweet treats, including Maltesers, Smarties, Minstrels, and chocolate buttons!

Chocolate Buttons with Sprinkles

Chocolate buttons with sprinkles are so popular we thought we’d create something magical with them! Discover our Unicorn Jazzle for yourself today. Each of our Unicorn Jazzle’s is mounted on a fully-edible chocolate plaque that can be personalised to bring a smile to anyone. Covered in white chocolate buttons and hundreds and thousands, this chocolate unicorn puts a unique twist on the classic chocolate treat. What’s more, it is filled with bursts of chocolate beans, a golden horn, and decorated with edible roses.

We Create Unique Chocolate Treats

If you purchase your chocolate treats from us, you will enjoy chocolate that hasn’t come off a conveyor belt but has instead been uniquely made and personalised to you. Our little kitchen in Hertfordshire is full of family who create unique chocolate gifts everyone loves. We are here to create a unique and completely edible chocolate gift for you or a loved one. Browse our shop today to discover our full range of chocolate goodies on offer.

Why are Chocolate Buttons Round?

Many people wonder why chocolate buttons were made in the first place and why they were made to be round, instead of the traditional square or rectangular chocolate bar shapes. Charles Spence, a good sensory scientist, discovered that there is a relationship between our senses and the foods we eat. That is, we make consistent matches between the shapes of our foods and their tastes.

When it comes to chocolate, round shapes are often softer on the tongue and therefore easier to melt in the mouth, giving the impression that they taste sweeter. The sensory discovery is also why dark chocolate is sold in angular shapes, as it makes the chocolate bar taste increasingly bitter. So, when Cadbury’s created their Milk Chocolate Button range, their sales soared through the roof!

Curious Chocolate Combinations

– Add chocolate buttons to your chilli con carne – it will transform the taste into something extremely delicious!
– Our chocolate buttons in your cookies and replace the butter with avocado. It will transform your cooking, seriously.
– Melt chocolate buttons and then dip salted pretzels in for a sweet and salty snack.
– Chocolate and cheese on crackers
– You can clean your teeth with chocolate! Yes, you can buy chocolate toothpaste.
– Dip bacon in melted chocolate and enjoy that sweet and salty combination.
