Galaxy has launched two new chocolate bar flavours: Galaxy Millionaire Crumble and Galaxy Cinnamon Swirl. The 160g bars are now available in Iceland and The Food Warehouse, and also appear to be available in select Spar stores in Scotland.
Fans react to the new flavours
Both bars feature flavoured biscuit chunks in the centre, alongside the smooth and creamy signature chocolate recipe. TikToker Nayn (@real.nayn) tried the cinnamon swirl flavour and said: 'I'm officially obsessed. As soon as I heard cinnamon, I flew to Iceland… Lord have mercy… this is banging.'
Others were equally keen. One fan on Facebook wrote: 'These need to get in my belly.' Another added: 'We love anything cinnamon, so can't wait to see what it tastes like.' Someone else commented: 'That millionaire one looks amazing!'
Availability and price
While the bars are not listed as part of the official Galaxy collection on the Mars website, multiple fans have posted pictures and videos of the new additions. The bars are being sold in Spar for £3.39.
Since its launch in 1960, Galaxy has grown to have an iconic range, including Minstrels, Galaxy Ripple, and flavours like Galaxy Cookie Crumble and Smooth Caramel. In 2021, Galaxy Smooth Orange hit the shelves, and in 2020 the chocolate maker launched a limited edition Chocolate Cookie Crumble spread.
Permanent or limited edition?
It is not clear if the millionaire crumble and cinnamon swirl flavours are a permanent fixture in the Galaxy collection. Galaxy's Truffle Celebrations have been sorely missed since being removed from the famous sharing box in 2011, although the mini Twix that replaced them seems to have been a hit.
In more news, fans have found sharing packs of discontinued Opal Fruits on sale once again at Poundland, Home Bargains and B&M, priced at £1, 99p and 95p respectively. The last time Opal Fruits — which debuted in 1960 — returned, Florence McGivern, Skittles' senior brand manager, commented: 'The nostalgia trend continues to resonate strongly with consumers, and we are giving them the chance to reconnect with memories from that time.' The sweets have been known as Starburst since 1998.
