Nestle quietly discontinues 'really good' After Eight chocolate after 20 years
Nestlé said the dark chocolate and peppermint treat has been removed from its range, ending a product run that began in 2006.
On November 6, 2026, Nestle confirmed the discontinuation of After Eight Dark Mint Chocolate Bites after 20 years. The chocolate was part of the company's effort to expand the After Eight brand into more shareable formats.
Launched in 2006, After Eight Bites featured small, square pieces of dark chocolate filled with soft peppermint fondant, distinct from the original wafer-thin mints. The product introduced casual, shareable formats to the line.
Fans had been unable to find the product for some time, with one person posting on Twitter asking NestleUKI: "@NestleUKI please tell me that Mintola/Mint Munchies/After Eight Bitesize have not been discontinued?……not seen in ages."
Praising the chocolate, TikTok user Slambino previously posted a video commenting: "Wow! Great chocolate, nice mint taste, not too much, that's good." The post received more than 11,600 likes.
A Nestle spokesperson replied: "We're sorry to have to give you disappointing news, but unfortunately, After Eight Dark Mint Chocolate Bites has been discontinued from our range." The company thanked consumers for their loyalty.
