'Need to try these': Irish shoppers go wild for TWO brand new Cadbury bars with 'bigger chunks '

It comes as Cadbury plans to join forces with an iconic biscuit brand for a new chocolate bar range.

Chocoholics and Biscoff-loving Brits could soon be seeing a combo of the two hit supermarket shelves.

Cadbury owner Mondelez International has partnered with Lotus Bakeries to bring the mouth-watering creation to life.

Elsewhere, Morrisons shoppers have been rushing to buy an unusual flavour of crisps recently spotted on shop shelves.

The supermarket giant is currently stocking its own Gyros & Tzatziki Flavour Ridge Cut Crisps and it's safe to say customers have been sent into a melt down.

After news spread of the brand new release, many crisp fans claimed they were going to "stockpile" the delicious confectionery treat.

How to save money on chocolate

CONSUMER reporter Sam Walker explains how to save money on your next chocolate haul...

Go own brand - if you're not too fussed on flavour and just want to supplant your chocolate cravings, you'll save by going for supermarket's own brand bars.

Shop around - if you've spotted your favourite variety at the supermarket, make sure you check if it's cheaper elsewhere.

Websites like Trolley.co.uk let you compare prices on products across all the major chains to see if you're getting the best deal.

Look out for yellow stickers - supermarket staff put yellow, and sometimes orange and red, stickers on to products to show they've been reduced.

They usually do this if the product is coming to the end of its best before date or the packaging is slightly damaged.

Buy bigger bars - most of the time, but not always, chocolate is cheaper per 100g the larger the bar.

So if you've got the appetite, and you were going to buy a hefty amount of chocolate anyway, you might as well go bigger.
