In February 2023, singer Ed Sheeran visited New Zealand and mentioned on Instagram that he enjoyed the country’s chocolate. In response, Whittaker’s sent Sheeran a block of Creamy Milk labelled “Ed Block” and featuring Sheeran’s visage. Whittakers and Sheeran then joined together to auction off signed T-shirts and chocolate supplies in order to raise money for the victims of the floods that occurred during Auckland Anniversary Weekend in 2023.
