One eagle-eyed shopper shared the find on Facebook, posting: 'Cadbury Caramel mudcake spotted at B&M.'
Others were quick to respond, with one user writing: 'I must try it ASAP' and another adding: 'I hope it's still there when I go.'
Several tagged their friends to spread the word.
The treat is part of B&M's collection of imported Aussie snacks and is already making waves online.
Instagram food page @treatsinstore posted: 'OUT NOW Cadbury Dairy Milk Caramel Mudcake (Australia) £2.99.
"Available in the UK at @bm_stores.'
The bar features Cadbury's signature Dairy Milk chocolate with a layer of caramelised white chocolate, a gooey caramel-flavoured crème centre and crunchy chocolate biscuit bits, inspired by the classic Australian caramel mudcake.
Shoppers are loving it. One commented: 'Looks so good.'
Another said: 'I bought two of them for £7 from an online store!'
A third added: 'These are so nice.'
But be warned, the bar is exclusive to B&M and only sold in-store, so there's no option to buy online.
The Caramel Mudcake bar doesn't appear to be stocked anywhere else in the UK, making it one of the rarest Cadbury imports around at the moment.
We've outdone ourselves with this one' say Cadbury Ireland as they reveal new limited edition bar 'coming soon
It follows the hype earlier this year when B&M released Dairy Milk Rounds — another Aussie favourite.
Shoppers were equally excited, flooding social media with comments like 'Love those' and 'Yes please… yummy.'
The Sun has contacted Cadbury to confirm whether the Caramel Mudcake bar will stay exclusive to B&M.
Compare Prices
As always, it's worth checking comparison sites like Trolley.co.uk or PriceSpy.co.uk before splashing out on imported goodies. Sometimes online sweet shops offer better deals, but watch out for extra delivery costs.
How to save money on chocolate
We all love a bit of chocolate from now and then, but you don't have to break the bank buying your favourite bar.
Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how to cut costs...
Go own brand - if you're not too fussed about flavour and just want to supplant your chocolate cravings, you'll save by going for the supermarket's own brand bars.
Shop around - if you've spotted your favourite variety at the supermarket, make sure you check if it's cheaper elsewhere.
Websites like Trolley.co.uk let you compare prices on products across all the major chains to see if you're getting the best deal.
Look out for yellow stickers - supermarket staff put yellow, and sometimes orange and red, stickers on to products to show they've been reduced.
They usually do this if the product is coming to the end of its best-before date or the packaging is slightly damaged.
Buy bigger bars - most of the time, but not always, chocolate is cheaper per 100g the larger the bar.
So if you've got the appetite, and you were going to buy a hefty amount of chocolate anyway, you might as well go bigger.
Other rare and limited-edition chocolate bars spotted in UK bargain stores include the Cadbury Dairy Milk Neapolitan from Australia, blending strawberry crème, white chocolate and classic Dairy Milk in one bar, and the KitKat Chunky Cookie Dough, a twist on the original with a soft cookie dough centre.
Reese's White Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups, imported from the US, have also made appearances at B&M, while Galaxy Fusions Dark Chocolate with Raspberry Meringue offers a more sophisticated flavour found in major supermarkets and occasionally at a discount.
The Cadbury Snack Sandwich, usually sold in Ireland, has also surfaced online and in selected UK stores, and the Toblerone Orange Twist, typically found in airport duty-free shops, has created a stir among fans.
Milka Oreo Sandwich bars, combining smooth Milka chocolate and crunchy Oreo biscuits, are another hit, regularly popping up in Poundland and B&M.
How to compare prices to get the best deal
JUST because something is on offer, or is part of a sale, it doesn't mean it's always a good deal.
There are plenty of comparison websites out there that'll check prices for you - so don't be left paying more than you have to.
Most of them work by comparing the prices across hundreds of retailers.
Here are some that we recommend: Google Shopping is a tool that lets users search for and compare prices for products across the web. Simply type in keywords, or a product number, to bring up search results.
