Be a hero by knowing what to bring to any social occasion

We have all been there, you’re invited to a friend’s house for a braai or a dinner party and you are told not to bring a thing. You’re then left feeling somewhat awkward when you actually arrive empty handed! You’re all like hello (I wish I brought something with), thanks for having us over. Not all hero’s wear capes and can fly… sometimes they just save you from embarrassing situations. Now you can be your own hero by keeping a few of these items at home to save yourself from this social conundrum.

Some of my favourite gifts to bring to a party are;

1. A bottle of wine

2. A small pot plant

3. A box of Cadbury Heroes chocolates

Everyone loves pretty plants, wine and chocolate! So, I always keep a few bottles of wine and a few boxes of Cadbury Heroes chocolates in our pantry. For those ‘just in case’ or lastminute.com moments that tend to spring up on us all. I’m loving Cadbury’s new product, Cadbury Heroes. Just in time for the long weekends and upcoming social engagements. You’ll never have to feel awkward about showing up empty handed again.

If you’re asking yourself what these Cadbury Heroes are, they’re a box of chocolates available in generous 320g packs. Cadbury Heroes has a selection of everyone’s favourite chocolates in miniature variants. Including Lunch Bar, Chomp, Flake, Dairy Milk and Cadbury Dairy Milk Top Deck.  We’ve all tasted and loved the full-sized options, so we are well aware of the deliciousness that awaits us inside. This box full of joy just waiting to be freed, was made to share with friends and family over the festive season. Especially over the Easter period, which is well known as a chocoholics’ favourite season.

So, now you can have much, much more to enjoy, be that flake girl enjoying a flake in a bubble bath this long weekend, don’t be a dairy milk gorilla, just take a chomp out of this box full of joy.

We managed to get a statement from Grant van Niekerk and this is what he had to say about the launch of this new product. “Cadbury Heroes is a great addition to the Cadbury range of chocolate gifting solutions.” says Grant van Niekerk, Mondelez SA Category Director for Chocolate. ‘Not only is it jampacked with our favourite mini variants, but it takes the thinking out of giving for everyday social occasions.”

I know what I’m bringing to Easter lunch this weekend….  #TheThingToBring

Chocolate just makes every celebratory situation even better. But on those rare days when you’re feeling a little blue, and you need a hero, look no further. Just stop at the shops and buy a little box of soldiers to fill you up with endorphins and keep those blues at bay……

Cadbury Heroes retail for R 79,99 and they are available at all major retailers nationwide.
