Terry's Chocolate Orange is a chocolate product created by Terry's in 1932 at Terry's Chocolate Works in York, England.
The brand has changed ownership several times, and production was moved to Eastern Europe in 2005.
Since 2018, the Terry's Chocolate Orange has been produced in Strasbourg, France, by Carambar.
Chemist Joseph Terry joined a York sweets company in 1823, where he developed new lines of chocolate, candied peel, and marmalade.
In 1830 he became sole owner of the business and following his death it was eventually passed to his sons, including Joseph Jr. who managed the company.
In 1895 it became Joseph Terry and Sons Ltd.
, with directors including Joseph Jr. and his own son Thomas.
The company opened the Art Deco-style factory known as Terry's Chocolate Works in 1926, and began launching new products.
These included the Dessert Chocolate Apple （1926）, Terry's All Gold （1931） and the Chocolate Orange （1932）.
At the onset of World War II, confectionery production was immediately halted.
The factory was taken over by F. Hills and Sons of Manchester as a shadow factory to manufacture and repair aircraft propeller blades.
With the factory handed back to the company post-war, production was difficult due to continued rationing in the United Kingdom, and limited imports of raw cocoa.
In 1954, production of the chocolate apple was phased out in favour of increased production of the chocolate orange.
In 1979, Terry's launched the Chocolate Lemon, but it was withdrawn three years later.
