While the bar weighs in at a hefty weight, so does the price, with the bar on offer at £60 for customers with a More Card.
However, those without a More Card will have to pay the full price of £80.
The chocolate bar is only available in store at Morrisons but is also currently sold on Amazon for £69.99.
This is not the first time that the giant chocolate bar has been released to the public as it was previously stocked in 2017.
as they released supersized items for the period.
The supermarket is replicating the same trick this year for Father's Day as they sell more big items alongside the Toblerone.
A limited edition footlong sausage roll, baked fresh in store everyday, will also be available for just £2 until June 15.
Alongside the supersized Toblerone and sausage roll Morrisons have a Father's Day range of indulgent bakery sweet treats, corking deals on beer and ale, and further gifts and cards.

This announcement follows public outrage at the supermarket after they encouraged customers to spend more but then ran out of promised rewards.
The retail giant introduced a special offer in February offering free or discounted luxury kitchen essentials in exchange for spending certain amounts.
Customers earn one More Card stamp for each £10 spent in-store.
Supermarket loyalty schemes - which has one?
MOST UK supermarkets have loyalty schemes so customers can build up points and save money while they shop.
Here we round up what saving programmes you'll find at the big brands.
Iceland: Unlike other stores, you don't collect points with the Iceland Bonus Card. Instead, you load it up with money and Iceland will give you £1 for every £20 you save.
Lidl Plus: Lidl customers don't collect points when they shop, and are instead rewarded with personalised vouchers that gives them money off at the till.
Morrisons: The My Morrisons: Make Good Things Happen replaces the More Card and rewards customers with personalised money off vouchers via the app.
Sainsbury's: While Sainsbury's doesn't have a personal scheme, it does own the Nectar card which can also be used in Argos, eBay and other shops. You need 200 Nectar points to save up £1 to spend on your card. You need to spend at least £1 to get one Nectar point.
Tesco: Tesco Clubcard has over 17million members in the UK alone. You use it each time you shop and build up points that can be turned into vouchers - 150 points gets you a £1.50 voucher. Here you need to spend £1 in Tesco to get one point.
Waitrose: myWaitrose also doesn't allow you to collect points but instead you'll get access to free hot drinks, and discounts off certain brands in store.
Once shoppers have earned 15 - the equivalent of spending £150 - they can unlock discounts on an array of top quality Pyrex kitchen containers.
Or, once reaching 30 stamps or above, the items become free depending on the value of the Pyrex product.
One disgruntled customer said: 'How frustrating after saving for dishes in your offer (Pyrex vacuum dishes) to be told that the store doesn't have any….
'Bad planning on your part and annoying for loyal customers who are supporting you.'
In Morrisons Eccles store in Salford, Manchester, a woman was recorded hurling items at the self checkout before throwing another customer to the floor.
The police were called to the scene and eventually arrested one woman at the scene on suspicion of assault and assaulting a police officer on June 3, 2025.
A Morrisons spokesperson declined to comment on the matter.

