What a great video - I happened on it because I have a sumptuous Caley’s chocolate box (late 20s/early 30s) which contains the lead pieces of a miniature garden set made by Britains - that belonged to my mother. I’d upload an image if I could!

@christate3976 3 года назад

Fantastic channel , great historical facts and a pleasure to now know of them

@petertate5741 3 года назад

I also remember when we called it Nestles not bloody Nestlé !!!

@joconnor9256 3 года назад

Mackintosh toffees were my absolute favourites , we could get them here in Australia in most supermarkets but unfortunately they disappeared from our shelves Two years ago my husband travelled to New Zealand and to my delight found them in what is their Woolworths supermarket He brought me back 12 bags of these gorgeous toffees 🥰 of course their all gone now and until this pandemic passes I’ll just have to dream about them 😊

@traceyculyer5811 2 года назад

Thank you . so much history, My Uncle worked there and he used to bring home chocolates swept from the floor, they were still delicious. I remember those's Easter eggs, I do miss RoloThough

3:53 The power of advertising and branding, sadly making people believe that a less chocolate content makes better chocolate.

@gauz1515 Год назад

True…

@markperuzzi5055 3 года назад

Very interesting

@lesleysmith51 2 года назад

Very enjoyable presentation. Seeing all those chocolates and sweets and crackers was so mouth watering (not the crackers). I used to buy my dad a packet of Rolos for his birthday when I was a little girl. Crunchies and Quality Street yum. I don't remember Caleys though I must have eaten some of their products. They were ahead of their time with mineral water. Another great presentation with great illustrations.

@lewis72 3 года назад

I don't think that the reincarnated Caley's still operate today. They did have a website and you could buy their chocolate in Tescos, amongst many other places but I've seen nothing from them over the past few years. I even wrote an email to them some years ago: In September 2016 I asked: _"Could you please tell me if the chocolate is available in any outlets and if the range is due to eb expanded at any point."_ The reply I received was: _"Thanks for getting in touch._ _I’m afraid there is only the limited range that you have seen available and it is only directly from ourselves at present._ _We do not currently have any plans for future product releases or to replenish our current stocks._ _Sorry to disappoint!"_

@alittlebitofhistory 3 года назад

Thank you for letting me know, I couldn't figure it out either I found 1 site that would say they were still in operation even if only occasionally and another would say they had totally shut up shop so I went on the side of caution, Its a shame that it seems to have truly now gone forever.

@lewis72 3 года назад

@@alittlebitofhistory I'm guessing that the 3 former Rowntree-Mackintosh guys had got to retirement age and didn't have much in place to keep it going beyond their working years. It is a shame that it's gone now, even of the products were made down in Gloucestershire somewhere but there was a Caley's Café in the Guild Hall and they even opened up a short-lived 2nd café at White Lion Street. I went to the café at the Guild Hall a number of times, it was a good experience. I also got a Caley's mug ! Their website, caleys.com/ , is still active and copyrighted 2021. Companies House has the company as Active but not trading.

@alittlebitofhistory 3 года назад

@@lewis72 Interesting that the site is still up, just sad how many of the old Norwich business are gone, pretty sure Jarrolds might be the last man standing, Colman's is gone. Bullards is technically back I guess but I guess that is up for debate.

@totalgeezerok Год назад

I also have been trying to find out what has happened. Its such a shame you cant find it atm. I hope it comes back one day to Norwich.

@tonypearce1876 3 года назад

My Aunt use to work at Caley’s, Staff we’re told that they could munch away at chocolates any old time. Seems that did the trick of any pilferage, anyone had in mind.

@alittlebitofhistory 3 года назад

I believe it was pretty common in a lot of Chocolate factories for a time, I believe the thinking was after a couple months you would just be so use to it you would hardly touch the stuff.

@tonypearce1876 3 года назад

A Little Bit Of History…..Thank you for your reply. That would work for me!!! And again a very good video. Cheers from Walnut Grove, near Vancouver.🙂

One of my aunts was fired by Caley's in the 1920's/1930's for not putting enough chocolates in a box.

10:42 I’ve seen a really good documentary about this! It was absolutely fascinating. I can’t recall the name of the show, but they had 3 experts on to find out who these people could be. If you like, I’ll do some research to get the name so you can see it, if you like? 👍🏻✨

I have a sweet tooth, but have no chocolate in the house.😁 You speak so fast I had to re-watch this. Is this your strategy to get more views? 😁 But, that was interesting to learn about the seasonal soda, mineral water, cocoa, well everything actually. Thank you for sharing. 😊

@alittlebitofhistory 3 года назад

Sorry for the delay in replying have been busy with work, Thank you for the feedback I hadn't realised that its probably a mix of how I speak and slightly over editing out pauses but I will keep an eye on it in future, already have the next few video recorded but will see what I can do in future.

@TaLesOfTheDoXie 3 года назад

Oh, I’m glad you saw my comment, I was actually beginning to wonder. (Silly, but I was) Yes, perhaps a bit slower would help ...me anyway.😊 If you want to do a video on the Mothman prophecies sometime, that’d be fine. I’m very interested in this phenomenon, which is too perplexing.😶
