These chocolates were sent to the War Front for our troops during the Anglo Boer War. They were meant to bring comfort and to let our troops know that HM Queen Victoria was thinking of their welfare and that they were being prayed for at home. About 40 000 chocolate packages were produced by Cadbury, fry and Rowntree for the War Front.