ALEX BRUMMER: 'Wise old hen' Chancellor dances on a pinhead
Rachel Reeves's pledge to restore fiscal stability and confine herself to one budgetary event a year is threadbare. When she delivers Labour's first full spending review next Wednesday, it will be her fourth visit to the dispatch box. As the Economist magazine remarked this week, it has been 'all pain, no gain'. Most of her difficulties can be traced back to the alleged discovery of a £22billion black hole in her public spending audit on July 30 last year. Reeves established a narrative, repeated by rote by her Cabinet colleagues, about a terrible inheritance. The number was contrived, in that the biggest element was a giveaway to public sector unions and railway workers, which brought a temporary truce. The Chancellor has made a series of tactical and strategic mistakes. At that very first appearance at the Treasury, she sowed the seeds of festering political dissonance by withdrawing the winter fuel allowance from pensioners. A costed gain to the Exchequer of £1.4billion last year and £1.5billion this year has proved ferociously politically expensive. It is now to be partly reversed in the spending review with the fuel payments restored but taxed as income for better-off silver surfers. Reeves then created a new rod for her back in her first Budget in October. The impact of £40billion of tax increases, fuelled by the debilitating rise in National Insurance Contributions, caused a growth stammer. The fundamental error was in shaping the fiscal rules. Taxation and current spending would be broadly balanced. The Government would only borrow for investment. But by leaving herself so little room for error on current spending, £10bn of headroom, the Chancellor sprung a trap. She ignored Harold Macmillan's dictum, 'Events, dear boy, events.' The headroom detonated another booby trap. Reeves's third intervention came in the spring. She took the axe to welfare, most notoriously to personal independence payments (PIPs) for those claiming disability benefits. It started a debate about Labour values, which has exposed Reeves to pressure to restore £3.5billion of payments to families with more than two children. Which brings us to the spending review. Any hopes that this would be the moment for Reeves to repair struggling public services have been smashed. A downgrade to the Office for Budget Responsibility's growth forecast, surging defence spending, the U-turn on winter fuel and the rocketing cost of servicing the national debt mean the envelope for current spending is negligible, with overall increases confined to 1.2 per cent or so. The joy, such as it is, will come from the capital spending plans. We had a flavour of this earlier in the week when Reeves unsheathed £15billion of transport investment across the North. One cannot but think most of these are reheated plans already announced by her predecessors. Infrastructure is critical and the Elizabeth Line in London and HS2 activity around Birmingham provide graphic evidence of how bold schemes can generate growth. But axing a supercomputer project in Edinburgh, as the Chancellor did last July, hardly speaks to UK tech ambition. In conversation at the CBI this week, Reeves described herself as a 'wise old hen' among G7 finance ministers as elections have brought newbies to the table. Her fiscal fortitude is creditable. Further tax increases, having pledged not to come back for more, would be a deception too far.

Tariff-hit steel maker Tata begs for US trade deal
Britain's biggest steel maker has urged Labour to step up efforts to finalise a US trade deal as the industry remains saddled with double digit tariffs. Rajesh Nair, boss of Tata Steel UK, said a deal with Washington is needed 'as soon as possible'. There is growing frustration that an agreement made last month has yet to take effect. Additional steel and aluminium tariffs remain at 25 per cent. The UK, however, was spared a recent doubling of the rate to 50 per cent, which hit other countries. Doubt continues over whether Indian-owned Tata will benefit from either exemption. That is because it imports steel from sister companies in India and Europe for finishing in the UK. US rules state that steel must be 'melted and poured' in the country they are imported from. Nair said it was 'critical for our business that melted and poured in the UK is not a requirement to access the steel quotas in any future trade deal'.

Leading businessmen Simon Peckham urges politicians to back UK firms
Politicians have been urged by one of Britain's leading businessmen to get behind wealth creators. As concern grows that the Government is hammering the private sector, Simon Peckham, who has made a fortune buying up and turning around industrial firms, said ministers 'should support' business. 'It would be nice if politicians understood that what [business] people are trying to do is generate wealth,' he said. 'If you don't generate wealth you don't generate tax income, and if you don't generate tax income you won't have any money to spend on causes they want to support, and which civilised countries probably should support.' Peckham is best known as the former boss of Melrose, the FTSE 100 firm which thrived by snapping up businesses under its 'buy, improve, sell' mantra. Most controversially, it took over and broke up the historic British industrial conglomerate GKN, earning opprobrium from unions and politicians. Peckham, 62, has since moved on to new venture Rosebank, which operates under the same principle and yesterday announced its first deal, the purchase of 72-year-old US firm Electrical Components International (ECI), a leading global supplier of electrical systems. Rosebank said it was raising £1.1bn to fund the deal, which it said values ECI at less than £1.5billion. The company said takeover opportunities had been 'enhanced by the turbulence of recent months' as Donald Trump's tariffs throw global trading into turmoil. Rosebank's acquisition of a US firm with more than £900m in annual revnenues represents a rare win for a UK-listed firm at a time when London's stock market is being degraded by foreign takeovers as well as the departure of many of its leading companies for New York. UK firms are being hammered by Labour's determination to saddle them with higher taxes and a raft of new workers' rights. Chancellor Rachel Reeves this week failed to rule out raising taxes further. Peckham said Rosebank would '100 per cent' remain on the UK market, adding 'we are proud to be so'. But he urged UK politicians to do more to back business.
