A New Treat for Chocolate Lovers: The Yorkie Biscuit & Brownie
A brand-new Yorkie bar is hitting supermarket shelves this week, and chocolate enthusiasts are in for an exciting treat! This announcement follows the recent discontinuation of the beloved Yorkie biscuit bars, which are distinct from the original chocolate bars.
Nestlé has introduced its latest creation, the limited-edition Yorkie Biscuit & Brownie. This innovative bar provides a delightful twist on the classic Yorkie format. Inside, you’ll discover chunks of smooth brownie-flavored milk chocolate combined with crunchy biscuit pieces, creating a unique taste experience.
Michael Kehoe, the Yorkie Brand Manager, expressed his enthusiasm, stating, “The new bar brings together brownie-flavor chocolate and crunchy biscuit pieces to make a delicious treat that we’re excited to share with Yorkie fans everywhere. We can’t wait to hear what people think!”
The Yorkie Biscuit & Brownie joins the ranks of the classic Yorkie Original Milk Chocolate and Yorkie Raisin & Biscuit flavors. However, as this is a limited-edition release, it won’t be available indefinitely. If you want to savor this latest addition to the Yorkie lineup, make sure to grab one while you can!

In other news, Tesco is giving away free KitKat chocolate bars this weekend! The KitKat sharing bars come in three delicious flavors: Salted Caramel, Hazelnut, and Double Chocolate.

Discovering Rare Chocolates
B&M shoppers were taken aback to find Perky Nanas, typically exclusive to New Zealand, now available at the discount store for only £1. These soft banana-flavored 45g chew bars are generously coated in Cadbury Dairy Milk chocolate. Sweet-toothed customers quickly shared their discovery on Facebook, realizing it was a revival of the full bar that was popular in the mid-2000s.
Smart Shopping Tips for Chocolate Lovers
While indulging in chocolate is a delightful experience, it doesn’t have to come at a high cost. Consumer reporter Sam Walker shares some valuable tips on how to cut expenses:
- Opt for own brands – If you’re not particularly concerned about brand names and just want to satisfy your chocolate cravings, choosing supermarket own-brand bars can save you money.
- Shop around – If you’ve spotted your favorite chocolate at a specific supermarket, it’s wise to check if it’s cheaper at another store. Websites like Trolley.co.uk allow you to compare prices across major retailers to ensure you’re getting the best deal.
- Keep an eye out for yellow stickers – Supermarket staff often place yellow, orange, or red stickers on products to indicate discounts. These reductions usually happen when items are nearing their best-before date or if the packaging is slightly damaged.
- Buy larger bars – Generally, larger chocolate bars are more economical per 100g. If you have a sweet tooth and plan to buy a substantial amount of chocolate anyway, consider opting for the bigger size.
