126-year-old Cadbury bar set to fetch sweet sum

A bar of chocolate dating back to 1900 is set to be auctioned for ‘hundreds of pounds’ in Suffolk.

The Cadbury’s delight was given to a soldier fighting in the Second Boer War by Queen Victoria.

Put up for sale by a private collector, it has been described as "very rare, if un-appetising".
