B&M are selling a combination of the Cadbury Dream and Marvellous Creations bars.
The bars contain raspberry flavoured candy chips and jelly pieces, as well as popping candy which is slathered in dream white chocolate.
A Facebook user discovered the snack in her local B&M and took to an online group named Food Finds UK to reveal her discovery.
According to her, the raspberry flavoured snack is on sale for just £2.99 at local B&M stores alongside packs Caramilk Crunchie bites.
Fans of the sweet treats went wild in the comments section of the widely shared post, with some proclaiming that the dream bar is, in fact, a 'dream'.
A second Facebook user posted: 'The original Dream bar is top tier.'
Another shopping sleuth found that B&M are also selling Cadbury Dairy Milk Slices, which come in a mouthwatering shortcake biscuit flavour.
Like the Dream bar, the Dairy Milk snack costs just £2.99.
B&M regularly goes viral for stocking some of the UK's favourite chocolate bars, including a coconut flavour of Aero's popular bubbles bar.
The store even made headlines when it began selling a limited-edition Lion Bars, which have been a perennial favourite for shoppers.
As the weather heats up, B&M has unveiled an incredible garden range which is perfect for the summer.
B&M's three metre sail shade is on sale for £7 and can help give you a reprieve from the intense heat.
It is described as being "perfect shelter for patios, gardens, or other outdoor areas" and can be cleaned easily using a damp wipe.
The shade can be attached to trees, walls, fences and posts using the ropes attached to the product.
When the cool nights roll in, B&M have a solution for the cold too.
The budget store is selling a mesh fire pit for just £8 which is produced by the brand Outdoor Adventure.
Measuring at 42cmx42cmx34cm, the pit can be folded up and easily transported if you are heading to the beach or to a campsite.
I went to B&M for a radiator cover & came out with £230 of furniture for £40 - here's how I nabbed such epic bargains
Unlike many stores, which have been forced to close several of their branches, B&M has gone from strength to strength over recent years.
The chain announced in 2024 that it hoped to open 90 additional shops in 2025 and 2026 as part of an ambitious expansion plan.
However, B&M has had to face competition from rival discount stores which have seen a surge in popularity in recent years.
The Quality Discounts group is opening a store in the busy town of Rayleigh and already has five locations in Essex towns including Halstead, Clacton and Grays.
Top discontinued products
Here are our top discontinued snacks - including picks from our team...
Fabulous Bakin' Boys Cupcakes
Consumer reporter Emily Mee says: "It was always a good day when I spotted these in my lunch box at school. Putting a layer of chocolate on top of a vanilla cupcake is a simple idea but a genius one. I would pay good money to try these again..."
Ready Salted Chipsticks
Head of Consumer Tara Evans says: "Ready Salted Chipsticks. Why did they get rid of this classic flavour? Some people think ready salted is boring - but why mess with a classic? I often feel taunted when I see the salt and vinegar version in shops."
Coco Pops Rocks
Tooti Frooties
Senior consumer reporter James Flanders says: "Tooty Frooties were a chewy blast of childhood joy. Scrapped after 50 years, they were Britain's alternative to Skittles - and in an age obsessed with nostalgia, bringing them back just makes sense. Lots of dupes can be picked up at budget supermarkets but they just don't taste the same."
White Maltesers
While the milk chocolate version is still going strong, White Chocolate Maltesers were pulled from shelves in 2014. Mars said it was a "difficult decision" at the time, and fans still post comments on its social media pages calling for it to come back.
Heinz Toast Toppers
Out of all the discontinued products, this is one of the ones we see the most calls for to come back. The creamy cans came in a variety of flavours like chicken and mushroom or cheese and ham. They were binned in 2015 after delighting shoppers for decades.
Cadbury Spira
Another of the regular calls we see is for the Cadbury Spira to return. The chocolate featured twin bars in each pack which were formed into a spiral shape, with six hollow tubes running through each one.

Commenting on a video of Jess showcasing her outfit, the follower said: 'Girl he needs to ask you yesterday.' However Jess, who recently shut down cheating rumours, confirmed they were no more as she responded: ''Girl' says who?? The internet?? 'He doesn't need to ask me anything because we're not together. Let it go.' Jess hit back at rumours she had cheated on Ayo, after he had removed all traces of her on his Instagram.

