Kinnerton Marzipan Fruits

Kinnerton is no ordinary brand – it was the first brand to offer character chocolate in the UK, back in 1978.

Starting with just a desk, a very second hand Ford Cortina and a type-writer, Kinnerton Confectionery founders, Andrew Sellers and Clive Beecham, had the idea of making chocolates depicting the nation’s children’s favourite characters.
