Chocolate lovers have expressed their joy after spotting a Cadbury 's chocolate bar that disappeared from supermarket shelves over two decades ago.
The nostalgic Top Deck Bar, which vanished from UK shops in the early 2000s, has now been spotted for sale at The Range.
The Cadbury's sweet treat, which launched in 1993, features two layers of chocolate, one white and the other classic Dairy Milk.
Fans of the '90s favourite have long been calling for the confectionery brand to reintroduce the bar, but their efforts have been fruitless until now.
The brand has re-released the sweet treat for a limited period in celebration of its 200th anniversary.
However, the chocolate bar is being sold for varying prices at different retailers across the country.
A 110g portion in Morrisons is being sold for £2.00 while Amazon are selling a slightly bigger bar, 180g, for £6.99.
Meanwhile, The Sun reported that the in-demand chocolate bar costs just 75p at FarmFoods.
Chocolate lovers have shared their delight regarding the chocolate bar's return on social media.
Under a YouTube video reviewing the bar, one excited fan wrote: 'It is my most favorite chocolate. I could not trust my eyes when I saw this in Great Britain last week.
'I always loved the moment when milk chocolate and white chocolate separated, first you taste the milk chocolate and then the separated top white one cracks while biting on it and then the white chocolate taste comes through.'
Another person wrote: 'Mmmmm I loved Top Deck back in the day, so I will definitely grab a bar when I do my weekly shop on Saturday.'
A third excited user added: 'Nice to see the Top Deck Cadbury bar return, it's been years.'
However, for some people the return of the '90s classic wasn't quite the same and fell short of the original.
One critic wrote: 'Top deck bars are nice but it's a joke how thin Cadbury's bars have gone. I know there's more pressing things happening in the world at the moment but personally I think it's a travesty.'
Another disappointed person added: 'It's just ok. Would I buy it again? No. Tastes pretty bland.'
It comes after Cadbury launched a new chocolate bar in the UK - which is bound to delight sweet toothed fans.
The new Twirl White Dipped became available across the UK from June 2, but shoppers have to be quick to get their hands on the treat, as it is limited edition.
Based on the popular Twirl, the new variant takes the original flaky finger, but instead of coating it in milk chocolate, it is coated in white chocolate.
While retailers are able to price the bar as they like, the recommended retail price for the snack is 99p.
The bar is comparable to Cadbury's discontinued Snow Flake, which disappeared from shelves 2008.
In June 2018, a decade after the Snowflake disappeared from shelves, a petition calling for its return racked up 4,000 signatures.
It originally hit the shelves back in August 2000, thanks to a rather notorious introduction at Anthea Turner's wedding to Grant Bovey where the couple were pictured chomping on the chocolate during their reception.
Despite the photo appearing in OK! along with a free bar of the chocolate, all three parties denied it was a sponsorship deal.
Fans shared their excitement about the return of the chocolate bar - but one said it tastes 'bland'
Three years later, the name was changed to Flake Snow, and in 2008 it was taken off the shelves for good.
Then 10 years later, John Malogony from London, launched a petition to bring it back, writing: 'In 2008 Cadbury broke hearts by discontinuing the Snow Flake (or Flake Snow). The bizarre decision still baffles people to this day and it needs to be rectified.'
Fellow sweet-toothed fans signed the petition, with one writing: 'One of my favorite childhood snacks. Ready to see this back in stores!' Another wrote: 'No more discontinued for all eternity.'
Fans of the Snowflake may be pleased to see the new Twirl White Dipper. While it is slightly different to its predecessor, it still has the elements of white chocolate with the classic texture of the Flake.
Talking about the launch, Katya Savelieva, brand manager for Twirl at Mondelez International, claimed people would not want to miss out on the treat.
She said: 'With smooth white chocolate surrounding our iconic milk chocolate swirls, the new Twirl White Dipped is an indulgence you won't want to miss – grab it as soon as you can and experience Twirl like never before!'
Cadbury also shared a Facebook post about the news - which prompted some comparisons with its discontinued predecessor.
