Roses, Heroes, Celebrations and Quality Street tubs at Tesco

The first Christmas chocolates of 2025 have already begun appearing in supermarkets across the UK. Cadbury Mini Snowballs chocolate bars were spotted in Asda last month, much to the excitement of shoppers. Advent calendars are also now available, with Cadbury releasing a brand-new Dairy Milk Lotus Biscoff version ahead of Christmas this year. Mars has also released its first Christmas-themed chocolates of 2025, with Gingerbread Flavour Maltesers Reindeer spotted on Morrisons' website (£1 for one or £2 for a 5-pack). Roses, Heroes, Celebrations and Quality Street chocolate tubs on sale 4 months before Christmas Roses, Heroes, Celebrations, and Quality Street tubs are arguably the most popular chocolates when it comes to festive treats. These popular Christmas chocolates have also now been spotted in supermarkets across the UK, including in Tesco and Morrisons. They are on sale for £7 per tub, £6 for Morrisons More members, or £5.95 for Tesco Clubcard holders. Both the early release date and price have sparked controversy among shoppers. One person, commenting on a post from Newfoodsuk on Facebook, said: "Don't know what's the bigger joke. The price or the fact it's 4 months early." Another added: "Be Easter eggs by the end of the month on display." A third shopper commented: "Stop it its only August." This person posted: "Wait £7 having a laugh!" While another added: "Not paying that." Discontinued UK chocolates and sweets Why do Christmas chocolates appear in UK stores so early? While some Brits are excited to see the return of Christmas chocolates in August, others have said it is too early for these festive treats to be hitting supermarket shelves. Mondelēz International (Cadbury owners) revealed it is not always the company's decision as to when its Christmas chocolate range is released in supermarkets. RECOMMENDED READING: It explained that retailers are free to choose when products appear on shelves, and "due to supply chain reasons, some products will be on shelves a little earlier". A Mondelēz International spokesperson said: "Most of our range will be available from August 2025, through to Christmas and as long as stocks last. "Due to supply chain reasons, some products ​will be on shelves a little earlier than that."

Clydebank pub Glenhead Tavern teases £290k transformation

The Glenhead Tavern, soon to be renamed The Duntocher, shut its doors in January 2025. However, the boozer is being undertaken by Heineken-owned Star Pubs and new licensee, Clydebank resident Brian Carnochan, who also runs The Grant Arms in Glasgow. The refurb is aiming to turn the shuttered venue into a 'top-notch, family-friendly' local which will dish up home-cooked food and specialise in sports and entertainment. Clydebank pub, Glenhead Tavern, teases £290k transformation. (Image: Supplied) Photos shared by the pub's new Facebook page give pub-goers an idea of what to expect when it reopens. Sharing the images on the social media platform, a spokesperson said: "The journey to remake the Glenhead Tavern is nearly complete. "The builders should be fully off-site this week. The new furniture has arrived. "We will begin the process of stocking everything and getting the place ready to open. "We will keep you updated as we go through this week." The revamp is expected to create 11 new jobs in the area. As part of the works, the outside of the pub will be painted a classic cream colour alongside a bright dark green. Previously, new licensee Brian Carnochan, said: 'I love seeing people having a good time. "I remember The Glenhead Tavern when it was a thriving local. Sadly, it's lost its way in recent years. "It's been much missed, and there's been a lot of concern for its future. "My aim is to restore it to its glory days when it was the place to go. The designs are spot-on, and it will look fantastic when the works are completed.'

"Brian's plans tick all the boxes; there will be lots of reasons to visit The Glenhead Tavern and something for everyone.'

They come in a range of three different scents SCENT-SATIONAL 'Autumn is in the air' Aldi shoppers are unable to resist new candles & there's one scent that is 'incredible' Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) ALDI shoppers have been racing to stores to get their hands on some new candles that have hit stores, including one scent that is "incredible". The budget retailer is already gearing customers up for a cosy autumn with this new collection. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 Autumn Candles from Aldi are available in three different scents Credit: Mrs T O'Neill, Facebook 2 The same scents are available as a Hurrican Candle Credit: Mrs T O'Neill, Facebook One enthusiastic shopper posted her find of the candles on social media, and wrote: "I caved. "I had to buy the fallen leaves smelt incredible!" She added: "Aldi smashing the autumn candles wow!" Aldi's autumn season is here From the Hotel Collection of candles at Aldi, the "Fallen Leaves" is on sale for either £19.99 as a Hurricane candle or a £3.99 Autumn Candle for those on a budget. This "incredible" candle is said to have scents of autumn apples, amber and musk. Included in this is also the "Pumkin Spice" scent, with warm cinnamon, caramel and clove. The higher end Hurricane candles from the range come in a 2.1 kg glass jar for a more sophisticated look, and can burn for approximately 140 hours. But those looking for a cheaper option can get either of these scents as simple Autumn Candles for £3.99, which come in a 300g pot. They contain a twin wick candle that burns for approximate 49 hours. At this size, there is also the choice of a "Vanilla Pumpkin" candle, which is scented with cinnamon, maple and nutmeg. All upcoming 'Aldi Finds' in the middle aisle next week – including portable chargers, power toothbrushes & dryer balls Both the Hurricane and Autumn candle version are said to "create a beautiful ambience", and are at Aldi stores whilst stocks last. Brits are gearing up for the cosy season The post on Facebook raving about the new candle range from Aldi received a number of reactions, comments and likes. One user responded: "Oh no... Now I am going to have to go and have a smell. "I'm a sucker for an autumn candle." Another added: "Same i bought the autumn leaves. "Saving them until September." A third wrote: "Aldi autumn collection is lovely and pumpkin is my favourite scent I began melting my own last night." Do the Aldi's candles really smell good? Fabulous Associate Editor, Rebecca Miller, popped into store to pick up a few! The Hurricane Candle might set you back £20 but it's huge and makes a brilliant centrepiece on a table, or perfect for filling large spaces with incredible fragrance. I particularly lovely Fallen Leaves, but Pumpkin Spice was irresistible too. What's more, they look gorgeous too. The Autumn Jar Candle could be mistaken for a Yankee Candle, but not when you look at the price - only £2.99 for a 510g jar! It comes in three fragrances: Pecan Waffle, Acorn Oak and Apple Orchard. Personally, Pecan Waffle was a little too sweet for my likening, whilst Acorn Oak was musky and heavy. The Textured Pumpkin Candles, £4.99, caught my eye down the Middle Aisle for their cute decorative pot. Coming in the same fragrances as the Autumn Jar Candle, the pots can be used after the candle has run out - making it a cute decor piece for autumn. More autumn favourites This latest collection of Autumn candles comes after the bargain retailer also released some cosy Halloween buys for the season. Included in this is a £4.99 Pumpkin Candle and some Wooden Lid Autumn Reed Diffuser priced at £3.99. They became available as part of Aldi's Specialbuys from August 17.
