BOUNTY fans are going wild for a new product spotted on Asda's supermarket shelves. <\/p>\n
Eagle-eyed shoppers spotted new Bounty-flavoured chocolate & caramel cake in stores this week.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
The sweet treat is made of a coconut flavour sponge cake filled with milk chocolate chips and desiccated coconut, sprinkled with milk chocolate pieces and more coconut.<\/p>\n
Posting in Facebook's Food Finds UK group, the foodie said: "New at Asda, there wasn't a price there but there was a Mars one as well above that scanned at \u00a32."<\/p>\n
Shoppers were racing to the comments to share their excitement.<\/p>\n
One tagged her friend and said "omg" while the friend replied with "yasss".<\/p>\n
While another said: "Could eat that now".<\/p>\n Someone else added: "Going there today!"<\/p>\n Customers also commented that they've seen the same item in Farmfoods and Herons Foods.<\/p>\n The Sun has asked where the Bounty loaf cakes will be stocked and how much they'll cost shoppers.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n We'll update the piece as soon as we know more, though shoppers have claimed it costs between \u00a32 and \u00a32.15.<\/p>\n Bounty is a controversial flavour for chocolate aficionados. <\/p>\n Just last week, fans were outraged to discover that Bounty had discontinued its dark chocolate bar. <\/p>\n One of the bar's biggest fans,\u00a0Piers Morgan, posted on\u00a0X\u00a0(formerly Twitter) and said: "I've just been told my favourite dark chocolate red wrapper\u00a0Bounty bars\u00a0have been discontinued, and this is the last one left in my dressing room stockpile.<\/p>\n "I'm outraged. This will cause immeasurable harm to my\u00a0mental health. Please reconsider."<\/p>\n Last Christmas, Mars caused a stir when it removed Bounty bars from some of its boxes of celebrations.<\/p>\n Instead additional\u00a0Galaxy, Mars, Milkyway, Snickers and Teasers bars were added to\u00a02,000 Bounty-less\u00a0tubs.\u00a0<\/p>\n The move was part of a trial to see if\u00a0shoppers\u00a0wanted to get rid of Bounty's permanently.\u00a0<\/p>\n But it wreaked havoc and Mars assured fans it was just temporary.<\/p>\n Shoppers also just realised that Mars' Topc Mar is no longer on supermarket shelves. <\/p>\n The\u00a0Mars\u00a0favourite was quietly taken off shelves in 2021 and it seems fans are only just starting to realise.<\/p>\n The popular bar contained hazelnuts, nougat and caramel and was first launched in the UK in 1962.<\/p>\n It was initially removed from boxes of Celebrations in 2006, and now it has been taken out of production completely.<\/p>\n In May this year, the confectionary giant confirmed it would be ditching plastic packaging and going back to using paper \u2014 like it did up until the mid-1970s.<\/p>\n It means bars will feel a little different, but company bosses promise it will not affect the freshness \u2014 or customers will get a refund.<\/p>\n Do you have a money problem that needs sorting?
