Cadbury<\/b> and global creative agency, VCCP London<\/strong>,<\/span> launched the latest installment in the successful <\/span>\u2018Just Ask An Aussie\u2019 <\/span><\/i>campaign series. Designed to promote Caramilk, the much-loved chocolate newly developed for the UK, the latest activity sees Caramilk place a real life Australian and Caramilk mega fan on billboards across the country. This activity calls on the nation to \u2018<\/span>Just Ask An Aussie<\/span><\/i>\u2019 (quite literally) why Caramilk is the coveted chocolate bar that caused such a stir Down Under.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The latest campaign activity heroes an interactive OOH installation, playfully bringing together the traditional elements of OOH with a dynamic and innovative live element designed to capture and amplify the true spirit of Cadbury Caramilk. The <\/span>\u2018Ask an Aussie\u2019 <\/span><\/i>Australian will be live across three hero sites in the UK, premiering at Birmingham\u2019s Custard Factory on the 26th September, and further installations will go live in Manchester at Cross Street on the 28th and The Truman Brewery Dray Walk, London on the 30th September. <\/span><\/p>\n

\r\n With 138,000 Aussies living in the UK, what better spokesperson to launch Caramilk than the Aussies themselves? Jonny Parker, Executive Creative Director at VCCP London<\/cite> <\/blockquote>\r\n \r\n \t\t\t <\/div>\r\n \r\n

While the core campaign encourages Brits to ask an Aussie, not everyone has one in their phonebook, so the latest element offers up an Aussie that people can ask directly. Those who can\u2019t see the billboard in person but still want the chance to talk to the Aussie about Caramilk can ask away through an Instagram Q&A. It\u2019s even been revealed that the Caramilk megafan has asked to be partially paid in the currency of Caramilk chocolate bars. <\/span><\/p>\n

The campaign will also be supported by a media partnership with LADBible and Wildfire memes, led by Carat & The Story Lab, and a dedicated influencer campaign which will also launch on Sunday 26th September with comedians <\/span>Sideman<\/b>, <\/b>BashTheEntertainer<\/b> and <\/span>Star Holroyd<\/b>, coordinated by PR agency, Golin<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Until recently, Cadbury Caramilk was only available to buy Down Under and gained fame and a dedicated Aussie fanbase. Such was the demand for Caramilk that it was hoarded and even rationed by shops in Australia by chocolate lovers.<\/span><\/p>\n

Beatrice Berutti, Senior Brand Manager at Mondelez<\/b> says,<\/span>\u201cWe\u2019re super excited to be putting real Aussies on billboards to help spread the word of just how delicious the new Cadbury Caramilk bar is. We wanted to do something which naturally channelled the Cadbury Caramilk character, whilst standing out from other new product launches. We were committed to doing something a little bit different, albeit whacky to welcome Caramilk to British shelves, and we\u2019re super excited that our mad plan of pinning a real, live Aussie was pulled off. Go on \u2018Just Ask An Aussie\u2019 for yourself!\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Jonny Parker, Executive Creative Director at VCCP London <\/b>added: <\/span>\u201cAussies have loved Caramilk for years. They love it more than their cat, their phone, one even told us that they like it more than people. With 138,000 Aussies living in the UK, what better spokesperson to launch Caramilk than the Aussies themselves? We’ve worked with real-life Aussie megafans and put them on billboards up and down the country to give Brits the chance to ask them what the fuss is all about.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

\u2018Just Ask An Aussie\u2019<\/span><\/i> interactive billboards will run at Birmingham\u2019s Custard Factory on the 26th September, Manchester at Cross Street on the 28th and The Truman Brewery Dray Walk, London on the 30th September. Media has been planned and executed by Carat.<\/span><\/p>\n
