Bargain store shoppers across the UK have been sent into a frenzy after a sighting of a rare and coveted Cadbury chocolate bar, native to Australia, on B&M shelves.
Shoppers' Sweet Discovery Sparks Excitement
The buzz began when an eagle-eyed customer shared a photo of a Cadbury Dream Lemon Slices Bar in their local B&M store. The image was posted to the popular Facebook group Newfoodsuk, sparking immediate intrigue and hope among members.
Reactions in the group ranged from sheer delight to disbelief. "Oh my! Hope this is real," wrote one hopeful commenter, while another exclaimed, "What the heck is this?!!!" The post has fuelled speculation that the fan-favourite treat might be available in branches nationwide, though this remains unconfirmed.
An Australian Import with a Zesty Twist
This particular chocolate bar is not a standard UK offering from Cadbury. It originated in Australia as part of the brand's "Slices" range, several of which have made sporadic appearances in B&M stores over recent years.
The bar is described as featuring creamy white chocolate combined with a tangy lemon filling, inspired by traditional Australian lemon slice desserts. However, taste reviews are mixed; one shopper who had tried it noted, "I love white chocolate [but it's] a bit disappointing the lemon isn’t that strong. Can barely taste it."
While the exact current price at B&M is not confirmed, this bar was previously spotted on sale for around £2.99.
Where Else Can You Find This Rare Treat?
For those unable to track it down in B&M, the bar is also sold by specialist importers. One UK-based site, CandyMail, lists the Cadbury Dream Lemon Slices.
The site describes the 170g bar as "a refreshing twist on creamy white chocolate" that creates "the perfect balance of sweet and zesty." Be warned, however, that convenience comes at a premium. While currently out of stock, CandyMail typically sells the bar for a hefty £7.99.
This discovery highlights the ongoing trend of UK bargain retailers sourcing unique, international confectionery, much to the delight of adventurous sweet-toothed customers.
