Smarties
TIME OUT - layers of wafer with Cadbury Flake centre covered in Cadbury chocolate. Smarties were launched as Chocolate Beans in 1937. Initially priced at 2d, they were renamed Smarties and packed in the famous tube one year later. The eight original colours – red, yellow, orange, green, mauve, pink, light brown and brown –
remained the same until the replacement of the light brown by a blue Smarties following a successful promotion in 1989. Before 1958, the dark brown Smarties had a plain chocolate centre the light brown one tasted of coffee.
