# Made to Share (Cadbury · 2024)

## Insight
Cadbury's Dairy Milk bar has a segmented design that is universally recognisable — but the segments are never equal, and sharing chocolate always involves a negotiation. The insight: the act of deciding who gets which piece is itself an expression of relationships.

## Mechanic
An integrated campaign built around the physical design of the Cadbury bar — the segments — as a sharing mechanic. The campaign included customisable packaging, OOH that visualised the sharing decision, and social content that made the chocolate-sharing negotiation the content itself.

## Why it worked
P17 (design as idea): the product's existing physical design becomes the campaign's structural mechanic — the segments were always there, the campaign made them mean something specific. P09 (user as co-author): the personalisation mechanic and social content generation turned a purchase into a shareable moment. The campaign found creative territory that no other confectionery brand had access to because the bar's design is proprietary.

## Steal
Your product's physical design contains ideas that competitors cannot copy. Map every design element — shape, structure, portion — and ask what social or emotional behaviour each one enables that has never been amplified.
