Fry's Chocolate Cream

Fry's Cream is a chocolate bar made by Cadbury's, and formerly by J. S. Fry & Sons. It consists of a fondant centre enrobed in dark chocolate and is available in a plain version, and also peppermint or orange fondant. Fry's Chocolate Cream was one of the first chocolate bars ever produced, launched in 1866. Like the first chocolate bars they are dairy-free and vegan.

There are currently three variants of Fry's Cream:

• Fry's Chocolate Cream
• Fry's Orange Cream
• Fry's Peppermint Cream

Over the years, other variants existed:

• Fry's Five Centre (orange, raspberry, lime, strawberry, and pineapple), produced from 1934 to 1992.
• Fry's Strawberry Cream
• Fry's Pineapple Cream
• Fry's Fruit Medley - from the 1960s

An unsuccessful mid-1990s relaunch attempt also saw new variants available under the modernised "Fry's Spirit" branding for a while:

• Fry's Spirit Berry Margarita
• Fry's Spirit Pina Colada
• Fry's Spirit Velvet Dream (cream liqueur)

Whether the Five Centre title was dropped briefly and relaunched as Fruit Medley (then changed back again) or they sat alongside each other despite being basically the same bar is unclear.

Cadbury's also produced a solid milk chocolate bar called Five Boys using the Fry's trademark from the early 20th century right up until the 1970s. Cadbury's produced milk and plain chocolate sandwich bars under the Fry's branding also.

Fry's chocolate bar was promoted by model George Lazenby, who later portrayed James Bond, in 1967.

The Fry's chocolate bar was first produced in Union Street, Bristol, England in 1866, where the family name had been associated with chocolate making since circa 1759. In 1923 Fry's (now Cadbury) chocolate Factory moved to Keynsham, England, but due to the imminent closure of the factory the production of the bar will move, possibly to Poland.
