‘Mouth-watering' chocolate brand that disappeared from supermarkets is back
The big UK supermarkets aren't exactly short of options when it comes to chocolate, with own-brand bars and treats, as well as products by big names like Cadbury, Tony's and Nestlé. But there's one brand that's been notably missing from the likes of Tesco and Sainsbury's for the last five years as it swapped supermarket shelves for luxury retailers, and that's GODIVA. Founded in Brussels in 1926, the chocolate brand began with pralines and the business is named after the legend of Lady Godiva. It's been sold in the UK for years in high-end stores like Harrods and Selfridges and even has its own flagship store in Covent Garden, but the chocolates haven't been widely available in supermarkets. GODIVA's first foray into supermarkets came in 2017, when the brand partnered with Sainsbury's to sell its Belgian chocolates, but it disappeared from shelves there in 2020. However, that's all about to change as the 100-year-old brand is making a supermarket comeback and has just launched its version of the viral Dubai chocolate bar in Tesco. But, of course, there's a catch. The chocolate treat – a Pistacho & Kadayif bar which sees GODIVA milk chocolate wrapped around crunchy pistachios and crispy Kadayif pastry pieces – is only available at Tesco for a limited time. And when we say limited, we aren't joking. Shoppers now have just over a week to get their hands on it at their local supermarket, as it'll only be sold there until June 17. What's more, the premium bar doesn't come cheap with an RRP of £10, though those with a Clubcard will be able to save a little, getting it for £7.95. According to GODIVA, this new bar is a reimagined and more accessible version of their usual Dubai-style chocolate bar, which is sold in Harrods for £24.95. Speaking about the launch, Isabella Rogers, chief marketing officer at GODIVA, said: 'Inspired by the viral Dubai-style chocolate trend, our new GODIVA Crispy Kadayif & Pistachio Chocolate offers an effortless way for more people to experience our premium take on this indulgent sensation for a limited time only on the high street. 'From the signature GODIVA milk chocolate couverture to the delicate crunch of pistachios and crisp golden Kadayif, it's a true feast for the senses – designed for those who may not make it to our Covent Garden boutique but still want a taste of luxury.' The brand has a strong fan base, with reviewers on Yelp hailing it as 'expensive but well worth it', 'the finest chocolates to be had in the capital', 'mouth-watering' and 'the best chocolate in London' and 'delicious' in numerous four and five star posts about the Covent Garden chocolate shop. This comes after a number of other chocolate brands recently shared exciting news, including Cadbury. The iconic brand has unveiled brand new Dairy Milk bars for summer, with one new flavour plus fun colour-changing packaging. There's an Iced Latte Dairy Milk chocolate bar, which combines smooth coffee cream, biscuit pieces and the classic taste of Cadbury chocolate and four temperature-activated packets, which visually transform when the chocolate is chilled. Yes, that's right, in a somewhat unexpected move, Cadbury is actively encouraging people to put their chocolate bars in the fridge. More Trending The new cold-activated packs will look like ordinary purple Dairy Milk bars – until they are popped in the fridge. Using thermochromic technology, the temperature change will reveal one of four vibrant summer-themed designs as the wrapper changes colour to reveal a deep blue image. Elsewhere, Mars Wrigley, has just confirmed that the 'best' Maltesers are making a comeback after 11 years. (That's the white chocolate version, in case you didn't know.) 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. View More » 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. Do you have a story to share?

We'd love to hear from you - email us on money@ Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) CADBURY has discontinued its Bournville fingers in spite of rave reviews from fans. The crispy biscuits were a popular item within Cadbury's Bournville range, which features dark chocolate products. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 Cadbury has discontinued its dark chocolate fingers But manufacturer Cadbury this week confirmed it has ended the treat, having originally launched it in October 2020 as a lockdown treat to share at home. The Fingers were praised for being less sweet than the ordinary Dairy Milk fingers, meaning you could eat more of them at any one time. One fan said on the Asda website: 'I used to enjoy the regular chocolate fingers but since I've tried these I'm a convert! They are soo delicious especially with a cup of tea, and because they aren't as sweet as the usual chocolate fingers, they are also very moreish! 'Would recommend for everyone!' Another added: 'Just delicious. I'm a plain chocolate person, so made up with these.' A third said: 'Can't believe how nice they are. Were sadly gone in minutes.' The product had been particularly popular with vegans, as it did not contain milk, but there was disappointment in 2022 after skimmed milk powder was included in the recipe. Cadbury's owner Mondelēz International said: 'We continuously adapt our product range to ensure it meets changing tastes whilst supporting growth for our customers and our business. "Our Cadbury Bournville Fingers were discontinued this year. However, we still have plenty of other delicious products for consumers to enjoy, such as our Cadbury Bournville Giant Dark Buttons and our classic Cadbury Dairy Milk Chocolate Fingers.' It's not the first time a discontinued product has caused upset. Cadbury has also confirmed it has discontinued its Fry's Coffee Cream bars, while dark chocolate Toberlones have also gone. Walkers confirm they've discontinued fan favourite flavour Meanwhile, Aldi has axed its Dairyfine Blonde chocolate bar, leaving fans upset as they struggle to find their favourite sweet treat. DISCONTINUED DARK CHOCOLATE It comes as Brits have had to wave goodbye to a number of dark chocolate bars. Toblerone axed the dark chocolate version of the bar earlier this year. Mars axed its dark chocolate Bounty in 2023, leaving customers heartbroken. At the time shoppers said the moves was "bad for their mental health". Others were quick to share their pain with one fan saying: "Noooooo. Dark chocolate Bountys beat milk chocolate Bountys hands down. And it's not only dark chocolate fans getting bruised, a number of beloved chocolate bars have vanished from shelves in recent years. Nestlé confirmed two years ago that it had axed the Caramac bar, first launched in the late 1950s, due to "low sales". But the treat has been spotted sporadically at bargain retailers since. However, it's not all bad news sometimes iconic chocolate bars make a return. Milky Way Crispy Rolls returned earlier after they were discontinued three years ago.

However, it's not all bad news sometimes iconic chocolate bars make a return. Milky Way Crispy Rolls returned earlier after they were discontinued three years ago. Why are products axed or recipes changed? ANALYSIS by chief consumer reporter James Flanders. Food and drinks makers have been known to tweak their recipes or axe items altogether. They often say that this is down to the changing tastes of customers. There are several reasons why this could be done. For example, government regulation, like the "sugar tax," forces firms to change their recipes. Some manufacturers might choose to tweak ingredients to cut costs. They may opt for a cheaper alternative, especially when costs are rising to keep prices stable. For example, Tango Cherry disappeared from shelves in 2018. It has recently returned after six years away but as a sugar-free version. Fanta removed sweetener from its sugar-free alternative earlier this year. Suntory tweaked the flavour of its flagship Lucozade Original and Orange energy drinks. While the amount of sugar in every bottle remains unchanged, the supplier swapped out the sweetener aspartame for sucralose.
