Cadbury, Britain’s best-loved chocolate company, has launched a new twist on one of their most popular treats.

The confectionery giant that makes Dairy Milk and Creme Eggs sparked a fan frenzy on social media as its latest launch was revealed.

The popular company has kicked off the year on a strong note by introducing a new version of an all-time fan-favourite treat.

Now, chocolate lovers can enjoy Mega White Chocolate Buttons, which are available at Asda.

Cadbury explained the price jump on their UK page, revealing that costs across the supply chain had risen “steeply”.

The sweets used to be £1 but now they’re up to £1.25 in shops like Asda, Sainsbury’s, Tesco, and Morrisons. Even the 110g Mini Eggs Bar and the small carton have gone up.

Cadbury said: “Making changes to the price of our products is always a last resort, however, costs across our supply chain have risen steeply.

“Core ingredients we heavily rely on, like cocoa and sugar, are a lot more expensive, while the cost of energy, packaging, and transport also remain high.”
