Celebrations is a miniature chocolate bar collection made by Mars, Incorporated, launched in 1997. It comprises miniature versions of full size Mars brands.[1] Celebrations have the tagline "Share the joy", and were one of the first mixed box of chocolates in the United Kingdom to bring together confectionery which had been already released in one box or tin instead of introducing new, especially-created confectionery made exclusively for the UK market, by a major producer.[2] Celebrations boxes are now sold in multiple countries which tend to have the same brands as the UK (Galaxy goes under Dove in most countries), but do differ in some circumstances. Twix does not come in Australian celebrations for example.
Contents[]
The selection sold in the United Kingdom also previously had:
- Galaxy Truffle (1997–2011)
- Topic (1997–2006)
In some countries, the Milky Way Bar has been replaced, or is under limited edition. In these countries, it is usually replaced with Milky Way crispy rolls, which was introduced in 2017.
In the United States version, Milky Way and Dove were replaced with the American versions, and Maltesers Teasers is not a part of the selection.
