LONDON, Feb 25 (Reuters) - British confectionery group Cadbury Plc (CBRY.L) took a relatively upbeat view on Wednesday on demand for its products ranging from Dairy Milk chocolate to Trident gum, helping boost its shares more than 4 percent.

After meeting forecasts with a 30 percent rise in 2008 pretax profit, the maker of Halls cough drops said it expected sales to grow towards the lower end of its medium-term 4 to 6 percent target this year, enough to reassure jittery investors.

Chief Executive Todd Stitzer said he was "confident but realistic" looking into 2009 as other consumer goods companies around the world were forecasting lower growth this year.
