They are most frequently advertised with the classic slogan of "Say 'Thank You', with Cadbury Roses" in the UK and Australia, and "Thank you very much" on television advertisements. A memorable 1960s UK advertising campaign used the slogan 'Roses Grow On You' and included television advertisements presented by the comedian Norman Vaughan.
