Cadbury’s new chocolate bar to be released later this year: Cadbury Twirl Golden Dipped bars provoke memories of Caramac and Cadbury Snowflake

Chocolate fans have had their taste buds tickled with news of a new arrival from Cadbury. The sweet treat maker has announced it will launch a limited edition version of a classic later this year - with fans speculating it could hark back to a now-unavailable favourite.

Cadbury is reported to be about to reveal plans for a new Golden Dipped Twirl, set to hit shelves later this year. The new take on the classic bar will see the chocolate filling coated with a layer of golden, caramelised white chocolate.

And it has provoked fond memories among chocoholics of the previous white-dipped Twirl which hit shelves last year - and reminded eaters-of-a-certain-age of classic treat, the Cadbury Snowflake and rival brand Nestlé’s discontinued Caramac.

Speculation is also rife the new bar will be the UK version of the Twirl Caramilk, an Australian variation sometimes found in B&M stores. The move was confirmed by a spokesperson for Mondelēz International, who said "the rumours are true".

"Some of our eagle-eyed fans may have spotted the new limited-edition Cadbury Twirl Golden Dipped bars are coming," they added. "We’ll be unveiling the bars nationwide later this year so keep your eyes peeled for further details on the launch – we promise, it will be worth the wait."
