Shoppers have spotted a quality street toffee penny dessert
2
The dessert has returned to shelves after five years
But now, Iceland has brought it back.
The Quality Street Smooth & Creamy Toffee Penny Dessert inspired by the iconic golden-wrapped sweet has returned, sparking a frenzy among fans who feared it was gone forever.
One excited foodie took to Facebook to share the good news, posting: 'Closer look at Quality Street Toffee Penny Desserts from Iceland, they're smooth and creamy, perfect if you love toffee penny sweets.'
Fans flooded the comments with excitement.
One said: 'OMG they used to have these YEARS ago at Asda and I was devastated when they stopped!! Please don't be different now.'
Another added: 'So glad this is back!'.
While others said they 'need to find some' and 'It just looks so good.'
The puddings are a part of Nestlé's range of chocolate bar-inspired desserts, including Rolo and Milkybar.
They are said to be rich, creamy and full of toffee flavour, just like the chewy favourite from the iconic tin.
A pack of four will set you back £2.80 or just £2 if you grab them as part of a multibuy offer.
We've outdone ourselves with this one' say Cadbury Ireland as they reveal new limited edition bar 'coming soon
But if you're hoping to grab a pot, don't hang about.
We couldn't find them on sale anywhere else, so your best bet is to head to your nearest Iceland store.
They're also available online through Iceland's website, with home delivery if you fancy skipping the queues.
It's a sweet treat for anyone who's been craving that classic toffee penny taste and just in time for summer snack cravings.
The Sun has asked Quality Street if the snack is now back for good.
New chocolate
Its comes as Aldi announced the launch of its own version of the wildly popular Dubai-style chocolate bar.
The indulgent treat features layers of rich pistachio cream and crunchy kadayif pastry, all encased in smooth milk chocolate.
The luxurious chocolate bar will be hitting UK shelves later this month, retailing at £3.99.
Meanwhile, just last week shoppers discovered a brand new kinder bar as part of Tesco's meal deal offer.
The new snack features a crispy wafer layered with smooth milky and cocoa-hazelnut creams, wrapped in milk chocolate and topped with biscuit crumbs.
It's quickly becoming a fan favourite, thanks to its indulgent flavour and affordable price.
Elsewhere, chocoholics spotted a rare Cadbury treat from overseas on B&M shelves.
The 5 Star Mini Treats - a caramel-packed favourite usually found in far-flung places like India, Brazil and South Africa – are now being sold for just £2 in UK stores.

Sainsbury's change may eventually mark end of an era for shoppers
A pilot is being trialled at a small number of stores as Sainsbury's begins using a system Asda, Co-op, Morrisons and Waitrose are also employing Sainsbury's shoppers could be starting to see the end of an era for a classic supermarket symbol. The retailer is experimenting with new electronic labels to make it easier to change the price. The supermarket chain has reportedly installed the technology in some of its larger stores on items such as beers, wines, spirits and health products in a new trial. Electronic shelf-edge labels allow staff to remotely update prices via computer, eliminating the need to manually replace traditional paper tickets. This also paves the way for dynamic pricing, where prices can fluctuate at the last minute when demand spikes, a strategy seen in apps like Uber. Sainsbury's teamed up with specialist fixtures firm Harrison Retail to create the shelf fixings where the devices will be installed. It was understood that the Witney branch in Oxfordshire was among the first to test the new labels. "We are trialling electronic shelf-edge labels in a small number of our stores," a Sainsbury's spokesperson confirmed to The Grocer. When pressed by the Mirror for more details about the rollout, the chain stated there was "nothing further" to add to what had already been reported. Sainsbury's has become the latest addition to a growing list of retailers trialling electronic shelf-edge labels, joining the ranks of Asda, Waitrose, and Morrisons. This development follows closely on the heels of the Co-op's announcement to swap traditional paper shelf tickets for digital ones across all its branches by the end of 2026, with 1,500 stores set to adopt the new technology by the end of this year. Steven Logue, the Co-op's head of operations, said: "The electronic labels have the potential to enhance product information and transparency, avoid paper waste, and make everyday tasks like picking online orders easier – improving ways of working, supporting our growth ambitions and enhancing the shopping experience for our members and customers." READ MORE: Blackbird crisis: UK residents with gardens urged to take action amid rising Usutu virus cases READ MORE: 'I started turning my driveway into a garden - then a neighbour came round' Lidl also revealed plans to introduce electronic shelf-edge labels last year, following a successful pilot in 35 stores. The budget-friendly retailer claimed that implementing this system would lead to significant environmental benefits, including saving over "206 tonnes of carbon annually through paper and packaging reductions, while ink usage will also be drastically minimised". What are electronic shelf-edge labels? Electronic shelf-edge labels are tags that display product prices digitally and enable price changes to be made remotely from a separate location. According to tech specialists the Barcode Warehouse, the devices are "typically connected via wireless networks, allowing for instantaneous price changes and information updates from a central database or control system". The technology was pioneered in the 1990s and has since been embraced by retailers across Europe and North America. However, it hasn't quite taken off in the UK market, with Tesco halting a complete rollout in 2017 because it claimed "there was nothing new to say" about the technology. Nevertheless, the Barcode Warehouse says shoppers are the real winners when it comes to electronic labels. Its website states: "With real-time price updates, customers can trust that the prices they see are accurate and up-to-date, reducing confusion and improving satisfaction. "Additionally, [they] can display detailed product information, helping customers make informed purchasing decisions."

