Discontinued chocolate bars Brits miss the most ranked
From Cadburys to Nestlé and Mars, there's no denying that we're a sweet-toothed nation. From the crunchy honeycomb centre of a Malteser to the gooey caramel of a classic Mars, everyone's got a favourite chocolate bar. Most of us will also link our favourite chocolate to memorable moments such as school days or that walk home from our first job. So, when they disappear from the shelves, we wait longingly for a comeback. Now, a survey by a brand that is part of Smooth Radio has revealed the nation's top ten most-loved bars that Brits would like to see return. The discontinued chocolate bar Brits want to return Surveying 2,000 people across the UK, the results found that the minty twist on the classic Wispa bar came out on top, with more than one in five (22%) naming it as the chocolate they'd most like to see return. A member of the Wispa family, the mint version first hit shelves in 1995 but was sadly discontinued in 2003 - much to the frustration of chocolate lovers. Kit Kat Caramac, which was discontinued two years ago after 64 years due to declining sales, came in joint second with 20% of the vote. Milky Way Crispy Rolls, pulled from production by Mars in 2022, also tied for second place. White chocolate fans were left disappointed when Cadbury Dream was discontinued in the UK over two decades ago - and it seems they still miss it, as nearly one in five (18%) named it their preferred discontinued treat. Known for its rich milk chocolate combined with smooth white chocolate, Cadbury Marble followed close behind with 16% of the vote. It was discontinued in 2012, while Orange Crunchie - which featured a tangy orange-flavoured honeycomb centre - placed alongside it. Rounding out the top five were other nostalgic favourites like Mars Delight, Cadbury Aztec, SnowFlakes, Quality Street Toffee Deluxe, and Mint Crunchie, each earning 13% of the vote.

New Nestlé chocolate bar is reminding fans of 'amazing' discontinued 00s classic
When us Brits find a chocolate bar we like, we get pretty passionate about it. And when that particular snack disappears, we'll go to great lengths to get it back. There are countless petitions begging Cadbury and Nestlé to relaunch the likes of Dream or Galaxy Truffle, and when a discontinued classic is spotted in B&M, chocolate lovers go on the hunt. But now, it's good news for lovers of the gone-but-not-forgotten Cadbury Marble, which vanished from our shelves back in 2012. Before you get too excited, the bar isn't back — but there is a potential alternative on offer. Nestlé is launching the KitKat Chunky Funky, a limited-edition option that features a crispy cocoa wafer wrapped in a rather jazzy milk and white chocolate swirled coating. It's got fans comparing the chocolate coating to the beloved Marble, which also featured a mix of white and milk chocolate, and has been hailed as an 'amazing' bar, which 'needs to make a comeback'. 'Kinda looks like a marble blend,' wrote popular food reviewer, @johns_snackreviews on Instagram. 'Very white and milk chocolate combo.' Commenter Kimberley Gillis agreed, saying: 'I love marble chocolate.' Others are simply excited by the prospect of a new bar. 'That looks sensational,' wrote Ross Strong on Facebook, while Pat Arnold said it looks 'absoloutely gorgeous.' Although you can't please everyone. One reviewer simply wrote: 'Marble would have been better.' Each to their own. Nestlé are actually launching three brand new bars in total. There's also the KitKat Chunky Duo Salted Caramel which the confectionary brand says 'takes indulgent treats to the next level'. The new duo bar features the classic crispy wafer topped with a rich layer of salted caramel filling, wrapped up in chocolate coating. The third bar is a new Blue Riband treat: Blue Riband Vanilla. It has a vanilla filling with light wafer coating, and coming in at 83 calories a bar, it's a lighter option for those who want a quick snack. KitKat's brand manager Rida Ahmed hopes shoppers are excited by the new offerings: 'KitKat Chunky has a fresh look while keeping the delicious crispy wafer and KitKat chocolate that our fans adore. It's such a fun product and we can't wait to see how shoppers react,' she said. All three bars will start to roll out in shops across the UK this week — though pricing is yet to be confirmed. Metro has contacted Nestlé for comment. In the meantime, chocolate lovers can look out for a new treat from McVitie's. The confectionery giant is launching a brand new chocolate bar inspired by Club Orange. More Trending If you grew up in the 80s or 90s, the chocolate bar was no doubt a staple of your lunchbox. And now the iconic McVitie's biscuit is getting a spin-off. Club Layers Orange – a thick-milk chocolate-coated wafer bar with a zingy orange-flavoured cream filling – is a fresh new take on the biscuit we all grew up with. McVitie's says the new product is designed for on-the-go snacking, or as the perfect afternoon sweet treat, and promises to deliver 'a quick, tasty pick-me-up'.
