Cavendish & Harvey: Tradition meets innovation
New products set standards in the hard candy market
Kaltenkirchen, December 2025 – For around 50 years, Cavendish & Harvey has been synonymous with exquisite confectionery specialities ‘Made in Germany’. The Northern-Germany based company combines traditional recipes with modern innovation and demonstrates year after year that the hard candy market is anything but stagnant.
Since 1977, the distinctive golden tins containing exquisite fruit candies in a striking style have been delighting consumers worldwide. But there is much more than nostalgia behind the iconic packaging: Cavendish & Harvey knows how to continuously develop its product range and translate current consumer trends into innovative products.
Annual product innovations instead of stagnation
While many competitors rely on tried-and-tested classics, Cavendish & Harvey, inspired by international trends and changing consumer demands, continuously launches new flavours and product concepts into the market. Whether fruity combinations with surprising flavours, sugar-free recipes or practical packaging solutions: Cavendish & Harvey proves year after year that creative impulses are also possible in the traditional hard candy segment. ‘Innovation is part of our DNA,’ emphasises Managing Director Frank Gemmrig. ‘We not only further develop existing classics, but also regularly create new taste experiences that keep our brand fresh and relevant.’
