The new treat, called Skittles Citrus contains five new flavours: Orange, Lemon, Lime, Mandarin and Blood Orange.
Mars said they are available at big supermarkets, grocery stores and corner shops across the country.
And the sought-after treat was posted to the popular New Foods UK Facebook group when it was spotted in Asda.
The post received likes and comments from sweet fans eager to get their hands on the new flavour.
"Ooooh another one for the list," said one excited fan.
Another asked a friend: "plz look out for these i need them."
To which her friend replied: "Just got you a pkt, last on the shelf xx"
While another confessed: "I've had these, they are tasty."
""I've wanted this my entire life," added a fifth sweet fan.
This is the first Skittles flavour to launch since the brand released its Skittles Giants Gooey early last year.

Companies often try out new flavours to excite shoppers, and Skittles' senior brand manager Florence McGivern said flavour experts had been perfecting the new snack for "months".
"We know our shoppers are always looking for new, bold flavours, and citrus is the perfect way to bring something fresh and exciting to our Skittles lineup," she said.
The Sun recently chatted to insiders at Mars and Walkers about how they come up with new flavours - and why other products get discontinued. You can read more about that here.
Meanwhile, Swizzels have revealed a new flavour of classic sweets hitting supermarkets in days and shoppers can't wait.
And new flavours of Haribo sweets have hit the shelves in Lidl - and shoppers are loving them.
Plus, shoppers are rushing to Lidl to grab the new flavour of popular sorbet sweet.
Finally, Haribo has recalled sweets found to contain cannabis as the police launched a probe into gummies that 'made a family fall ill'.

Weekly horoscope for June 1 – June 7: What the stars have in store for every zodiac sign revealed
OUR much-loved astrologer Meg sadly died in 2023 but her column will be kept alive by her friend and protégée Maggie Innes. Read on to see what's written in the stars for you today. ARIES MAR 21 - APR 20 12 Letting Saturn settle into your sign is a wise decision, so hold off on any major personal moves this week to ensure all your plans are firmly in place. This will make success a more certain outcome. Your love life is transitioning from 'me' to 'we' as Venus moves forward, bringing together moments that will soon be on your calendar. Above all, believe in better, regardless of what has happened over the past weeks. TAURUS APR 21 - MAY 21 12 You are welcoming Venus, your romantic ruling planet, for its annual visit, and the key aspect for you is a sense of peace. Whatever happens between partners, you can adapt and grow through it. If you are single, choosing the date who instantly makes you feel 'seen' is a brilliant move. A creative moon will help take home-based ideas to the next, exciting stage. GEMINI MAY 22 - JUNE 21 12 Mercury and Jupiter are spending their final week in your sign, so make the most of this opportunity. Speak or write the words you've been hesitant to express and trust in your ability to create your own luck, especially when it comes to inner talents. In matters of love, a dreamy phase is beginning, and you should let your deeply emotional heart take precedence over your always-active mind. CANCER JUNE 22 - JULY 22 12 If an ambition you thought was long gone keeps resurfacing in your mind, it deserves your attention. Whether it's missed love opportunities or work goals you've admired, admitting what you truly want will allow Saturn to master its success. Partners may make private words public sooner than expected. Restart a style makeover rather than sticking with a costly mistake. LEO JULY 23 - AUG 23 12 The deep insight of the moon and the powerful energy of Mars are just two of the advantages in your chart this week. You also possess new passion ambitions that, this time, will not falter or fall due to obstacles of time or distance. Visualise the future you desire most, as you are already moving towards it. Your luck factor is linked to a former competition team who reunite. VIRGO AUG 24 - SEPT 22 12 The time to finalise key Virgo goals is now, as your coping and communication skills are at their peak. Delaying decisions may feel safer but could dilute your well-deserved personal fortune. Seek advice if you wish, but always follow your own heart first. In love, your new Venus outlook is bold and adventurous, and partners are eager to explore this with you. LIBRA SEPT 23 - OCT 23 12 You possess the strength to hold a couple or group together, as well as the honesty to highlight areas that need improvement. By the weekend, everyone will have greater clarity about the future and be more able to let go of the past. If you are single, the way your spirits lift when you see or hear someone is a strong love clue. Libra's luck factor is linked to mystery guests. SCORPIO OCT 24 - NOV 22 12 A long list of options can be narrowed down to one if you treat yourself with kindness rather than toughness. In love, if you experience doubts, Venus' new focus on lasting promises can help you move forward. At work, expecting yourself to know everything is unrealistic, but Saturn will be there to offer support. Luck could arise from multiple-choice contests. SAGITTARIUS NOV 23 - DEC 21 12 This week, your chart encourages you to do more of what you love, and you can begin immediately. Simple pleasures, which are often free, will strengthen connections between couples. If you are single, joining a group that shares your passions could introduce you to a love interest. Though your current work role may not be ideal, it is building your confidence for something much bigger and better. CAPRICORN DEC 22 - JAN 20 12 The foundations of your chart are shifting as Venus moves into your child-related zone. This could introduce younger influences into your life, either through love or work. Extra cash linked to parent-child bonds may bring luck as well. If you feel your attitude towards the future changing, don't resist it – allow yourself to embrace the carefree Capricorn you know is inside you. AQUARIUS JAN 21 - FEB 18 12 Your mantra this week is to strike while the creative iron is hot. Use your smart thinking and special luck to make changes, whether this involves asking for a different love dynamic, a new home setup, or pursuing a dream of a fashion or beauty business. Deep down, you know what you need, and you are ready to claim it. Love will be warmly forgiving. PISCES FEB 19 - MAR 20 12 Anything you say this week can convey your message effectively if you fill your words with love and respect. Avoid the temptation to blame or shame others, including yourself. There is newfound strength in your cash zone, giving you confidence to cut, review, or recalculate figures. Your passion self is proactive and poised, and 'P' love responds positively.
