Cadbury’s annual ‘Inventor’ competition is back this summer – with three new fan-made Dairy Milk bars hitting shop shelves across the UK.
The iconic British chocolate brand is spoiling those with a sweet tooth by introducing a trio of new flavours to its classic Dairy Milk range. But, as part of the popular competition, Cadbury is asking chocolate fans to ‘Be The Judge’ of this year’s new Inventor bars and make the final verdict of which flavour gets to stay on supermarket shelves.
Now in its third year, the Cadbury Inventor competition challenges the nation to come up with new and exciting flavours.
Over 180,000 entries were submitted by budding inventors across the UK and Ireland this year.
The new Dairy Milk bars – which are now available to get your hands on – are Roxy’s Cadbury Dairy Milk Fizzing Cherry, Josh’s Cadbury Dairy Milk Banoffee Nut Crumble, and Sophie’s Cadbury Dairy Milk No Frownie Brownie.

Cadbury is asking fans to taste each chocolate bar and pick their favourite based on a listing of tasting criteria, which features everything from the design of the packaging and the smell of the chocolate, right to the texture, feeling, nostalgia factor, and of course the taste.

It’ll be a tricky decision, but someone’s got to make it.
“We know the Cadbury Inventor competition is a fan-favourite because it allows for delicious new ingredients and flavours to be explored and tasted,” said Pippa Rodgers, Brand Manager at Cadbury UK.
“This year has really set the bar high.

“Together with Josh, Roxy and Sophie, we couldn’t be more excited to share the three delicious Cadbury Dairy Milk flavours with the nation – but sadly there can only be one winner [and now] it’s time for us to put it to our experts, the fans, to ‘Be The Judge’ and decide what bar is worthy of returning to supermarket shelves next year.”

Three tiny ‘chaos potatoes’ have been born at Chester Zoo and they’re so cute

Three tiny ‘chaos potatoes’ have been born at Chester Zoo… and they’re really flipping cute.
Born to parents Maris and Albert in late summer, the three rock hyrax pups – only affectionately known as ‘chaos potatoes’ – have just passed their first vet check with a clean bill of health, and now weigh roughly 350g.
Hyraxes are found across sub-Saharan Africa and the Middle East, where they live among rocky landscapes and are most active in daylight.
The litter includes two boys and one girl, and keepers at Chester Zoo have decided to give them potato-themed names – Russ, Spud, and Jackie.

Currently, the three pups are a fraction of the size of the adults, which can weigh up to 4kg, but despite their small stature, they have an unlikely relative.
Believe it or not, rock hyraxes are actually a part of the same evolutionary group as elephants, as well as sirenians, which are the family of aquatic mammals that includes dugongs and manatees.
“Hyraxes are one of those species that you have to look for, but once you’ve seen them, they are fascinating to watch,” explained Megan Carpenter, who is a Keeper at Chester Zoo.
“The pups are little chaos potatoes. They are much more energetic than their parents and sometimes get the zoomies, darting about and testing their climbing and parkour skills.
“In contrast, the adults often wedge themselves into corners and grip on to steep rock faces for hours at a time. They’re incredibly well adapted to living among rocks and are much better climbers than you might expect.”
