Discover our Brand Histories, revealing the decade-to-decade evolution of today’s most iconic brands including Cadbury’s Milk Tray, Bisto, HP Sauce, Ovaltine and many more.
By looking at case studies of specific brands over time, it is possible to examine how the packaging has changed in response to the needs and concerns of consumers, businesses and wider society. Little changes, which may go unnoticed at the time, become large changes over a number of years - you may be surprised by designs you haven’t seen for a long time!
Enjoy a nostalgic journey through 200 years of social change, culture and lifestyle by visiting our main collection, the Time Tunnel. Discover the Brand Histories in our Branding Hall, behind the café.
