The exciting new goodies will hit the shelves in major retailers and convenience stores from June 1. They're sure to fly off the shelves with both new products priced at just £1.15. Squashies Tropical will feature fun and fruity parrot, pineapple and watermelon shapes in mango and passionfruit and watermelon flavours. Sour Shooting Stars is the second addition to the new Squashies line-up. It will feature the tempting sour flavour combinations of pink lemonade, starfruit and peach and cola and lime in cute shooting star shapes. Swizzels senior brand manager, Clare Lynch, said: "This really is breaking news as we introduce new shapes and flavour combinations to our iconic Squashies range with the addition of Squashies Tropical and Squashies Sour Shooting Stars. "Sour and tropical flavours are trending this year, and we're excited to bring Squashies fans new shapes in these popular flavours that add an extra element of fun and are sure to make an impact. "We hope these exciting, on-trend new treats will help people to see the Squashies side of life this summer!' If you're keen on getting your hands on the new Squashies, fans can head to Manchester on June 5. People are only just realising that the 'key' sweet in Haribo favourites is something else & admit they're 'unsettled' The Squashies team will be handing out free samples. Fans will also be able to sample the new treats at other events and cities throughout the summer. Swizzels also launched a new flavoured Refreshers bar this month to celebrate 70 years of the classic sweet. Shoppers have been racing to their nearest supermarket to get their hands on the new Tropical chew bar, featuring mango and pineapple flavours. And if that wasn't enough, B&M created a frenzy recently after slashing the price of giant tubs of Swizzels sweets to just £1. The 650g tubs include all the Swizzel sweet shop favourites and classics. This includes Drumstick Squishies, Refreshers, Fruity Pops, Love hearts, Fizzers and Double Lollies. Sweet lovers were also going wild after snack-maker Mars revealed a tantalising new flavour earlier this month. Skittles Citrus contains five new flavours: Orange, Lemon, Lime, Mandarin and Blood Orange. They're now available at big supermarkets, grocery stores and corner shops across the country. 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.

Dunkin'® Kicks Off a Summer of Refreshers with the Pink Spritz, Starring Giggly Squad Podcaster and TV Star Paige DeSorbo
BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--This summer, Dunkin' is serving bold flavor and big energy in its Refreshers line-up, starting with the Dunkin' Pink Spritz Refresher. The vibrant drink is a fizzy, fruit-forward blend of guava, orange and passion fruit flavors with a splash of sparkling water—a sparkling, sweet sip that's ready to kick off summer. To celebrate, Dunkin' teamed up with fashion-forward cultural tastemaker Paige DeSorbo —known for her hit podcast Giggly Squad, Bravo's Summer House and effortlessly scroll-stopping style. In the new spot, Paige starts the day where her fans know she's happiest: in bed with her cat, Daphne, nearby. But one sip of Pink Spritz turns her lounging morning into a ready-to-run-the-world moment. 'One Pink Spritz, and now we're booked and busy,' Paige jokes in the spot. She adds, 'Anyone who follows me knows I'm usually horizontal until noon, but somehow this drink has me fully styled and running errands. It's giving motivation.' The $3 Refresher Summer Continues Available nationwide for a limited time, the Pink Spritz joins a colorful crew of Refreshers, including fan favorites Strawberry Dragonfruit, Mango Pineapple and Tropical Guava. Guests can try Pink Spritz or other varieties of Refreshers all-day for $3 for a medium* —no catch, just delicious sips at an unbeatable value. With customizable bases like Green Tea, Lemonade, Sparkling Water, Water, Black Tea or Oatmilk, guests have more ways than ever to make their Refresher their own. And the Pink Spritz is just the beginning, with Dunkin' revealing more flavor drops and culture-forward collabs this summer. Flavors Made for Summer Cravings Dunkin' is adding a sweet new treat to the mix: the Orange N' Vanilla Specialty Donut. A taste of summer nostalgia, the glazed cake donut is topped with a smooth vanilla flavored icing drizzle and available for a limited time. It joins other seasonal menu items announced earlier this month, like the Iced Strawberry Lemon Loaf and Pistachio Signature Latte, giving guests even more ways to pair their perfect summer pick-me-up.
