This year, Cadbury is helping consumers in the UK spread some festive cheer with a Secret Santa service. By stopping at one of the branded pop-up post offices, people are able to send a complimentary bar of chocolate to someone special throughout the holiday season. Some of the options available include classic choices from the confection brand's Dairy Milk range, as well as seasonal favorites like the Winter Wonderland chocolate. In the spirit of Secret Santa, recipients will receive their surprise chocolate bar gift from an anonymous sender.
The Cadbury Secret Santa Postal Services pop-up will be traveling across 10 UK cities this season, hitting major destinations like Cardiff, Birmingham, Liverpool and Manchester in the months of November and December.
