There's a place in Santa Monica, off 3rd Street Promenade as I remember, which is actually run by a British lady living in California - it's about a block or two from the beach, just back from Santa Monica Pier. It's a British pub with proper 'pub grub' and Guinness, and a small shop with Cadbury's chocolate, imported and a couple of dollars a bar. It would be well worth a visit if you live anywhere near here - other than that, check out any British store, as they appear to do quite well in certain areas. The lady I spoke to in Santa Monica says she gets tons of British people in for a Cadbury's fix - there are a LOT of British expats in Southern California, apparently. Rosalita- Yes I can!

Cadbury isn't chocolate. It's so much more than that. It's a culinary delightful tastebud tingling existential experience.<br/><br/>SG I agree. Cadbury isn’t chocolate. It’s so much more than that.
