Quality Street set to launch huge sharing chocolate bars

In what might be the best news of the century, Quality Street sharing chocolate bars could soon be arriving in UK supermarkets.

Over the years, Quality Street chocolates have become somewhat of a cultural phenomenon here in the UK, with millions of families cracking out the iconic purple tin every Christmas.

But now, the time to enjoy the tasty variety of chocolates as big sharing bars could soon be a reality.

Food news page UK Snack Attack was the one to break the very exciting news, sharing two images of The Purple One and Orange Crunch sharing chocolate bars.

They wrote on their Instagram page: “The sun is shining, birds and chirping, and its only 232 days until Christmas! You know what that means? Its time to start leaking the Christmas Chocolate!

“No word yet on price / location as it is so far away!”

Very little is known on the chocolate bars at the moment, though it is believed that The Purple One and the Orange Crunch will be the only varieties turned into sharing bars.

The news of the new chocolate bars have been met with great excitement online, with many already keen to see the launch of their favourite flavours.

One social media user wrote: “Yesssssss we need the strawberry one too!”

Another commented simply: “I could cry.”

It is not yet known when the Quality Street sharing bars will be landing in UK supermarkets, though it has been estimated to be later in the year.
