This comes after Nestle revealed it would be launching three new chocolate bars in June of this year. Joining the Chunky Funky and Chunky Salted Caramel is a Blue Riband Vanilla flavour. The triple launch couldn't have come at a better time, with Nestlé fans still reeling from the shock axe of Clusters, a breakfast staple loved by many. It comes hot on the heels of the disappearance of Cheerios Vanilla O's, also binned by the brand last summer.

SWEET-TOOTHED Brits are rushing to Sainsbury's to pick up a new version of a classic chocolate bar. The "funky" version recently hit shelves, enticing shoppers with an exciting new twist. 1 The New Funky KitKat Chunky is now available from Sainsbury's A rare version of a KitKat has sent chocolate fans into a frenzy as they rush to try the fun new flavour. The KitKat Chunky Funky is the latest limited edition treat from Nestle. And shoppers can pick up this sweet treat from Sainsbury's for just £1 a bar. The highly-anticipated new snack was shared on the Facebook group One shopper shared a picture of a four-pack containing snack size versions of the chocolate treat. New twist It adds a fun twist on the original KitKat Chunky, substituting in a cocoa wafer, which is coated in marbled milk and white chocolate. Shoppers shared their excitement over the new release in the comments section. "I already had them, absolutely brilliant," wrote one impressed customer. Most read in Fabulous "Oh I need to get to the shop," said another eager Facebook user. "To quote Andy Pipkin: 'I want that one'," joked a third commenter. We've outdone ourselves with this one' say Cadbury Ireland as they reveal new limited edition bar 'coming soon History of KitKats The classic KitKat Chunky first hit UK shelves in 1999, following the original two and four finger bars. It has solidified itself as a fan favourite, but is also known for its innovative limited edition flavours. Such as the Peanut Butter, White Chocolate, and Orange editions of the bar. Other limited edition versions inlcude the Hazelnut Cream, Coconut, and Brownie. Meanwhile, the original KitKat bar was first established in 1935, in York. 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. More on new flavours And Nestle previously released two new KitKat flavours in recent weeks. Terry's Chocolate Orange has launched a new flavour but it is only available from one UK supermarket. Plus, two new Cadbury's chocolate bars that have hit UK shelves for first time. Read more on the Irish Sun And Quality Street has brought back an iconic discontinued chocolate bar after two years. A rare new Cadbury's chocolate bar has been described as combining two sweet treat favourites.
