Cadbury Tasters were launched in 1996 and axed in the mid-2000s.
Their round solid chocolate appearance looked similar to a Malteser without the crunch.
The post on Newfoodsuk Facebook page about the new Cadbury Balls quickly caught the attention of fans, who shared nostalgic memories of the treats.
'These used to be called Tasters, loved these,' one user wrote.
Another added: 'Tasters were the best!'
'Tasters were my favourite as a child,' another recalled.
A flurry of tags of Facebook friends on the platform also led to people sharing their memories of the 90s and noughties.

One person said: 'Omg is it the Tasters from years ago?! I do hope so. Remember getting these with nan every Friday.'
'These were known as Tasters and we'd have them on the way to school,' someone else remembered.
'Omg looks like Tasters! Loved them back in the day. We need to find these,' one person tagged.
It appears that the look-a-like Cadbury Dairy Milk Balls are now available in Iceland stores along with other new varieties of treat-sized bags including M&M's cookie dough flavour and Cadbury Strawberry Bites.

In recent months, there has been a flurry of nostalgic snacks returning to the shelves, including a rare Cadbury chocolate bar initially launched in 2012.
Crispello, a mix of wafer and chocolate, had only been available abroad until recently, when shoppers were quick to spot it in B&M.
The bars were being sold in individual packs, each containing four separate chocolate-covered crispy wafer shells with a creamy chocolate filling, for just 49p.
