Cadbury’s launched its “Regions & Countries” series of mugs

In the 1980s, Cadbury’s launched its “Regions & Countries” series of mugs, blending the brand’s national identity with local pride. These promotional items highlighted different areas of Britain, reinforcing Cadbury’s image as a household name deeply connected to everyday life.

The Cumbria edition reflects the county’s rich natural and cultural heritage — from the scenic Lake District and its literary associations with Wordsworth and Beatrix Potter, to its historic towns and farming traditions. Produced in durable stoneware, the mug embodies the era’s trend of branded kitchenware, where everyday items doubled as advertising memorabilia.

Today, mugs from the Cadbury’s Regions & Countries series are sought after by collectors of food advertising, regional memorabilia, and 1980s kitchenware, offering a tangible link to both local identity and Britain’s favourite chocolate brand
