Chocolate lovers in the UK are buzzing about the latest Cadbury treat now available at B&M stores. The Cadbury fruit and nut tubes, which have been a hit in Australia, have finally made their way to British shelves. Newfoodsuk shared five different variations of the product on Instagram, including Chocolate Mint & Berry Bites, Milk Chocolate Coated Fruit & Nut, Milk Chocolate Coated Peanuts & Raspberry Bites, Milk Chocolate Coated Peanuts, and Milk Chocolate Coated Hazelnuts, ranging in size from 280g to 310g.
Despite the excitement over the new product, many customers were taken aback by the steep price tag of £6 per tube. Some shoppers expressed their disappointment with the cost, with one person even joking that B&M should remove the word “Bargains” from their name. Others pointed out the excessive use of plastic packaging, raising environmental concerns.
However, not everyone was deterred by the price or packaging. Some customers were eager to try the new Cadbury treats, with one person even expressing their excitement over the hazelnut variety. The general sentiment among those interested in the product was one of anticipation and delight.
The reaction to the Cadbury fruit and nut tubes highlights the mixed feelings among consumers when it comes to new food products. While some are willing to pay a premium for a beloved brand like Cadbury, others are more conscious of the environmental impact and cost of such indulgences. Ultimately, the decision to purchase these treats will come down to personal preferences and values.
As the popularity of the Cadbury fruit and nut tubes continues to grow in the UK, it will be interesting to see how B&M responds to customer feedback regarding the price and packaging. Whether the product becomes a staple on British supermarket shelves or fades into obscurity remains to be seen. In the meantime, chocolate lovers can enjoy the excitement and anticipation of trying a new and indulgent treat from a beloved brand like Cadbury.
