Quality Street is the ultimate Christmas gift. <\/p>\n
The chocolate tub makes a perfect present for loved ones during the festive period and it's great all year round.<\/p>\n
Recently we shared the devastating news that Quality Street fans won't see 24 flavours make tubs this year. <\/p>\n

Now Nestle, who owns the chocolate brand, is bringing back a popular flavour after it disappeared two decades ago. <\/p>\n
At the time, fans were left devastated as the iconic Coffee Creme chocolate was axed from tubs.<\/p>\n
And luckily this return will happen just in time for the festive period.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
But there's just one catch… Shoppers won't be seeing them in well-known tubs.<\/p>\n
The sweet treat will only be found inside Quality Street's festive cracker and advent calendars this year.<\/p>\n
So to do this, you'll have to go to Waitrose or John Lewis stores from September 20.<\/p>\n
It comes after Nestle asked fans which retro sweet they would most like to see return to the shelves.<\/p>\n
A statement on the website read: "We asked and the nation has spoken.<\/p>\n
"The favourite retro Quality Street sweet is… the Coffee Creme.<\/p>\n
"It may have been out of our tubs and tins for more than 20 years, but the Coffee Creme has not been forgotten."<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n
"Now its status has been cemented after it topped our poll of most-loved throwback sweets.<\/p>\n
"Receiving more votes than the bottom three varieties combined, only the Almond Octagon mounted a serious challenge to the coffee-flavoured favourite."<\/p>\n
Over the years, Nestle has shaken up the tubs.<\/p>\n
Some of them were dropped altogether, for example, the Toffee Deluxe left tubs back in 2019, with no plans to return.<\/p>\n
And the Chocolate Caramel Brownie sweet was also discontinued in 2021.<\/p>\n
