CHOCOLATE lovers are going wild after a rare Cadbury treat from overseas was spotted on B&M shelves.
The 5 Star Mini Treats – a caramel-packed favourite usually found in far-flung places like India, Brazil and South Africa – are now being sold for just £2 in UK stores.
The Cadbury 5 Star Mini Treats family pack is £2 in B&M
The surprise choc drop includes 15 individually wrapped caramel nougat bars, each coated in Cadbury’s smooth chocolate.
It’s not listed on the B&M website, so it’s likely a limited-time offer – meaning fans will need to move fast if they want to snap one up.
B&M teased the arrival on Instagram, said: “The newest treat has just flown into B&M. These 5 Star Mini Treats are fab for sharing… Who’ll be grabbing a packet before they’re gone?!”
And fans wasted no time flooding the comments.
One shopper wrote: “They look bloody good. I looked at these yesterday but didn’t buy them… now I’ve seen the inside I’m off to B&M in case they sell out.”
Another simply said: “Running to @bm_stores.”
A third tagged a mate and asked: “Wanna try these?”
And a fourth added: “They look lovely.”
The 5 Star bars aren’t normally sold in the UK – instead, they’re a global favourite in countries like Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines and Egypt.
But now Brits can finally try them without hopping on a flight.
The 150g family-style pack sits among B&M’s other Cadbury chocs – but not every store may stock them, and prices could vary slightly.
To find your nearest B&M branch, head to the store locator on its website.
As always, it’s worth using price comparison sites like Trolley.co.uk to check where the best deals are – especially if you’re stocking up.
In other chocolate news, Toblerone confirmed it has axed an iconic chocolate bar leaving shoppers devastated.
Sweet giant Mondelez exclusively told The Sun, shoppers will no longer be able to get their hands on the dark chocolate version of the bar.
Recently, shoppers were seen flocking to Morrisons to get their hands on a whopping 360g Toblerone bar.
The sweet treat was being snapped up for just £3 using Morrisons More card.
The bars previously hit shelves for £6.26, meaning shoppers are making a saving of over 50%.
Elsewhere, shoppers spotted Cadbury’s Daim Eggs back on shelves for just £1.50 on B&M shelves.
The Easter treat made its return after the Christmas version, Dairy Milk Robins, was discontinued, leaving shoppers gutted.
Whilst, Morrisons slashed the price of a number of its big packs of Cadbury chocolates to just 87p.
The chocolates include Bitsa Wispa, Crunchie Rocks, Oreo Bites, and Cadbury Animals, all going for a fraction of their usual price.
The 110g bags of sweet treats usually range anywhere between £1.75 to £2 at the major supermarkets.
Remember to compare prices
It is important to always shop around as you might find a cheaper alternative.
Websites like Trolley and Price Spy let you compare thousands of products across different retailers to find the best price.
Price Spy even lets you see how much an item has cost over time, so you can see if the current price is a good deal.
A quick scan on the Google Shopping/Product tab will also bring up how much retailers are selling a certain item for too.
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 Trolley.co.uk 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.
