Enjoy moments of lightness

Aero launched in 1935 as the first ever bubbly chocolate, has floated its way into being one of the UK and Ireland's most-loved chocolates.

Since then, Aero's bubbles have drifted around the world. It's now enjoyed everywhere from Canada and Australia, to South Africa and Japan.

Aero is the ultimate chocolate to help you embrace a more bubbly outlook on life, and find joy in small moments. After all, what could be better than breaking off a piece of Aero and feeling the bubbles melt?
