Rolo Chocolate Patent

Did you know that Rolo šŸ« was once patented?

The patent didn’t cover the frustoconical shape of the chocolate or the creamy toffee encapsulated therein. Nevertheless, Rolo proudly stamped each roll ā€œPat. No. 503358ā€.

So, what did they patent? …

ā€œChocolate wrapped in foil and a paper sleeveā€ 😯

Sometimes no-one really cares what the patent covers. It’s just great for marketing.
