Cadbury is also launching a Dairy Milk Biscoff 350g sharing tablet for a recommended selling price of £5.83. Both products will hit supermarket in September, ahead of the festive season, The Grocer reports. Mondelez, which owns Cadbury, has also reportedly said it will roll out new designs for its Cadbury Roses and Heroes next month. Two new Toblerone Truffles flavours will launch as well - Golden Caramel and Assorted - with a recommended selling price of £6.75. The Sun has asked Mondelez which retailers the new Dairy Milk Biscoff products will be available at and their calorie information and will update this story when we have heard back. Their launch comes amid a busy period for the giant chocolate company which has unveiled a swathe of new items recently. Bournville Salted Caramel and Bournville Chopped Hazelnut started landing on supermarket shelves at the end of July. Shoppers can buy both never-before-seen flavours for £2.20 or £1.85 with a Nectar Card. Meanwhile, it brought out Dairy Milk Iced Latte in May, combining classic Dairy Milk chocolate with a creamy coffee filling and crunchy biscuit pieces. Dubai Ice Cream The brand also introduced four limited edition Dairy Milk summer edition bars with packaging that changes colour based on temperature. Shoppers have also been going wild for the limited edition Cadbury Twirl White Dipped that's been landing on shelves. The bars, branded "outstanding" by customers, are similar to the classic milk chocolate Twirl but with a white chocolate coating. However, not all recent news from the brand has been positive. Cadbury axed its Bournville fingers earlier this year despite rave reviews from customers. The crispy biscuits were a popular item within the Bournville range, which features dark chocolate products. But they were confirmed as discontinued in June after their launch just five years ago in October 2020. In other new chocolate news, Nestle recently brought out Milkybar Crispy Cookie sharing bags for £2. Two new KitKat Chunky bars hit shelves last month too - Chunky Funky and Salted Caramel. How to save money on chocolate We all love a bit of chocolate from now and then, but you don't have to break the bank buying your favourite bar. Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how to cut costs... Go own brand - if you're not too fussed about flavour and just want to supplant your chocolate cravings, you'll save by going for the supermarket's own brand bars. Shop around - if you've spotted your favourite variety at the supermarket, make sure you check if it's cheaper elsewhere. Websites like let you compare prices on products across all the major chains to see if you're getting the best deal. Look out for yellow stickers - supermarket staff put yellow, and sometimes orange and red, stickers on to products to show they've been reduced. They usually do this if the product is coming to the end of its best-before date or the packaging is slightly damaged. Buy bigger bars - most of the time, but not always, chocolate is cheaper per 100g the larger the bar. So if you've got the appetite, and you were going to buy a hefty amount of chocolate anyway, you might as well go bigger. Do you have a money problem that needs sorting?

Cadbury parent Mondelez seeks EU deforestation law delay
CADBURY chocolate maker Mondelez is urging a one-year delay in the implementation of the European Union's deforestation law, a senior company executive said. The company supports the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) in principle, Massimiliano Di Domenico, vice president of corporate and government affairs for Europe said, but urged policymakers to account for 'on-the-ground realities.' Di Domenico was speaking at the European Parliament last week and later posted his comments on LinkedIn. In July last year, Reuters reported that Nestle, Mars Wrigley, and Ferrero backed the law in a joint paper, while urging Brussels to provide clearer guidance and support to help companies meet the compliance deadline. The proposed law, which aims to end 10% of global deforestation fuelled by EU consumption, requires companies and traders importing soy, beef, cocoa, coffee and related products to prove their supply chains do not contribute to the destruction of the world's forests, or face hefty fines. Di Domenico said the cocoa sector is 'under huge pressure' due to soaring prices, declining production, and digital infrastructure gaps in origin countries which could affect compliance and disrupt supply chains. 'That's why we are respectfully, transparently and responsibly calling for a 12-month delay — not to dilute ambition, but to enable practical, inclusive, and effective implementation,' Di Domenico said in his post. The EU has already delayed its launch by a year to December 2025, following complaints from trading partners including Brazil and the U.S., and cut back reporting rules after industry criticism. - Reuters

The upgrade also introduced a new King Size 200gm bar and a redesigned chunk shape across the entire range, 'delivering a more satisfying chocolate experience in every bite'. 'Crafted with love at the Shah Alam plant by over 250 chocolate-makers, Cadbury Dairy Milk embodies a commitment to quality and innovation,' the company stated yesterday, in front of selected local media representatives at the brand's only plant in Southeast Asia. It added that the plant has been certified halal by the Department of Islamic Development Malaysia (Jakim) since 1994 and adheres to the highest food safety and quality standards. 'Additionally, it embraces sustainable practices through recyclable packaging, renewable energy, and sustainable cocoa sourcing, supported by Mondelez International's global 'Cocoa Life' initiative. Mondelez International (Malaysia & Singapore) marketing head See Mei Sin said: 'Cadbury Dairy Milk has enjoyed a long heritage and brand love in Malaysia for more than 75 years. It has become a huge part in the lives of Malaysians, helping them to share connection, celebrate milestones and create milestones to last. As we continue this journey, we've been listening closely to our consumers and evolving with them. 'Today, we are proud to build this continued connection with our fans with the launch of our new and more enriching Cadbury Dairy Milk chocolates that are richer and more chocolatey with every bite.' 'Not just a chocolate bar' See stated that Cadbury's 'Glass and a Half' spirit is rooted in generosity and the belief in uplifting others in meaningful ways. 'This comes to life through initiatives that celebrate everyday kindness, such as 'For You I Would' and 'Cadbury Kuih Raya Dari Hati'. In partnership with MyKasih Foundation, 'Kuih Raya Dari Hati' is a bake-for-charity initiative that empowers women from underserved communities with a chance to showcase their skills, earn additional income and support other communities in need during the festive season. 'Since its launch in 2021, the programme has grown into a national movement that blends cultural celebration with social impact. In 2024, it was recognised by the Malaysia Book of Records for the baking of 150,000 Cadbury chocolate tarts, donated to over 30 welfare homes and underserved communities through Food Aid Foundation. More than just a charitable initiative, it created real income opportunities ahead of the festive season while fostering a strong sense of community.' The richer and more chocolatey Cadbury Dairy Milk, including the King Size 200gm bar is now available nationwide. 'With a renewed recipe and a heartfelt mission to spread joy, Cadbury invites Malaysians to fall in love with chocolate all over again,' said See. She added that Cadbury Dairy Milk is spreading joy across Malaysia with its Purple Truck, travelling nationwide from July 1 to Aug 31, 2025. 'This exciting initiative aims to connect with communities and celebrate the simple pleasures of chocolate through interactive activities, indulgent treats and unforgettable experiences. Malaysians can look forward to sampling the brand's rich, chocolatey goodness while embracing moments of togetherness at every stop.'
