Cadbury bringing back popular Christmas chocolate for first time in 10 years

Cadbury are bringing back a popular chocolate for Christmas 2023 - the first time the treat has been seen on shelves for nearly a decade. The confectionary giant has annouced its Dairy Milk Christmas Chocolate Coins are making a comeback just in time for the festive season.

In case you needed a reminder, the coins are perfectly round, milk chocolate discs individually wrapped in gold packaging. They were once considered one of the ultimate chocolate treats for Christmas, available in supermarkets up and down the UK by December.

But since 2014, the coins have been non-existent - until now. In a post on Instagram, said: “Get ready because Cadbury Dairy Milk Chocolate Coins are coming back after a decade! Hope you’re as thrilled as we are.”

The coins are available to buy online from Cadbury Gifts Directin single bags, in bundles and as part of the chocolate brand’s build-your-own festive kits. For £1.99, you can snap up a bag filled with 13 individually-foiled milk chocolate coins - or go all out and buy 54 bags for £107.46.

Katie Hill, junior brand manager for Cadbury, said: “If you cast your mind back to 2014, you may remember that Cadbury caused disappointment across the nation, as we announced the sad discontinuation of our much-loved Chocolate Coins. We’ve listened to customer feedback and we’re thrilled to be able to finally announce we’ll be bringing back this beloved holiday treasure this year – a product which represents festive joy and delicious nostalgia for so many.”

The Dairy Milk chocolate coins aren’t the only festive treat making a return in 2023. Nestle recently announced they were bringing back popular Quality Street sweet the “coffee creme” for the first time since the 90s this year.

However, the chocolate treat won’t be found in Quality Street tubs. It will only be available inside the Quality Street festive cracker and advent calendar. The festive cracker will be on sale for £6 and the advent calendar for £10. Both products will be available from September 20 and can be found at John Lewis and Waitrose.
