EAGLE-EYED shoppers have spotted a rare Cadbury chocolate bar in B&M stores.
The Cherry Ripe Berry Truffle bars are back on shelves at the bargain store and shoppers say they are “banging”.
Cadbury’s Cherry Ripe chocolate bars are popular in Australia, and B&M has been known to stock treats from down under.
The Berry Truffle version of the bar is described as “one bar of luscious cherries and coconut with blackcurrant flavour in old gold rich dark chocolate sprinkled with coconut”.
A shopper shared their find on the Snack Reviews Facebook page, telling other food lovers: “Cherry Ripe Berry Truffle chocolate bars back at B&M.”
One commenter on the post said: “These are amazing.”
Another described the sweet treats as “banging”.
However they do appear to have divided opinion, with one social media user saying: “Meh…had one at weekend can’t taste cherry.”
A pack of three is selling for £10.99 on eBay.
The chocolates were also spotted on B&M shelves back in November.
At the time, shoppers on the Treatsinstore Instagram page said the treats were “lovely” and they wished they had bought more.
Around the same time, B&M was also stocking the original Cherry Ripe chocolate bar.

What other Aussie chocolates can you get at B&M?
As we mentioned, B&M loves stocking sweet treats from down under.
These chocolates are rarely found in UK shops so they’re especially appealing for shoppers – including Aussies who might want a taste of home.
Dairy Milk raspberry bars are among the Aussie treats sometimes stocked by the discount retailer.
Cadbury’s mint-flavoured twirl has appeared on shelves too.
Customers can also get their hands on the Aussie Treat Box, which is stuffed with a selection of Cadbury and Mars delights.
Among the mix is the Twirl Caramilk, which has a blonde chocolate centre and is coated in Cadbury Dairy Milk chocolate.
There’s also the Scorched Peanut Bar, which is a traditional Australian snack.
Shoppers also go wild for the Peanut Brownie Snickers, which has soft slabs of brownie and is filled with peanuts, layered with caramel and coated in chocolate.
The classic Dairy Milk and Freddo bars are also included in the £5 box.
