Italy's Kinder Country now in Sainsbury's for £1.60
Kinder Country bars, known as Kinder Cereali abroad, were launched in 1986 exclusively in Italy.
The treat consists of milk chocolate filled with milk cream and crispy puffed and roasted cereal.
It appeared that in the UK, the bite-sized bars were only available to buy from online sweet distributors or in bulk from Amazon - until now.
Shoppers were delighted to see that Sainsbury's stocks the treats in a four-pack for £1.60 - a steal in comparison to online prices ranging from £13 upwards.
Reviewers on the supermarket's online shopping site were quick to praise the store for getting them on the shelves.
One customer commented: 'Yippee I'm so made up to see these in Sainsbury's.
'I've been looking for them everywhere.
'They're so tasty - good on Sainsbury's for stocking them.'
While another added: 'I'm Italian so I knew what I was buying, I highly recommend this item, as it is ideal for a snack or for the children's lunch box.'
Others were also quick to share their delight at the snack being available on UK shelves.
'Couldn't believe when I saw it on the shelf as a new product,' a reviewer said.
'I have been buying them abroad for so many years and asking family members to bring them over from Italy, as they are branded a different name.

'Well done for getting them on the shelf.'
Kinder says that Kinder Country is 'perfect for sharing, as kids and adults alike can enjoy a scrumptious snack'.
The Kinder brand was founded in 1968 in Alba, Italy, by Michele Ferrero.