What Martha Stewart really thinks about Meghan Markle 'following in her footsteps' - as she questions Duchess' 'authenticity' but lavishes praise on Gwyneth Paltrow
Meghan Markle has been dubbed the 'new Martha Stewart ' after reinventing herself as a homemaker and influencer after leaving royal life. But Martha herself appears less convinced that the Duchess of Sussex could be her successor as the next Queen of Entertaining. 'I hope she knows what she's talking about', America's most trusted lifestyle expert has said, the Daily Mail can reveal today. Ms Stewart, 83, has been accused of taking a thinly-veiled swipe question Meghan's authenticity in a new interview about celebrities following in her footsteps. Meghan, 43, has launched her Netflix show With Love, Meghan and her As Ever brand this year, to mixed reviews. Ms Stewart said bluntly: 'Meghan, I don't really know very well. I hope she knows what she's talking about'. She added of the Duchess: 'Authenticity, to me, is everything, and to be authentic and knowledgeable about your subject matter is extremely important'. Gwyneth Paltrow and Meghan Markle shocked fans in March as they joined forces to shutdown ongoing speculation of 'feud' between them in a special Q&A where Meghan appeared in Paltrow's kitchen But Martha then lavished praise on Meghan and Harry's neighbour Gwyneth Paltrow, praising her 'very successful' career as an actress turned entrepreneur. Royal watchers claimed this was more shade thrown on the Duchess, with several claiming Ms Stewart was 'calling out' Meghan. Martha gushed in an interview with Yahoo Australia: 'Gwyneth has been very successful; she created quite an interesting body of businesses. She's admired. She won an Oscar for heaven's sake as an actress. She's pretty powerful.' Martha's comments emerged as Meghan Markle announced another product coming to her As Ever line. Gwyneth Paltrow and Meghan Markle joined forces in March an attempt to shut down rumours of a feud between them. The 52-year-old Oscar winner addressed the speculation during an Instagram Q&A after one of her 8.7million followers asked if she was 'comprehending the Meghan Markle beef that social media says you two have?' Paltrow, filming in the kitchen of her sprawling home in the Montecito, replied: 'I genuinely do not understand this at all, whatsoever.' She then turned her head to ask someone off screen: 'Do you understand this?' She quickly panned her iPhone camera to her right to reveal Montecito neighbour Meghan sitting beside her at the counter, who playfully shrugged her shoulders, giggled and leaned back in her chair while eating a piece of pie. The joint appearance comes amid comparisons between the Duchess of Sussex's new Netflix show With Love, Meghan and lifestyle brand As Ever and Paltrow's Goop empire - sparking rumours of a potential feud. Paltrow had posted a video of herself preparing breakfast which were similar to scenes from the Netflix series. She used the song used in adverts for Meghan's series, This Will Be (An Everlasting Love) by Natalie Cole. The actress turned wellness guru, who founded her wellness company in 2008, has defended the duchess setting up a lifestyle brand, saying 'everybody deserves an attempt at everything that they want to try'. Meghan, 43, launched her lifestyle brand earlier this year, releasing the first products in April, which included a range of teas, a raspberry spread, and a limited-edition wildflower honey with honeycomb, amongst other things. She followed it up with an apricot spread and another honey, and in July, she expanded into the world of alcohol when she dropped her own wine - the 2023 Napa Valley Rosé. Each release has been met with fierce excitement from her fans, and every product has sold out pretty quickly. Now, the Duchess of Sussex 's brand has announced another batch of her Napa Valley wine, made in 2024 unlike the last bottles, which were from 2023 'It marries the same harmony of notes from our first blend and creates an elegant medley of delicate yet memorable flavour,' reads a press release. 'You'll want to clink glasses with friends as the sun sets, toasting to a summer of joy. 'Barefoot or in sandals, dressed up or dressed down, this rosé may become your favorite accessory for alfresco lunches and dinners at dusk.' In the release, As Ever listed some of the positive feedback customers had given the company over its first rosé, which included comments like, '10 out of 10,' 'perfect,' and 'elevated flavour.' 'This affirmed all of the love, time and effort our team, and our founder, poured into curating this blend to evoke the sun drenched spirit of Napa Valley, and the breathtaking tenor of the California Coast,' As Ever added. 'Thank you for filling our cup. Now it's time for us to fill your glass! We are pleased to share that our 2024 Napa Valley Rosé will be available for purchase next week.' The brand also posted to Instagram with a series of images showing the new wine resting in beach sand. It was uploaded alongside a caption that read: 'Oh, how we love seeing the world through rose colored glasses. Rosé colored glasses? Perhaps even better. Our new vintage of As Ever's beloved rosé is available next week. 'Stay tuned for more details and timing.' As Ever's first wine went on sale on July 1 and sold out within the hour. Customers were able to purchase three bottles for $90, six bottles for $159, and 12 bottles for $300. But the Daily Mail's insider at Netflix, her business partner, has said that Meghan's rosé, which promises to 'capture the essence of sun-drenched outdoor moments ', has not been a huge success and this was another 'nail in the coffin' for the $100million broadcast deal. 'The wine isn't selling', they said, adding: 'There's no great demand whatsoever'. Last month, Daily Mail exclusively revealed that the alcoholic beverage is made by Fairwinds Estate, a California winery that creates bespoke wines for celebrities. The 2023 Napa Valley Rosé is described on the bottle as a 'delicately balanced rosé with soft notes of stone fruit, gentle minerality, and a lasting finish.' It has a 14.5 percent alcohol by volume for the 750ML bottle. The Daily Mail FEMAIL team tried the rosé and while the wine was smooth, we couldn't easily detect the notes of stone fruit. In fact, it tasted quite bland, and almost water-y. In addition, the rosé had some acidic notes, leaving a somewhat uncomfortable sensation at the back of our throats after swallowing. In the end, the verdict was the wine lacked flavour and tasted affordable and ordinary. It wasn't terrible - but it certainly wasn't great. We felt the rosé just didn't taste like you bought it at a fancy vineyard, where it's supposed to be made, but rather, like a wine you would be served at a work happy hour. The FEMAIL team also reviewed her initial set of products, and found that Meghan's raspberry spread was too thin, too sweet, and very runny. Her hibiscus tea was extremely bitter with heavy notes of floral, with one taste tester comparing it to 'drinking lip balm.' 'It tasted like dirty dishwater,' another FEMAIL writer shared. Some of us couldn't even bear to swallow it, as one person even spat it back into the cup.

