Cadbury unveils new treat with 'best ever' biscuit — but there's a pricey catch
If you can clear a jar of Biscoff spread without a second thought, Cadbury's newest treat might be up your street. The confectionery giant has launched a brand-new chocolate that fans are desperate to get their hands on – but there's a catch. It's only available as part of an advent calendar. Cadbury Dairy Milk Biscoff Advent Calendar is packed with 24 bite-sized chunks of chocolate. Half of the doors open to reveal the new Dairy Milk pieces filled with crunchy Lotus Biscoff spread. The chunks aren't currently available to buy in packets, so if you want to try them it'll set you back £7.79, which gets you the full calendar of chocolate. Biscoff has somewhat of a cult following, with snackers hailing it as the 'best ever' biscuit brand. But when Cadbury launched the Dairy Milk Biscoff bar earlier this year — which features caramelised Biscoff pieces scattered in the classic Cadbury chocolate —some fans were 'disappointed' and felt it lacked the distinct Biscoff flavour. However, the new chunks have won people over already. Popular instagram account @treatsinstore recently shared a rave review. A post about the chunks reads: 'I'm pleased to report they're much, much better than the bar. For a Biscoff fiend like me, these have a much stronger Biscoff taste and a great fudgy and slightly crunchy texture. 'They're not perfect; the chocolate melts easily. They still don't seem quite as satisfying as the official spread bar, and I don't like that I had to buy an advent calendar to get just 12 pieces. But if you love Biscoff, these are highly addictive and a must-try.' The calendar was also spotted by Newsfoods UK on Facebook. A post read: 'Brand new Cadbury Dairy Milk Biscoff Advent Calendar. Yes, these are filled to the brim with Biscoff spread. Literally no words – 10/10!' Others commented their enthusiasm: 'I know what advent calendar I want this year.' While another joked: 'It wouldn't make it to Christmas in my house.' It's not clear whether the chunks will eventually be sold separately. Metro has contacted Cadbury's for comment. More Trending The 236g calendar is currently only available online at Cadbury Gifts Direct. The launch comes after the confectionary giant announced it's soon to launch two new spins on its beloved Bournville chocolate. The new bars include 'Simply Indulgent' Salted Caramel and Chopped Hazelnut varieties of its classic dark chocolate, which has remained a firm favourite since its inception over 100 years ago. View More » Although some details are still under wraps, we do know they'll be available across a range of UK retailers priced at £2.20 a bar. There's a lesser-known Biscoff bar that seriously packs a punch. Metro's Lifestyle Editor Kristina Beanland stumbled upon it during a trip to her local Co-op. She said: 'Biscoff's own brand Milk Chocolate with Biscoff Spread might not have a punchy name, but as a long-time Biscoff lover (I was a fan when it was simply a plastic-wrapped biscuit served with your cuppa) I was intrigued. 'Having also been left feeling a little 'meh' by the Dairy Milk offering, I braced myself… and, the good news is, the Lotus bar did not disappoint. 'This Lotus bar isn't knew — having launched in August 2022 — but it's less well-known than Cadbury's offering, and availability varies from store to store. 'Currently, you can find it in Co-op for £3 (reduced from £3.60) and it's available online from Sainsbury's (£3.50), Morrisons (£3.50), Tesco (£3.50) and Asda (£2.98) — although you may not find it in store. 'And yes, while it's on the pricey side for a chocolate bar (the Dairy Milk Biscoff is currently on offer in Sainsbury's for £1) it's well worth it. 'The bar is basically a very thick layer of Biscoff spread encased in creamy milk chocolate, with some added crunchiness of the biscuit itself. It's chunky, at a a similar size to M&S's new Big Daddy bars. 'If the Cadbury version wasn't enough Biscoff for you, then this bar has it in spades. It's the overwhelming flavour by a long way, with the added kick of chocolate. 'Of course, it's sweet so you won't want much – but it's handily separated into squares (okay, rectangles) that actually make for a pretty decent portion. 'I've become pretty addicted since spotting the bars – which I give a solid 10/10.' Do you have a story to share?
