Chocolate fans convinced iconic treat is returning 11 years since it was discontinued as they say it ‘better be true!’

CHOCOLATE lovers are convinced that an iconic treat discontinued 11 years ago could be making a comeback on the shelves.

TikToker Minstrel Munches has sparked a buzz on social media, claiming a much-loved snack launched in 2003 might be returning to stores.

White chocolate Maltesers were originally launched as a seasonal product, but became so popular that they began being sold all year round.

However, due to low sales, they were discontinued, leaving many chocolate fans devastated.

Yet in a recent TikTok, the social media foodie claimed the beloved sweet treat is set to make a comeback this summer.

She said: "They are coming back. They are expected to be released in the middle of June or the start of July."

Minstrel Munches wasn’t the only social media account to share the news.

The popular Food Finds UK Official Facebook group also claimed that white chocolate Maltesers are set to make a comeback.

The post received hundreds of likes and comments from chocolate fans expressing excitement about the potential return.

One user wrote: "OMG this better be true."

"Yum can't wait", another commented.

While a third said: "Oh my god, our prayers have been answered."

White Maltesers were discontinued in 2014.

They were pulled from shelves 11 years after they first launched in 2003.

White Maltesers were originally launched as a seasonal product but became so popular that they began being sold all year round.

It has been reported that they were discontinued due low sales but many chocolate lovers were devastated to see the end of their run.

In 2017 a petition was started to bring the sweet treat back.

The petition's creator had hoped to garner 2,500 signatures of support but as of March 2024 only 1,637 had signed the campaign.