Price Spy logs the history of how much something costs from over 3,000 different retailers, including Argos, Amazon, eBay and the supermarkets. Once you select an individual product you can quickly compare which stores have the best price and which have it in stock.
Idealo is another website that lets you compare prices between retailers. All shoppers need to do is search for the item they need and the website will rank them from the cheapest to the most expensive one.
CamelCamelCamel only works on goods being sold on Amazon. To use it, type in the URL of the product you want to check the price of.
Cadbury summer finds
The Caramel Mudcake launch comes just days after Cadbury unveiled its new Dairy Milk Summer Edition bars and the Iced Latte flavour – both wrapped in cold-activated packaging that transforms in the fridge.
Earlier this month, fans also spotted Dairy Milk Balls in stores, with many comparing them to the nostalgic Cadbury Tasters from the '90s.
Just a few weeks ago the chocolate giant rolled out its limited-edition Twirl White Dipped bar, combining flaky Twirl layers with silky white chocolate.
From iced latte Twirls to chocolate-coffee collabs with Kenco, it looks like summer 2025 is shaping up to be a choc-filled paradise for sweet-toothed Brits.

Inside Coldplay kiss cam couple's 'affair' and their marriages now

The Coldplay kiss cam scandal has sent shockwaves around the world - and brought the two families of the CEO and the HR chief involved in the scandal into the spotlight The world has been captivated by the drama unfolding between now-former Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and the company's Head of HR, Kristen Cabot, after the pair were caught getting cosy on camera at a Coldplay concert. ‌ Mr Byron and his HR Chief, Ms Cabot, were spotted embracing each other at the band's gig in Boston, Massachusetts in a clip that has since gone viral across the globe. ‌ The pair, who are married but not to each other, were left red-faced after the camera pointed at them during the gig - and their reaction went viral on social media. In the video, Mr Byron can be seen quickly moving out of sight while Ms Cabot covers her face and turns around. ‌ Their reaction prompted Coldplay singer Chris Martin to joke that they were either "having an affair or just very shy". Both Astronomer employees were put on leave following the footage circulating online, with Mr Byron later resigning, and the company saying its standards had not been met. The scandal has rocked the lives of Mr Byron and Ms Cabot, but the real victims are their respective partners, Megan Kerrigan and Andrew Cabot, who appeared to be living the American dream in huge suburban homes. Coldplay kiss cam scandal: CEO's wife 'hiding' at $2.4m mansion 100 miles from marital home Davinia Taylor furiously denies affair after being mistaken for woman in Coldplay video ‌ Mr Byron is married to Megan, 50, who works in the education sector. The couple shares two children. Ms Kerrigan had been living what appeared to be a picture-perfect life with Mr Byron and their children. ‌ On Facebook, she had shared happy family memories, including a smiling group photo from a hiking trip, with the family dressed in caps and hugging by a creek, and another from a graduation, where Mr Byron and his two sons wore suits, with Ms Kerrigan in a dress and one of the sons in a graduation gown and mortarboard. That graduation photo was even her Facebook cover image - until recently. Ms Kerrigan first removed 'Byron' from her name, then deleted her entire Facebook profile on Thursday, wiping all the photos and memories she had once shared publicly. Now, Ms Kerrigan is reportedly at the family's $2.4million Maine mansion while holding crisis talks over the future of their marriage. ‌ She is said to be at their luxury property in Kennebunk, 106 miles away from their $1.4million marital home in Northborough, Massachusetts, surrounded by loved ones in the wake of her husband's indiscretion. Meanwhile, Kristin Cabot had recently settled into a life of luxury with her husband, Andrew Cabot, the CEO of a Massachusetts-based spirits company, Privateer Rum. Fewer than five months ago, the couple purchased a $2.2million seaside home in Rye, New Hampshire. ‌ Property records also show that Ms Cabot - formerly Kristin Stanek - was married at the time she sold a $1.8million home in Watertown, Massachusetts, earlier this year. Records indicate that the couple has owned another property in Rye since at least 2023. Mr Cabot's company celebrates his lineage, tracing his roots back to the