'Best ever' rare Cadbury chocolate bar that is 100 years old returns to UK stores
The Australian bar is back at £1 in B&M stores, while the retailer also sells it in a £5.99 Australia-themed gift box.
Cherry Ripe bars have returned to B&M stores across the UK for £1. This rare Cadbury chocolate, more than 100 years old, is not typically stocked as a standard item in the country.
Originating in Australia, Cherry Ripe is the country's oldest chocolate bar, dating to 1924. It features a dense, sweet filling of cherries and moist coconut, covered in Cadbury's Old Gold rich dark chocolate.
Several other rare Cadbury chocolates have recently appeared in stores, including Dream, discontinued 24 years ago, and Crispello, which left the market 14 years ago. Astros and Twirl Mint have also been spotted.
One fan posted on the Facebook group Dansway Gifts and Bargains, saying "You can't beat them, best chocolate ever." Another added, "My guilty pleasure at the moment, absolutely to die for."
Cherry Ripes are also available as part of an Australia's Chocolate Favourites gift box at B&M for £5.99. This option allows shoppers to access a wider range of rare imported treats.
