All too true Paul, only one line of chocolate going fair trade is pathetic. There is no reason why they can't go totally fair trade except for greed on their behalf. The add is a waste of marketing money that doesn't make sense! I would have to agree with Adrian, Is Cadbury being represented by a giant head sucking the cocoa out of Africa?

The music and rythym is so Africa! I used to live in Nigeria and I swear this street scene could be filmed in my old town. It is so colourful and represents so much of daily life there. The colours, music, smiles and characters are awesome! I love Africa! I love this ad!!! The music and rythym is so Africa!

Divine is owned and run by ghanaian cocoa farmers themselves.... though it’s the folks at Divine chocolate who are now providing the cocoa for dairy milk, they still get paid less than they do for their own brand Divine – so justice wise, best to buy divine choc!!
