World Chocolate Day is more than just an excuse to scoff a bar or two — it’s a global ode to our oldest, most decadent love affair: chocolate. Celebrated every year on 7th July, this date is said to mark the moment chocolate made its grand entrance into Europe in 1550. The fact that we’ve dedicated an entire day to the stuff tells you everything you need to know about its cultural stature. And at Monmore Confectionery, we’re celebrating the only way we know how — with bulk boxes of brilliance, tubs of temptation, and quite possibly the best-value chocolate in the UK.

Why 7th July? A Date Worth Melting For

While no one’s entirely certain of the exact date chocolate landed on European shores, 7th July is widely accepted as its debut moment. A gift from Mesoamerica via the Spanish conquistadors, chocolate was once a bitter ceremonial drink before it evolved into the silky smooth, cocoa-rich joy we know today. It journeyed from Aztec temples to Parisian salons, from ration bars in wartime Britain to luxury hampers — and now, thanks to us, to your stockroom in bulk.

The UK’s Chocolate Obsession (And Yours Too, Probably)

We Brits consume over 660,000 tonnes of chocolate a year. That’s roughly 11kg per person — or to put it more helpfully, enough Cadbury bars to build a structurally unsound bungalow. And speaking of Cadbury, no World Chocolate Day would be complete without the UK’s best-selling chocolate bar: the one, the only, Dairy Milk. Available at Monmore by the box — because one bar is never enough — it’s a retail essential, a lunchbox legend, and a birthday party saviour.

A Chocolate Lover’s Paradise: Cadbury and Nestlé in Bulk

• Cadbury classics — from Freddos to Fudges, all in trade-friendly formats
• Nestlé favourites — Kit Kat, Aero, Smarties and more, ready to fly off your shelves
• Boxed quantities for corner shops, pick n mix stands, party bags or your own secret stash

Our range doesn’t just tick boxes; it fills them — quite literally. Whether you're catering to school fêtes, trade counters, eBay shops or your chocolate-obsessed aunt in Margate, our chocolate collection is both massive and meticulously selected.

New Age Indulgence: The Rise of the Choc Nibble

If Cadbury is tradition and Nestlé is familiarity, then Choc Nibbles are chocolate’s cheeky younger sibling. Slightly chaotic in shape, dangerously moreish, and wildly underpriced for what they deliver, they’ve become a cult hit — especially among social media snackers and late-night fridge-raiders.

• Original Choc Nibbles — messy in looks, mighty in taste
• Chocolate Mint Nibbles — like After Eights had a sugar-fuelled rave
• Birthday Cake Nibbles — soft, colourful chaos in a jar
• Pre-packed 125g bags — perfect for resale, parties, or emergency snacking

Whether you sell them, gift them, or sneak them into your desk drawer, these Sweet Dreams concoctions are designed for impulse joy. And we have them in jars so big they double as gym weights.
