‘Sounds awesome’, cry sweet treat fans as they salivate over new flavour of popular sweets

A NEW flavour of a popular sweet has hit the shelves of UK stores just in time for summer.

Sweet-toothed shoppers have been raving over the unusual flavour of the fan-favourite candy.

Tic Tac, the iconic mint brand, has released a unique flavour to commemorate the festival season.

The firm unveiled its new mint packed with cherry, juicy lemon and pink lemonade flavours.

The bright pink limited edition flamingo cherry lemonade flavour will be available for a limited time during summer months.

The firm said that the candies will still maintain its signature refreshing taste while bursting with sweet flavours.

Gemma Mattison, marketing director at Tic Tac said: “We are constantly looking at new ways to excite our consumers and this new flavour is perfect for those looking for a fresh hit this summer”.

The treat is retailing for £1.70, and comes in a pack of 49g and 18g. It's not clear yet which shops will stock the sweets.

There's no specific date that the sweets will be coming off shelves, as limited edition ranges are usually available until they sell out.

Shoppers have flocked to the comments to express their excitement over the new treat.

One person wrote: "I love this flavour so much."

Another one added: "It already looks awesome.";

A third person said: "I would definitely try them."

Someone else wrote: "Sounds awesome. I'm looking forward to the variety."

A fifth person said: "Wow sounds very cool."

Another person added: "The packaging is great."

It comes as cereal giants Kellogg's have launched a brand-new flavour of their legendary Squares bars by combining two beloved breakfast staples.

Walkers has also revealed three new crisp flavours alongside a big recipe change.

McVitie's is rolling out a new Jaffa Cake flavour inspired by a retro sweet favourite - but fans are divided.

Meanwhile, Aldi has brought back a range of flavours from across the pond just in time for BBQ season.
