Quality Street brings back retro chocolate treat – but it wont be found in tubs

Quality Street is the ultimate Christmas gift.

The chocolate tub makes a perfect present for loved ones during the festive period and it's great all year round.

Recently we shared the devastating news that Quality Street fans won't see 24 flavours make tubs this year.

Now Nestle, who owns the chocolate brand, is bringing back a popular flavour after it disappeared two decades ago.

At the time, fans were left devastated as the iconic Coffee Creme chocolate was axed from tubs.

And luckily this return will happen just in time for the festive period.

But there's just one catch… Shoppers won't be seeing them in well-known tubs.

The sweet treat will only be found inside Quality Street's festive cracker and advent calendars this year.

So to do this, you'll have to go to Waitrose or John Lewis stores from September 20.

It comes after Nestle asked fans which retro sweet they would most like to see return to the shelves.

A statement on the website read: "We asked and the nation has spoken.

"The favourite retro Quality Street sweet is… the Coffee Creme.

"It may have been out of our tubs and tins for more than 20 years, but the Coffee Creme has not been forgotten."

It added: "Not only does it have a Facebook group dedicated to its return, but Nestle receives more enquiries about the Coffee Creme than any other discontinued Quality Street variety.

"Now its status has been cemented after it topped our poll of most-loved throwback sweets.

"Receiving more votes than the bottom three varieties combined, only the Almond Octagon mounted a serious challenge to the coffee-flavoured favourite."

Over the years, Nestle has shaken up the tubs.

Some of them were dropped altogether, for example, the Toffee Deluxe left tubs back in 2019, with no plans to return.

And the Chocolate Caramel Brownie sweet was also discontinued in 2021.