Gtech knocks £70 off 'lightweight' cordless hedge trimmer with 'plenty of power'
Gtech is offering a hefty discount of over 30% on its cordless hedge trimmer that users are saying makes gardening tasks 'effortless'. The Gtech LHT50 Lightweight Hedge Trimmer can now be purchased for £149.99, down from £219.99, by using the discount code BX64. This nifty saving of £70 is available until July 31, making it perfect timing for Brits wanting to spruce up their gardens in time for summer. It allows them to maintain a well-groomed garden without it feeling like hard work, as the cordless LHT50 is touted as Gtech's 'most effortless trimmer'. It's designed for those fed up with battling with cables, heavy equipment and step ladders. It's described as being 'super light' and 'surprisingly powerful', boasting the same motor as the original model but a third lighter at 2.14kg. The tool can reach up to 10ft and has seven adjustable head positions, with a 140 degree rotating blade enabling easier sculpting of every part of a hedge from the top, sides and base. The trimmer features an 'ultra-sharp' 315mm carbon steel blade capable of cutting even thicker hedges up to 14mm, while a safety switch can help prevent any unfortunate accidents. This Gtech hedge trimmer boasts a cable-free design, yet it can operate for up to 60 minutes on a single charge of its detachable battery pack. The handy LED display indicates the remaining power, ensuring you're never left stranded, as reported by the Mirror. The LHT50 trimmer is easily portable around any outdoor space, thanks to the included safety harness. This combined with an ergonomic design provides comfort during use, even for extended periods. For gardeners tackling more extensive hedge work, the new Bosch Advanced Electric Hedge Trimmer, priced at £190 at Argos, can cut thicker branches up to 34mm, although it is not extendable. A more affordable option is the £170.99 Ryobi 18V ONE+ HP Cordless Hedge Trimmer; however, the battery and charger are not included and must be purchased separately. The Gtech LHT50 Lightweight Hedge Trimmer has garnered an impressive 4.6-star rating from 838 reviews, with 777 of those being four or five stars. Buyers have praised it as 'easy to use' and 'perfect for any age group'. One satisfied customer commented: "This is truly a lightweight hedge trimmer but with a heavy weight cutting action. I needed a lightweight trimmer to keep my daughter's hedge under control and the last one I used was very good but really hurt my back and arms. We had the hedge reduced in height but I found I still required a longer reach to cut the hedge as the width was still pretty large. This certainly fits the bill." Someone else wrote: "This lightweight hedge trimmer is perfect for any age group or those who have difficulty handling a heavier model. No awkward cables to get in the way or accidentally cut through so it is much safer than one with an electric cable. The battery charges easily and gives plenty of power to cut even a long hedge. Also, as it extends, often no ladder is required." Another user acknowledged some limitations of the cordless hedge trimmer, but overall rated it highly, saying: "Perfect for small jobs for most people. Cannot cut thick stems but does a good job. Very light to use and good battery life." One five-star review highlighted the user-friendliness for older gardeners: "This lightweight hedge trimmer is easy to use and handle. I'm in my 70s and had no problem using it at full stretch." "Fantastic, highly recommend this product especially if your priority is lightness," someone else penned. "I needed a hedge trimmer to replace a very heavy pole trimmer that is light yet could tackle a long holly hedge and a separate Leylandii hedge. This product is brilliant – very light but cut both hedges excellently. It also had a good charge life with two lights showing after one hour of use."
