But the mouthwatering treat will only set punters back £1.25 after making a return to retailers. Sweet-toothed revellers flocked to hail the find. "I want one," one shopper said. A second added: "Yummy!" A third revealed: "I got three today. "They've already been eaten." Cadbury has more new products coming next month. It is adding to their Twirl range with a limited-edition Twirl White Dipped bar, which will be available from early June 2025. This new version combines the classic Twirl milk chocolate layers with a smooth coating of white chocolate. We've outdone ourselves with this one' say Cadbury Ireland as they reveal new limited edition bar 'coming soon The iconic chocolate brand shared the news in a post on Facebook earlier this month. "OK but we've really outdone ourselves with this one," it told chocoholics. It described the new flavour as "unreal, indulgent, smooth, swirly, creamy, melty, new, and mouthwatering." However, the confectionery veterans also revealed that this new buy "won't be around forever". So once this exciting new bar hits shelves, Cadbury fans may want to stock up while they can. "Introducing Twirl White Dipped, keep your eyes peeled for when you can get your hands on it," the post read.

Making a comeback Earlier this month, chocolate fans were buzzing with excitement after spotting a new Cadbury treat that brings back fond memories of a beloved classic. The discovery was shared in the popular Facebook group, Food Finds UK, where shoppers were quick to notice its striking similarity to the nostalgic Cadbury Tasters. The new treat, named Cadbury Dairy Milk Balls, is said to resemble the discontinued Tasters, which first appeared in 1996. These small, round Dairy Milk chocolates were similar to Maltesers but lacked the crunchy centre. Despite their rich, chocolatey taste, Cadbury Tasters were quietly discontinued in the mid-2000s due to low sales.

Cadbury confirms its discontinued much-loved biscuit treat
Has your favourite product vanished from shelves? 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.

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.

Cadbury confirms it has discontinued popular chocolate bar just two years after it first launched
Scroll down to find out what other Cadbury bars have been axed in recent years CHOC SHOCK Cadbury confirms it has discontinued popular chocolate bar just two years after it first launched Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) CADBURY has confirmed it has discontinued a popular chocolate bar just two years after its first launch. The Dairy Milk maker has dropped the limited edition treat after introducing it in the summer of 2023. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 Fry's Coffee Creams have been dropped by Cadbury after launching in 2023 Credit: Amazon Cadbury didn't say when the Fry's Coffee Cream bars, coming in a multi-pack and combining dark chocolate with a fondant centre, were axed - just that they were only available while stocks lasted. A spokesperson said: "We continuously adapt our product range to ensure it meets changing tastes whilst supporting growth for our customers and our business. 'Our Fry's Coffee Cream multi-packs were introduced as a limited-edition product in summer 2023 for fans to enjoy while stocks lasted. "They have since been discontinued but we still have plenty of other delicious Fry's products for consumers to choose from, including Fry's Chocolate Cream and Fry's Peppermint Cream Multipacks." The Fry's Coffee Cream bars were hugely popular after their launch, with shoppers regularly talking about them online. One post on the Food Finds UK Facebook page in July 2023 featuring a picture of the three-packs in Poundland got major attention, with thousands liking and commenting on it. One said: "Omg! Love these." Another commented: "Omg I want them love coffee." Meanwhile a third added: "How did I f***ing miss these!" It's worth bearing in mind, retailers and manufacturers regularly discontinue products due to customer demand and sales. Which chocolate bars have been discontinued in the UK? Insiders exclusively told The Sun often when a new flavour is brought in, an old one has to go. Steph Herbert, head of marketing at Walkers, said: "The reality is that within shops and the customers that we work with, they only hold a certain number of products on their shelves at any one time. "We know that our fans' taste buds are always evolving, so we opt to make changes to our line-up and we'll maybe swap one flavour in for another flavour." Other products dropped by Cadbury Cadbury has discontinued a number of products in recent years as it, like Walkers, shakes up its offering. The chocolatier confirmed it had axed the popular Dairy Milk Winter Orange Crisp bar ahead of Christmas. The 360g bar was made of smooth chocolate with orange crisps, and became a festive favourite for shoppers. Cadbury also axed its Dairy Milk Mint bar from shelves last year, with shoppers demanding it be brought back. At the back end of 2023, choc lovers were left gutted after finding out Dairy Milk 30% less sugar had been discontinued. The lower calorie option, which first hit shelves in 2019, was axed with a spokesperson saying "demand for this product has dropped". The Cadbury's Dream chocolate bar was discontinued in the early noughties to customer dismay as well. It was relaunched in 2019 though, under the new name "Cadbury White". Cadbury also this year launched Cadbury Dream Raspberry in B&M, combining Cadbury Dream and Marvellous Creations bars. 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. Do you have a money problem that needs sorting?
