AFTER EIGHT has been at the heart of the British nation since 1962 when it was invented to tap into a gap in the market. Rowntree's therefore decided to develop a wafer thin mint, and AFTER EIGHT was born. Since launch AFTER EIGHT has been proudly produced in West Yorkshire, initially in Castleford before moving to Halifax in 2013. Over the years, there have been several memorable advertising campaigns including, perhaps the most iconic, 'Dinner Party' campaign in 1999 featuring Stephen Fry, Niomi Campbell and Marilyn Monroe. Today, AFTER EIGHT continues to be a firm British favourite with over 280m individual sweets enjoyed every year in the UK.

Good Times Begin After Eight®

After Eight® was established in 1962 by Rowntree’s before becoming part of our Nestlé family in 1988

In 2012, Brian Sollit - the inventor of After Eight® - came out of retirement to help create a giant 3kg After Eight® mint chocolate in celebration of 50 years of our iconic treat.
