A limited-edition Australian Cadbury Dairy Milk PB&J bar has appeared in UK stores, combining peanut butter and jelly flavours with milk chocolate.

A limited-edition Cadbury Dairy Milk PB&J bar produced by Cadbury Australia and manufactured in Tasmania has caused a frenzy among UK shoppers. The 170g bar is available in Home Bargains and B&M stores, with customers rushing to buy it before it sells out.

The bar is inspired by the American peanut butter and jelly sandwich but uses creamy Dairy Milk chocolate instead of bread. It contains peanut-flavoured crème, crunchy peanut pieces and raspberry-flavoured jelly, all encased in Cadbury's milk chocolate.

Shoppers have responded enthusiastically, with many describing the bar as 'delicious' and saying they 'need to try' it. Reaction has not been entirely positive, however. One social media user complained: 'It's a bit heavy on the jam for me, needs more peanut.' Others called it 'yucky', while many stated they 'needed' to get their hands on it 'immediately'.

The news comes as other rare Cadbury products return to UK supermarkets. Astros, space-themed chocolate and candy balls with a biscuit centre, have been imported from South Africa and are now available at B&M for £1.30. The sweets were first launched in the UK in 1997 as a competitor to Smarties and M&Ms but were discontinued in 2008. They are being sold in 40g and 150g boxes.

The Cadbury Dairy Milk Winter Mint Crisp bar is also back on UK shelves for the festive season. The 350g bar, combining milk chocolate with crunchy mint pieces, is priced at £5 in Tesco and Ocado, £6 in Morrisons and £5 in Iceland, with discounts available through loyalty card schemes at some retailers.
