Toblerone owner sues British vegan chocolate brand over chunky shape

Chocolate maker Mondelēz International, owner of the Toblerone brand, has filed a lawsuit in the London High Court against British vegan chocolatier Catherine’s Originals. The claim alleges that the vegan brand’s rectangular, chunk‑shaped bars infringe on Toblerone’s trademark and constitute passing off. Catherine’s Originals has denied the allegations, stating its products are distinct in the market.