original Andrew Cabot (1750–1791), a merchant, rum distiller, and privateer during the American Revolution. Public documents confirm Mr Cabot has been married at least twice before. ‌ A photo posted in April 2023 showed Mr and Ms Cabot looking loved-up at a birthday party. In the same post, Ms Cabot was seen wearing a blingy wedding ring - a detail noticeably absent during her recent cosy Coldplay concert date with Mr Byron. Ms Cabot had been listed as an advisory board member for her husband's company since 2020, according to her now-deleted LinkedIn profile. ‌ The kiss cam scandal also sent shockwaves through the tech world. Mr Byron had been the CEO of Astronomer, a fast-growing company in the data infrastructure space, recently valued at over $1 billion. In May, Astronomer secured $93million in Series D funding, backed by major firms including Bain Capital, Salesforce, Venrock, and Meritech. But the American dream quickly unravelled for both families and the company. On Saturday, Astronomer announced Mr Byron's resignation in a formal statement. ‌ "As stated previously, Astronomer is committed to the values and culture that have guided us since our founding. Our leaders are expected to set the standard in both conduct and accountability, and recently, that standard was not met. Andy Byron has tendered his resignation, and the Board of Directors has accepted." LinkedIn profiles revealed that Ms Cabot joined the business nine months ago in her role as Chief People Officer - with Byron posting glowing praise about his new team member at the time. The tech chief lauded her "exceptional leadership and deep expertise in talent management, employee engagement, and scaling people strategies" which he stated would "be critical as we continue our rapid trajectory". At time of writing, neither Andy Byron nor Kristin Cabot have issued a public statement regarding the incident.

M&S shoppers divided over 'strange' £3 fruit that's back in store

The 'rare' cross fuses two unlikely items together - with some people saying it was 'disgusting' and others claiming it was 'delicious' Marks and Spencer shoppers might have spotted a rare fruit fusion in the supermarket this week when shopping, which sparked a heated debate between fans. The juicy fruit mixes two summer staples together into one item that's a true trick for the tastebuds. ‌ The curious item was spotted in an M&S Food Hall by Facebook user Daniel, who runs the Snack Reviews group. He posted: "New from M&S, the Limelon. Looks like a melon and tastes like a lime had a tropical holiday." ‌ After making waves last summer (2024), the unique melon has made a comeback in 2025. Priced at £3, the fruit is available for purchase in-store or can be added to online baskets via Ocado. ‌ M&S described the fruit as "deliciously refreshing and tangy" with "a zesty touch of lime", suggesting it's "perfect for snacking on or serving with yoghurt for breakfast". Opinions were split on the hybrid fruit. While some shoppers described the Limelon as "delicious" and celebrated its return, others were less enthusiastic, dismissing the creation as "vile", reports the Mirror. ‌ One fan of the fruit said: "Would love this. I eat lemons and limes like they are oranges!" Another was curious, writing: "I'm intrigued!" A third shared: "I love them! I got a pack of two from Costco a couple of weeks ago for £5.99 but they were tiny! Need to get to M&S!" But, a critic claimed: "They are disgusting!" And another offered a mixed review, sharing: "Tried this in Costco once - sour like a lime but tastes like a melon. Very strange, one bite was enough!" M&S has been known for introducing quirky fruits like the Limelon to the UK. It follows on from past creations such as the Papple (a pear-apple hybrid) and white strawberries with a pineapple tang. What is a limelon and what does it taste like? The limelon is a small, round fruit with a smooth and glossy skin that has a light green flesh with tan seeds. These melons are currently grown in Murcia, Spain, but efforts are under way in other nations like Israel and Costa Rica to enable year-round availability. Speciality Produce has praised the limelon's "complex flavour". They describe the taste sensation awaiting consumers as "sweet, floral, and subtly fruity" at first. The spokesperson added: "In combination with the sweet taste, the melon's flavour also encompasses acidic, zesty, and tangy notes with lime undertones, creating a balanced, bright flavour profile."

Which lips do YOU think are most attractive? Scientists reveal the most desirable pout - so, do you agree?

