Cadbury Dairy Milk goes 'Irresistible'
Cadbury Dairy Milk is inviting chocolate lovers to discover something new with the launch of Irresistible — a range created to make every bite feel special, elevated and multi-sensory.
The Irresistible range adds generous, indulgent fillings that bring depth, texture, and warmth to every moment. It’s indulgence redefined. A little extra joy. And a reminder that great chocolate should always feel like a treat.
Irresistible Nutty Cream: Simple. Rich. Completely satisfying. Beneath the classic Cadbury Dairy Milk chocolate is a smooth, nutty cream filling that melts beautifully before revealing a gentle crunch. The result is a perfectly balanced bite—creamy, comforting, and quietly indulgent.
Irresistible Sticky Toffee: Inspired by beloved dessert flavors, this variant wraps smooth Dairy Milk chocolate around layers of caramel-flavored crème, soft caramel, and salted toffee pieces. Chewy and deeply comforting, it’s designed to be enjoyed slowly—or shared in moments that matter.
Available in slices and minis, it brings a little indulgence to any time of day.
Lisa Roberts, head of marketing for the Gulf, Saudi Arabia and developing markets at Mondelez said: “This launch reflects our passion for innovation and our commitment to creating the best experiences for our consumers. With the Irresistible range, we’ve brought together a unique multi-layer, multi-sensory proposition for a more indulgent experience, inviting you to enjoy moments of goodness.”
Every detail of the Irresistible range has been thoughtfully created to deliver a richer chocolate experience. From the generous fillings to the satisfying textures, it’s chocolate made to be savored—not rushed.
With Irresistible, Cadbury Dairy Milk continues to evolve, bringing new ideas to a much-loved classic while staying true to what makes it special. It’s a celebration of flavor, comfort, and the simple pleasure of a great piece of chocolate.
The Cadbury Dairy Milk Irresistible range is now available across the Gulf states.
