Chocolate fans overjoyed as 'best' Maltesers return 11 years after being axed
The chocolate brand, owned by Mars Wrigley, has just confirmed that the white chocolate version of the iconic treat is making a comeback after 11 years.
First launched in 2003, White Chocolate Maltesers were a fan-favourite before being discontinued in 2014 and people have spent more than a decade begging for them to return.
And now the prayers of chocolate lovers across the nation are being answered, as the sweet treat will hit supermarket shelves once more next month.
For those who haven't had a chance to try them before, the sweets feature the classic crunchy centre that we all know and love, coated in a thin layer of white chocolate.
When they make their triumphant return, White Chocolate Maltesers will be available in treat bags, single bag and sharing bag formats from June 16.
You'll be able to find them in major supermarkets along with independent retailers too, so you won't have to go far to get your fix.
Prices for the products haven't yet been revealed, but retailers are usually able to set their own.
A spokesperson from Mars Wrigley said: 'We're delighted to bring Maltesers White Chocolate back for the passionate fans who have been anticipating their return for years! Maltesers is all about encouraging people to look on the light side of life and so definitely try them if you've not done so before.'
On social media, rumours of the product's return have been swirling since early May, with many sharing their joy over the news after it was teased by @johns_snackreviews. More Trending
An Instagram user named @holliexrobyn shared that the chocolates held sentimental value for her, saying: 'My uncle used to buy me these as he could only get them from shops near him. He passed in 2017 unexpectedly, these always make me think of him, so happy they're back.'
@greedysisterz_review_snacks branded them the 'best Maltesers' as @purplehairedholly said: 'They were top tier'.

These stunning NYC restaurants have been shortlisted for this year's Restaurant & Bar Design Awards
The Oscars of restaurant design are back—and New York has shown up dressed to kill. The annual Restaurant & Bar Design Awards, which spotlight the most jaw-dropping dining spaces around the globe, just revealed its 2025 shortlist and a handful of NYC spots made the cut. If you needed an excuse to eat somewhere pretty enough to make your Instagram followers jealous, consider this it. Brass, designed by Islyn Studio, is a love letter to glam nostalgia. With gleaming metallic surfaces, rich textures and a mood that feels part supper club, part glossy fever dream, it's no surprise it's up for multiple categories, including Standalone and Heritage Building. Translation: historic but make it chic. La Tête d'Or, Daniel Boulud's latest Midtown showpiece, is another strong contender. Velvet banquettes, an amber glow and a kitchen that doubles as an architectural centerpiece make it a visual feast before the steak even hits the table. The design has been recognized for both Lighting and In Another Space, but the 45-day-aged rib-eye might deserve an award of its own. The View, from Rockwell Group, is shortlisted in the Hotel category and practically cheats with its built-in asset: skyline vistas. Add in Rockwell's signature polish and you've got a dining room that reminds you why people put up with New York rent prices. Ken Fulk's Felix Roasting Co. has long been the city's most decadent caffeine fix, with marble counters, vintage-inspired fixtures and the kind of jewel-box interiors that make your flat white feel like a fashion accessory. The café nod proves that even your morning espresso deserves drama. The Otter, a hotel restaurant from Hannes Peer, is pure playfulness, combining bold colors, luxe finishes and splashy murals. Shortlisted across multiple categories, it proves that maximalism is alive and well downtown. And then there's Mission Ceviche, the first full-service restaurant from chef José Luis Chavez. Airy interiors, biophilic design touches, and South American flair landed it nominations in Standalone and Surface Interiors. Between the Nikkei ceviche and the moody-but-fresh aesthetic, it's basically a mini vacation on East 74th Street. They're not alone: Obvio, Clemente Bar, Twin Tails, Postcard and Crane Club also earned recognition this year, underscoring just how wide and varied New York's design talent runs, from inventive visual identities to hotel showpieces and intimate standalones.

