Huge UK supermarket adds discontinued Maltesers flavour to its meal deal after a DECADE off shelves
Sweet treat fans are scrambling to stock up after a savvy shopper posted the find on the popular Facebook group NewfoodsUK.
They wrote: "White Chocolate Maltesers now part of the meal deal options at Asda!"
The post racked up hundreds of likes and comments from chocolate fans eager to share their excitement.
One user wrote: "I'm glad they're back."
"Me wants," commented a second.
Maltesers' new white chocolate snacks are available at major retailers — but sweet lovers will need to act fast before they sell out.
Originally aimed at 'dieting women'
White Chocolate Maltesers were the white-chocolate version of Maltesers.
The key difference between them and the original was that, instead of being covered in milk chocolate, they were covered in a delicious white chocolate coating.
Maltesers are round balls of malted milk covered in chocolate.
They were launched in 1937 after being created by American Forrest Mars Sr.

Maltesers were first released in the UK and were originally aimed at "dieting women" as a "lighter" way to enjoy chocolate.
They have since become popular across Europe and in Canada, Australia and New Zealand.
Why and when were White Maltesers discontinued?
White Maltesers were discontinued in 2014.
They were pulled from shelves 11 years after they first launched in 2003.
White Maltesers were originally launched as a seasonal product but became so popular that they began being sold all year round.
It has been reported that they were discontinued due to low sales but many chocolate lovers were devastated to see the end of their run.
In 2017 a petition was started to bring the sweet treat back.
The petition's creator had hoped to garner 2,500 signatures of support but as of March 2024 only 1,637 had signed the campaign.

Maura Higgins displays her toned physique in a summer minidress as she gives followers a glimpse of her lavish lifestyle
displays her toned physique in a summer minidress as she shared a glimpse of her lavish lifestyle in an Instagram post on Sunday. The former Love Island star, 34, stunned as she enjoyed a picnic in the sun while wearing an ivory and pink milkmaids dress. In a second image she looked happier than ever after pulling on a pair of thigh-skimming shorts and fedora hat for a bike ride. In another snap, Maura enjoyed a mint ice cream which posed with while wearing a ruffled dress in a similar colour. She also shared a glimpse of herself in more casual attire, including a bright pink T-shirt dress branded with the Love Island logo. The brunette later posed for a fun snap with her pals as they made funny faces for a photo collage. Alongside the snaps, she wrote: 'Previously on……' The post comes after Maura moved into her £1.25million five-bedroom 'dream house' in Essex. The TV personality, who has amassed an estimated £3.2million fortune from her TV appearances, took to Instagram earlier this month to share the news that she had finally moved in. Sharing the news she posted a picture of stunning black French doors looking on to a garden, with a huge bouquet of glowers in a vase, Ferrari sparkling wine and a Diptyque candle. 'After the busiest few months.... she's finally in,' the former Love Island star captioned the snap. Sharing another snap of the kitchen featuring her pal, celebrity hairdresser Carl Bembridge, she wrote: 'No chairs yet but he always finds something to sit on.' As a young woman in rural Ireland, Maura's future was set - stay in the town, marry her teenage boyfriend and open up a hair salon. 'But that's not what I wanted. That was not my dream. That was my father's and boyfriend's dream. I wanted to do more,' Maura previously defiantly declared. Maura also shared a glimpse of her in more casual wear as she wore a bright pink T-shirt dress which was branded with the Love Island logo The brunette beauty also posed for a fun snap with her pals as they made funny faces for a photo collage And leave Ireland she did, going on to star in two ITV reality shows, Love Island and most recently I'm A Celebrity, as well as taking on presenting duties. In her next big move, the girl from remote County Longford purchased her huge house in Essex. Her riches have allowed the presenter to upgrade from her previous one-bedroom property in Essex to one with an en-suite master bedroom with four further rooms. Overjoyed, Maura shared to her Instagram followers a picture of her new kitchen with a chandelier and grey floors, which she bought in October, with the caption 'Bought my dream house'. An expansive kitchen, with an island, leads out past the dining area, out bi-folding doors to a large walled garden with a neat lawn. Maura's previous home was raided by three-masked men and so the Love Island star has ensured her new home was in a gated development which provides privacy and security.

The 35-year-old mum-of-two looked effortlessly cool in all black outfit - including an unzipped top, sports bra and tiny mini skirt. 7 7 Completing the look with white socks and trainers, Amy made sure her legs were on full display as she joined her trainer on the court. With her mum Julie looking after daughter Polly on the sidelines, Amy kept a stern look on her face as she concentrated on the game. Never taking off her sunglasses, Amy was seen darting around the court as she practiced her padel skills. Soon Amy was looking like a seasoned pro as she played. The star's outing comes after she was forced to hit back at critics of her new, slendered down figure. Amy revealed in April that she had lost two stone, and is since believed to have lost more. By May, critics started trolling her by saying she had gone "too far". The Towie star has largely avoided comments about her shrinking size, but shortly after accusations she had started taking medications like Ozempic to aid her weight loss, felt forced to speak out. Speaking to OK! magazine, she said: "People don't know what is going on behind closed doors. 'I'm going through so much at the minute that the weight has fallen off me." Amy Childs shows off huge new pool at £1.7m Essex mansion and strips off to black bikini after sparking concern with weight loss "I worry about my mum constantly. She's very emotional – she thinks she's going to have another heart attack," she added. Amy insisted that she "does eat" and denied taking weight loss injections, adding: "To be honest, I do feel better when I'm a bit heavier than I am at the moment. 'There's so much going on at the minute – it's the result of pure stress." Among those stresses appears to be issues around her planned wedding to Billy Delbosq, which has now been cancelled. who first postponed her nuptials following her engagement in 2023, has again pushed back plans due to "last minute changes", it is claimed. Sources told Closer Magazine: "Amy has had to cancel her wedding and she's absolutely gutted. "There was going to be a show around it, following the run-up to their big day, but they've had to make some last-minute changes based on what's going on in their lives." 7 7 7