From Angelina Jolie to Megan Fox, many celebrities are known for their luscious lips. But what exactly does the perfect pout look like? A new study has revealed the answer - and it's bad news for fans of lip fillers. Scientists from the American University of Beirut showed 200 people AI-generated pictures of a woman, whose lips had been adjusted in various ways. An analysis of their preferences revealed that the perfect pout features an upper-to-lower lip ratio (U/L) of between 0.618:1 and 1:1. Meanwhile, the most highly rated lips had an upper lip height of 25 per cent of hemi-lip width. According to the researchers, this suggests that overinflation of lips is regarded as 'unaesthetic and unattractive.' 'Though social media have an influence on perception of beauty, data provided by the survey confirm that golden standards of aesthetics remain constant and that exaggerated requests of some patients may not be attributed solely to social media influence but probably to social media in combination with additional personal predisposing factors,' the researchers said. While cosmetic procedures like Botox and lip fillers were once seen as taboo, they're becoming increasingly popular around the world. In fact, a poll carried out by VICE UK found that over half of Brits now see these procedures as comparable to getting a haircut or a manicure. However, until now, how, or if, this surge in popularity has affected beauty standards has remained unclear. 'Many patients at present bring with them pictures of celebrities and demonstrate the interest of not only becoming beautiful but also looking similar to the 'Hollywood star' prototypes, expecting outcomes that are out of proportion with established standards of beauty,' the researchers explained in their study, published in Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery-Global Open. 'Unfortunately, overtreated patients and overzealous practitioners are becoming very common.' To get to the bottom of it, the researchers used AI to create a picture of a white female face, whose lips had been adjusted for both U/L lip ratios and fullness. A total of 200 participants were then asked to rate the lips from the most to the least aesthetic and attractive. In the first set of images, which had been adjusted for fullness, lips were rated most highly when there was an an upper lip height of 25 per cent of hemi-lip width. In the first set of images (left), which had been adjusted for fullness, lips were rated most highly when there was an an upper lip height of 25 per cent of hemi-lip width. In the second set of images (right), which had been adjusted for U/L lip ratio, the lips with a U/L of between 0.618:1 and 1:1 were rated as most attractive In the second set of images, meanwhile, which had been adjusted for U/L lip ratio, the lips with a U/L of between 0.618:1 and 1:1 were rated as most attractive. This will come as good news for stars like Angelina Jolie, Anne Hathaway, and Scarlett Johansson, who are known for their full, yet balanced lips. In contrast, the overfilled lips were rated as the least attractive. This may disappoint stars with plumped-up lips, including Charlotte Crosby, Tulisa, and Lisa Rinna. The researchers hope the findings will encourage people considering lip fillers to opt for more natural looks. 'Because full lips have historically been a major component of overall attractiveness and a youthful appearance, lip augmentation with soft tissue fillers has become one of the most popular and commonly performed minimally invasive procedures,' the team concluded. 'Despite variable lip shape preferences based on ethnicity, country of residence, and profession, and regardless of the influence of other facial features, an 'ideal lip' is characterized by lower and upper lip balance of subtle proportion bringing out the best frame for smile. 'Ideally, the objective of lip augmentation is to create smooth lips with adequate volume and natural appearance and not to overaugment.' HOW HAVE IDEAS ABOUT THE 'PERFECT' FEMALE BODY CHANGED? Perceptions of the ideal female body can be linked to representations of women in media, whether found in pop culture, fashion or even politics. These images of feminine attractiveness have changed significantly over the years. 1910 The Gibson Girl - An image produced by American graphic artist Charles Dana Gibson depicted the ideal female figure as tall and regal with an S-curve torso shape 1920 The Flapper - Cultural change sparked by the suffragette movement gave birth to short hair, knee length dresses and a more rambunctious, yet petite, view of female beauty 1950 The Hourglass - Voluptuous curves became important following the end of WWII, which also saw the creation of one of the most influential female bodies, Barbie 1960 The Twig - British cultural icon and model Twiggy brought forward an androgynous look in female ideals where small breasts and thinness were key