Molly Rainford And Tyler West: A Complete Relationship Timeline
The Strictly curse has been broken! That's thanks to the news that Strictly stars Molly Rainford and Tyler West are engaged, three years after meeting on the show. West popped the question on a romantic trip to Mykonos, and shared an emotional video of the moment online. In the video, he says 'I don't know where to start – so I'm hoping you can continue making me the luckiest man on this Earth, like you do every single day,' before asking Molly to marry him - to which she says yes. In the caption on the video, he wrote 'Found our forever.' Here's everything you need to know about this Strictly romance success story.... Eastenders star Molly and Radio DJ Nick were both contestants on the 2022 series of Strictly Come Dancing. Molly succeeded on the show, making it to the final with professional dancer Carlos Gu, before the trophy went to Hamza Yassin and his partner Jowita Przystal. Tyler was partnered with pro Dianne Buswell, and the pair were booted out halfway through the contest. The pair actually started out as friends. Rainford told OK: 'Everyone thinks that we got together on the show, but we didn't. It kind of happened after but what's so lovely is that we kind of built a little friendship,' continuing 'I think because it stems from such a cool friendship into something more, that's what makes it so cool. He's a good boy. I'm very lucky.' Molly spoke to Fabulous magazine about her budding romancer with Tyler, revealing they grew close near the end of the tour. 'I suppose it developed towards the end of the tour because we'd spent so much time together and we were really good friends,' she told the outlet. 'The tour was so much fun. We were just doing everything together and it just progressed from there really.' She also said it was Tyler who asked her out once the tour had finished. 'He was like, 'Do you think when we get back, we could go on a date?' and I was like, 'Yeah, alright!' I was totally up for it,' she said. 'Everyone on Strictly was so excited for us. They kind of wanted it to happen [all the way through the show] and we were like, "No, we are trying to be professional."' In fact, Tyler even pinpointed the moment he knew it was love with Molly, which was on the Newcastle tour. 'The minute I'd leave Molly, I'd miss her,' he said. 'When you both feel it, you just know,' said Molly. In January 2024, Molly and Nic took the step of moving in together. 'We are good and going strong and are actually moving in together - we're just going through, you know dining tables and sofas and all that kind of stuff, it's exciting,' she told Mail Online at the time. Tyler also said: 'Molly's turned into a whole interior designer so I'm just taking a complete back seat!' Wedding bells are on the cards after Tyler popped the question on a trip to Mykonos at sunset, with the couple sharing the adorable moment in a video on Instagram. Naturally, friends were quick to offer their congratulations to the couple. Strictly: It Takes Two host Fleur East called it 'the most beautiful proposal' while JLS star Marvin Humes penned 'Wow... this is a lot. Couldn't be happier for two incredible people who are just perfect for eachother... I'm SO happy!!! Ah man this has made my night... congrats family...'

Forget The LBD: Zara's Lemon Mini Dress Is The Newest It-Dress This Year
@Instagram/@dilekstudzinski What's your favourite summer drink? An Aperol Spritz on a rooftop? A glass of rosé by the pool? Maybe even an iced matcha? For me, nothing says summer quite like Limoncello. It's a drink that instantly transports me to the south of Italy, where my only worry is when I'm next reapplying sun cream and what kind of pizza I'm having for lunch. However, that exact shade, lemon yellow, has slipped straight from our drinks and into our wardrobes this summer, emerging as the vibrant sister of the butter yellow trend we've all been obsessing over. Where butter yellow initially delivered a mellow, almost sorbet-like subtlety, Limoncello (or lemon) yellow arrives with an unmatched energy. It's in this lemon hue that Zara's channelled into its latest mini dress, the Short Voluminous Dress - a design that epitomises summer dressing at its most elevated, and is practically made to wear to post-swim aperitivos. Daydreams of Italy aside, Zara's latest yellow mini dress packs quite the punch, with several chic details that elevate it far beyond its under-£40 price tag. It's the voluminous hem and cinched waist that first caught my eye, as it adds a little bit of interest to the dress without being too daring, while the round neck is perfect for pairing with a statement gold necklace. ©Instagram/@dilekstudzinski Zara, ZW Collection Short Voluminous Dress in Light Yellow Zara's Short Voluminous Dress, part of its ZW Collection, has all the features to elevate it beyond your average mini. The modest round neck is perfect for pairing with a chunky colourful necklace, while the voluminous hem and cinched waist make for a chic (and flattering) silhouette. Lemon yellow may seem like a more daring colour when compared to butter yellow, but actually, the bright colour means that it does most of the styling legwork for you. Plus, when Hailey Bieber says that butter yellow is 'played out', you do what she says, even if that means moving onto the next best thing. Style Zara's Short Voluminous Dress with a pair of white kitten heels and a matching white clutch for an evening spent exploring the nightlife Milan has to offer. Or, for days spent strolling in Positano, team the dress with ballet flats and a raffia tote bag (this Dragon Diffusion style has the ability to make any easy day outfit look infinitely more polished). ©Instagram/@nicolejackmckenzie Just as Limoncello is more than just a drink (it's a state of mind at this point), Zara's Short Voluminous Dress in a similar bright hue is more than just another summer outfit. It not only taps into the essence of dopamine dressing, but it's also proof that donning your favourite sunshine shade can tap into that ineffable holiday spirit (even if your suitcases are now back in the loft). It's the sartorial equivalent of Euro summer, and one which we'll be longing for when the autumnal months soon draw in. Zara, ZW Collection Short Voluminous Dress in Orange If you're more about Aperol Spritz orange compared to Limoncello yellow, Zara's Short Voluminous Dress is also available in a tangerine hue. With the same signature hourglass hem and round neck, finish the look with flat sandals and oversized sunglasses. Nobody's Child, Butter Yellow Brynn Mini Dress Nobody's Child also has a butter yellow mini dress with that same cinched detailing and length. With a sleeveless design, it's perfect for pairing with a sheer cardigan or lightweight knit as we head further into the transitional period. Reformation, Jessi Linen Dress Reformation's Jessi Linen Dress is one of its best-selling designs, probably because of its simple-but-not-boring look. Designed with a relaxed fit, the linen dress features a rounded and sleeveless neck. Damson Madder, Iris Mini Dress Damson Madder's bright yellow offering comes in the form of its Iris Mini Dress - a design that grabbed my attention with its sweet bow back detailing and all-over embroidery. Style with a pair of platform sandals and oval sunglasses.
