The Manufacturing Confectioners' Alliance was founded at York in 1901. It was incorporated as a limited company in 1912 and was further reorganised in 1919. With effect from February 1946 it was reconstituted under the name of the the Cocoa, Chocolate and Confectionery Alliance.
The Cocoa and Chocolate (War Time) Association and Sugar Confectionery (War Time) Association were set up in 1941 to implement supply and price controls in conjunction with the Ministry of Food.

With effect from 2 January 1987, the CCCA and CBA merged to form the Biscuit Cake Chocolate and Confectionery Alliance.
