Cadbury does not own the color purple

Yesterday, I brought you a story about a victory for Ferrero Rocher. Well today, here's a victory for the little guy.

There's been a five year court battle between Cadbury and an Australian chocolate maker, Darrell Lea. The international chocolate giant claims that it owns the color purple as far as packaging and marketing chocolate is concerned. Cadbury says that Darrell Lea, who uses purple for "its store signage, uniforms and products was too similar to its own and confused customers."

There are only so many colors, in all reality. There are far more people making chocolate products than there are colors to go around. As long as one isn't directly copying the look of another, I think that we can share a few colors.

Greenpeace raises alarm about GM Easter chocolate

Greenpeace has issued a warning regarding chocolate Easter eggs. According to the environmental group, some confectioners use genetically engineered ingredients and/or dairy from animals raised on genetically engineered feedstock. The group is rightfully concerned about potential health risks.

One of the makers it has called to task is Cadbury. Among the Easter egg makers it considers friendly are Darrell Lea and Ferrero Rocher. While I'm skeptical of any so-called Frankenfoods, I'm rather conflicted now that I've seen the Cadbury Easter Egg Delight. It's the Russian nesting doll of candy – an outer egg encases an inner one, which is in turn filled with individual chocolates. I think I'll take my chances!
