Craving a Toffee Crisp? That just got a lot harder if you live in the U.S.
In settling a lawsuit with The Hershey Company, Let’s Buy British Imports (LBB) — the company responsible for sending U.K.-made Cadbury chocolate overseas — has agreed to halt shipments to the U.S.
Hershey owns the rights to make and sell any chocolate products with the Cadbury name in the U.S., and will still do so in many cases. Cadbury eggs will still be around, for example — but now they’ll taste slightly different because British-made Cadbury chocolate is produced under a different recipe (the first ingredient in U.K. Cadbury chocolate is milk, while the first in American-made Cadbury chocolate is sugar, according to the New York Times). LBB is also halting their imports of British-made Kit Kats, but the American-made version will still be around.

Because the deal was struck between The Hershey Company and LBB, Cadbury declined to comment.
