Cadbury Mint Twirl has returned to B&M stores three years after disappearing, priced at £1 for a 35g bar.

Cadbury's limited-edition Mint Twirl has returned to B&M stores three years after it first disappeared from supermarket shelves. The 35g bar, featuring mint-flavoured chocolate curls and swirls coated in Cadbury Dairy Milk, is priced at £1.

The bar 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 variants. The 2023 version weighed 43g and retailed for 75p. Unlike the Twirl Orange, which became a permanent fixture due to its popularity, the Mint Twirl subsequently vanished from most major supermarket shelves.

Shoppers have expressed excitement on social media about its return, with one commenting 'They're back!! Mmm' and another writing 'I need to try'. The bar was first spotted by the food-spotting account UK Newest Foods. Neither Cadbury nor B&M has confirmed how long the product will remain available.

The Mint Twirl's return follows the recent reappearance of Cadbury Astros, space-themed chocolate and candy balls with a biscuit centre, which are also now available at B&M for £1.30. Astros were originally launched in the UK in 1997 as competitors to Smarties and M&Ms before being discontinued in 2008. B&M has imported the stock from South Africa, where Astros continue to be sold.
