New Cadbury chocolate in Iceland is look-alike of 90s snack
Cadbury Tasters were launched in 1996 and axed in the mid-2000s.
Their round solid chocolate appearance looked similar to a Malteser without the crunch.
The post on Newfoodsuk Facebook page about the new Cadbury Balls quickly caught the attention of fans, who shared nostalgic memories of the treats.
'These used to be called Tasters, loved these,' one user wrote.
Another added: 'Tasters were the best!'
'Tasters were my favourite as a child,' another recalled.
A flurry of tags of Facebook friends on the platform also led to people sharing their memories of the 90s and noughties.
One person said: 'Omg is it the Tasters from years ago?! I do hope so. Remember getting these with nan every Friday.'
'These were known as Tasters and we'd have them on the way to school,' someone else remembered.
'Omg looks like Tasters! Loved them back in the day. We need to find these,' one person tagged.
It appears that the look-a-like Cadbury Dairy Milk Balls are now available in Iceland stores along with other new varieties of treat-sized bags including M&M's cookie dough flavour and Cadbury Strawberry Bites.

Inside Coldplay kiss cam couple's 'affair' and their marriages now
The Coldplay kiss cam scandal has sent shockwaves around the world - and brought the two families of the CEO and the HR chief involved in the scandal into the spotlight The world has been captivated by the drama unfolding between now-former Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and the company's Head of HR, Kristen Cabot, after the pair were caught getting cosy on camera at a Coldplay concert. Mr Byron and his HR Chief, Ms Cabot, were spotted embracing each other at the band's gig in Boston, Massachusetts in a clip that has since gone viral across the globe. The pair, who are married but not to each other, were left red-faced after the camera pointed at them during the gig - and their reaction went viral on social media. In the video, Mr Byron can be seen quickly moving out of sight while Ms Cabot covers her face and turns around. Their reaction prompted Coldplay singer Chris Martin to joke that they were either "having an affair or just very shy". Both Astronomer employees were put on leave following the footage circulating online, with Mr Byron later resigning, and the company saying its standards had not been met. The scandal has rocked the lives of Mr Byron and Ms Cabot, but the real victims are their respective partners, Megan Kerrigan and Andrew Cabot, who appeared to be living the American dream in huge suburban homes. Coldplay kiss cam scandal: CEO's wife 'hiding' at $2.4m mansion 100 miles from marital home Davinia Taylor furiously denies affair after being mistaken for woman in Coldplay video Mr Byron is married to Megan, 50, who works in the education sector. The couple shares two children. Ms Kerrigan had been living what appeared to be a picture-perfect life with Mr Byron and their children. On Facebook, she had shared happy family memories, including a smiling group photo from a hiking trip, with the family dressed in caps and hugging by a creek, and another from a graduation, where Mr Byron and his two sons wore suits, with Ms Kerrigan in a dress and one of the sons in a graduation gown and mortarboard. That graduation photo was even her Facebook cover image - until recently. Ms Kerrigan first removed 'Byron' from her name, then deleted her entire Facebook profile on Thursday, wiping all the photos and memories she had once shared publicly. Now, Ms Kerrigan is reportedly at the family's $2.4million Maine mansion while holding crisis talks over the future of their marriage. She is said to be at their luxury property in Kennebunk, 106 miles away from their $1.4million marital home in Northborough, Massachusetts, surrounded by loved ones in the wake of her husband's indiscretion. Meanwhile, Kristin Cabot had recently settled into a life of luxury with her husband, Andrew Cabot, the CEO of a Massachusetts-based spirits company, Privateer Rum. Fewer than five months ago, the couple purchased a $2.2million seaside home in Rye, New Hampshire. Property records also show that Ms Cabot - formerly Kristin Stanek - was married at the time she sold a $1.8million home in Watertown, Massachusetts, earlier this year. Records indicate that the couple has owned another property in Rye since at least 2023. Mr Cabot's company celebrates his lineage, tracing his roots back to the original Andrew Cabot (1750–1791), a merchant, rum distiller, and privateer during the American Revolution. Public documents confirm Mr Cabot has been married at least twice before. A photo posted in April 2023 showed Mr and Ms Cabot looking loved-up at a birthday party. In the same post, Ms Cabot was seen wearing a blingy wedding ring - a detail noticeably absent during her recent cosy Coldplay concert date with Mr Byron. Ms Cabot had been listed as an advisory board member for her husband's company since 2020, according to her now-deleted LinkedIn profile. The kiss cam scandal also sent shockwaves through the tech world. Mr Byron had been the CEO of Astronomer, a fast-growing company in the data infrastructure space, recently valued at over $1 billion. In May, Astronomer secured $93million in Series D funding, backed by major firms including Bain Capital, Salesforce, Venrock, and Meritech. But the American dream quickly unravelled for both families and the company. On Saturday, Astronomer announced Mr Byron's resignation in a formal statement. "As stated previously, Astronomer is committed to the values and culture that have guided us since our founding. Our leaders are expected to set the standard in both conduct and accountability, and recently, that standard was not met. Andy Byron has tendered his resignation, and the Board of Directors has accepted." LinkedIn profiles revealed that Ms Cabot joined the business nine months ago in her role as Chief People Officer - with Byron posting glowing praise about his new team member at the time. The tech chief lauded her "exceptional leadership and deep expertise in talent management, employee engagement, and scaling people strategies" which he stated would "be critical as we continue our rapid trajectory". At time of writing, neither Andy Byron nor Kristin Cabot have issued a public statement regarding the incident.

