Cadbury Dream bars have made a return
Dream bars, made from white chocolate and cocoa butter, were launched in the UK in 2001 but discontinued just a year later.
A shopper shared their discovery on the Facebook group Food Finds UK, posting a photo of the sweets for sale at a discount store.
One commenter tagged a friend, saying: "You used to love Dream chocolate when we were younger."
The iconic Dream white chocolate bars made a comeback in 2020, appearing in select UK stores including B&M.
Before the B&M relaunch, UK shoppers could only buy Dream online from GB Gifts, who imported the bars from Australia for £5.99.
Chocolate fans have also spotted other classic treats returning to shelves this month.
The Wham Bar is back - but as an ice lolly - now available at Iceland stores.
First launched in the 1980s by Scottish confectioners McCowan's, Wham Bars once sold 30 million bars a year.
After McCowan's went into administration in 2011, Tangerine Confectionery took over the brand.
One shopper posted on the NewfoodsUK Facebook group: 'Wham Ice Cream Lollies are back at Iceland Foods.'

The Wham ice lollies are exclusive to Iceland, with a four-pack priced at just £2.50.
Meanwhile, Cadbury Dairy Milk Balls - said to be similar to the discontinued Cadbury Tasters from the mid-2000s - have been spotted at Iceland for £3.50, or two packs for £6.
Marmite Peanut Butter has also made a comeback, just nine months after being axed.
Originally launched in 2019, then discontinued five years later, Unilever has now confirmed the spread is back for good.
It's available at Tesco, Sainsbury's and Ocado.
How to save money on chocolate
We all love a bit of chocolate from now and then, but you don't have to break the bank buying your favourite bar.
Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how to cut costs...
Go own brand - if you're not too fussed about flavour and just want to supplant your chocolate cravings, you'll save by going for the 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.