My man got a ‘new' girlfriend after I went from scoffing TWO McDonald's breakfasts a day at a size 28 to losing 14st
A JUNK food addict who used to scoff two McDonald's breakfasts a day is now unrecognisable after shedding a whopping 14 stone. Paige Vickers ballooned to 23st after years of binging on takeaways, crisps and chocolate and was taunted as a 'whale' by cruel school bullies. 6 6 The 25-year-old from County Durham, yo-yoed between 21st and 23st while battling to shift the pounds with diets and fitness fads. On days she skipped her McDonald's fix, she'd grab sausage rolls and bakes from Greggs instead. But after splashing £3,000 on a gastric sleeve op in Turkey in June 2024, Paige's life has completely changed. She now weighs just 9st 12lbs and has gone from a size 28 to a slinky size 10, with pals saying she looks like a totally different person. Unbelievable photos show Paige's transformation a year apart next to her partner, Matthew Wilkinson, 25, looking like a completely different person. Now, Paige admits friends and family do double takes in the street and quips it's like Matthew as a new girlfriend. Paige, from Stockton-on-Tees, County Durham, said: "It is a shock, it's like my partner has a new girlfriend. "Even my family have said they still have to double check it's me because they can't get over how quickly I've changed. "It's so funny the number of times I've been to town and I've walked past old friends and they haven't even noticed it's me. They're gobsmacked. "It makes me feel buzzing. It makes me dead happy because I didn't think I'd get to this point. I didn't even think I'd hit 14 stone. 1000-Lb. Sisters' Tammy Slaton stuns in 'incredible' full-body photo after plastic surgery and 500-Lb weight loss "I'd tried loads of different diets, I'd tried different exercise routines. Nothing could shift it, it was just defeating. "My partner just wanted to stand by me through whatever. We both found each other at the right time and since then we've stuck by each other. "I say we've stuck by each other through thick and thin. Literally." The couple have been together for nearly two years after meeting through mutual friends, when Paige was at her heaviest. Paige said: "Since being a teenager I've always struggled with my weight. "I've always been on the bigger side. I got diagnosed with polycystic ovaries when I was 18 or 19. "That took a toll on me, it started making my weight fluctuate. "It [surgery] had always been in the back of my mind anyway, but after everything that I'd been through I was like, 'no this is it now'. "I was really struggling with how I looked. I'd been bullied multiple times, that's the first thing people go for in an argument. It does impact you a lot, you don't realise it. "It'd be your typical, 'you're fat, you're chubby, whale'. It does take a toll." Paige's change in diet TYPICAL FOOD DIARY BEFORE Breakfast - Two McDonalds breakfast meals or snack from Greggs Lunch - A big sandwich Tea- Takeaway pizza or Chinese takeaway Snacks - Crisps, chocolate bars Drinks - Litre of fizzy pop TYPICAL FOOD DIARY AFTER Breakfast - Protein shake Lunch - Still full from breakfast Tea - Chicken and broccoli with sweet potato Snacks - Piece of fruit Drinks - Water Paige posted a TikTok video showcasing her jaw-dropping transformation and while many were quick to congratulate her, others were less supportive. Paige said: "I'm quite a sarcastic person. I think because I've had that much said to me over the years I'm thick skinned. "Some of the comments are stupid, saying that he's going to leave me anyway because he clearly likes bigger people, it's a fetish. "That's just your typical stuff though from trolls and it always tends to be the single men." The video has been viewed more than 445,000 times by users and racked up 30,500 likes.