M&S shoppers divided over 'strange' £3 fruit that's back in store
The 'rare' cross fuses two unlikely items together - with some people saying it was 'disgusting' and others claiming it was 'delicious' Marks and Spencer shoppers might have spotted a rare fruit fusion in the supermarket this week when shopping, which sparked a heated debate between fans. The juicy fruit mixes two summer staples together into one item that's a true trick for the tastebuds. The curious item was spotted in an M&S Food Hall by Facebook user Daniel, who runs the Snack Reviews group. He posted: "New from M&S, the Limelon. Looks like a melon and tastes like a lime had a tropical holiday." After making waves last summer (2024), the unique melon has made a comeback in 2025. Priced at £3, the fruit is available for purchase in-store or can be added to online baskets via Ocado. M&S described the fruit as "deliciously refreshing and tangy" with "a zesty touch of lime", suggesting it's "perfect for snacking on or serving with yoghurt for breakfast". Opinions were split on the hybrid fruit. While some shoppers described the Limelon as "delicious" and celebrated its return, others were less enthusiastic, dismissing the creation as "vile", reports the Mirror. One fan of the fruit said: "Would love this. I eat lemons and limes like they are oranges!" Another was curious, writing: "I'm intrigued!" A third shared: "I love them! I got a pack of two from Costco a couple of weeks ago for £5.99 but they were tiny! Need to get to M&S!" But, a critic claimed: "They are disgusting!" And another offered a mixed review, sharing: "Tried this in Costco once - sour like a lime but tastes like a melon. Very strange, one bite was enough!" M&S has been known for introducing quirky fruits like the Limelon to the UK. It follows on from past creations such as the Papple (a pear-apple hybrid) and white strawberries with a pineapple tang. What is a limelon and what does it taste like? The limelon is a small, round fruit with a smooth and glossy skin that has a light green flesh with tan seeds. These melons are currently grown in Murcia, Spain, but efforts are under way in other nations like Israel and Costa Rica to enable year-round availability. Speciality Produce has praised the limelon's "complex flavour". They describe the taste sensation awaiting consumers as "sweet, floral, and subtly fruity" at first. The spokesperson added: "In combination with the sweet taste, the melon's flavour also encompasses acidic, zesty, and tangy notes with lime undertones, creating a balanced, bright flavour profile."

Next Fortnite update release date – what to expect from update 36.30
Fortnite update 36.20 was a disaster for the game, but the next update is rapidly approaching and here's everything you need to know about the release date and what to expect Fortnite's upcoming update, the final one before the new season kicks off, is fast approaching as a grand finale for the Super Season. The latest Fortnite update didn't exactly go smoothly. Despite the Epic Games summer break being a positive move for the game's consistency, Fortnite update 36.20 experienced a significant delay that necessitated an official statement from Epic Games to keep players informed. Although the issues were eventually resolved, it's evident that the game was left in a tricky position after having to address offline problems during the downtime. This was a significant deviation from the norm, particularly as the game launched its hugely popular Blitz Royale mode and several new cosmetics without requiring any downtime. However, it has managed to get the game back on a more regular schedule. If we want additional content, it's something we have to tolerate – and now that we're back on track, the next update, which is expected to bring more cosmetics, map changes and more, isn't far away. So, when is the next Fortnite update? Here's what you need to know.

The forthcoming Fortnite update, internally known as the 36.30 update, is scheduled for release on Tuesday, July 29 at 1am PDT / 4am EDT / 9am BST. The date has been verified by trusted leaker @Hypex, and the time is an estimate based on the start times of the previous two updates. We're anticipating that the downtime will last for the same two or three hours that update 36.20 was estimated to, as we'd be taken aback if we had another prolonged period of downtime. What's in the pipeline for the next Fortnite update? By the time the new Fortnite update arrives, we'll have already seen the debut of the new Fantastic Four cosmetics, but that doesn't mean there isn't a lot more to come. Here's everything we can anticipate following the new update: via @ShiinaBR via @ShiinaBR via @Hypex via @Hypex There are likely to be more additions and changes to look forward to, but for now, this is the information we have at our disposal. The upcoming Fortnite update is believed to be the final one before the new season kicks off, so it's safe to say that the fresh wave of content will feel like a grand finale for the Super Season. Make sure you complete that Super Battle Pass while you still can.
