Cadbury Mint Twirl returns to UK supermarkets after three-year absence

Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 27 Oct, 14:32 · Archive

Cadbury's mint-flavoured Twirl chocolate bar has returned to B&M stores three years after disappearing from shelves.

Cadbury's mint-flavoured Twirl bar has returned to B&M stores three years after it disappeared from most major supermarket shelves. The 35g bar is priced at £1. The treat features two fingers of mint-flavoured chocolate curls and swirls, coated in Cadbury Dairy Milk.

The Mint Twirl was originally launched in April 2023 before a wider release in May, making it Cadbury's third limited-edition Twirl of the decade, following Caramel and Orange. The 2023 version weighed 43g and had a recommended retail price of 75p. This year's version is 8g lighter and 25p more expensive.

Shopper excitement has been evident on social media, with comments including 'They're back!! Mmm' and 'Get in my belly'. Unlike the Twirl Orange, which became a permanent fixture owing to its popularity, the Mint Twirl subsequently vanished. Neither Cadbury nor B&M has confirmed how long the current rerelease will remain available.

Cadbury has also brought back Astros, space-themed chocolate and candy balls with a biscuit centre that were first launched in the UK in 1997 as a competitor to Smarties and M&Ms. Discontinued in 2008, Astros are now available at B&M for £1.30, imported from South Africa where they remain on sale.
