Mondelēz International revealed it is not always the company's decision as to when festive treats are released in supermarkets.
It explained that retailers are free to choose when products appear on shelves, and "due to supply chain reasons, some products will be on shelves a little earlier".
A Mondelēz International spokesperson said: "Most of our range will be available from August 2025, through to Christmas and as long as stocks last.
"Due to supply chain reasons, some products ​will be on shelves a little earlier than that."

BBC Gavin and Stacey's Mathew Horne choked up as he announces colleague death

Mathew Horne, who played Gavin Shipman in the hit BBC comedy series Gavin and Stacey, was giving an In Conversation With performance when he received the sad news Mathew Horne was visibly emotional as he revealed to audiences that he'd just learned of a Gavin and Stacey crew member's death. ‌ The 46 year old actor, is well known for his role as Gavin Shipman in the beloved BBC sitcom alongside Joanna Page, James Corden, and Ruth Jones since its 2007 debut. ‌ While recently being interviewed on stage for an In Conversation With session in Taunton, Somerset, when he suddenly became overcome with emotion. ‌ The television star explained to the crowd that he'd only just received the devastating news through the cast's WhatsApp group. Horne revealed, via The Sun: "Sorry. I got distracted. Earlier on... we had a driver on the finale called Rob and he was in his early 40s... and I found out via the WhatsApp group earlier that he has passed away and I got slightly distracted there." ‌ He added: "It's really, really sad. I got distracted by losing Rob. He was a really lovely guy and he's left a four-year-old behind and that is really, really, really sad." Horne went on to explain how the entire cast and crew had formed strong bonds after nearly two decades of working together, reports the Express. He shared: "In 2019 before the Christmas special - part one of the finale if you like - aired, I lost my mother and Alison [Stedman, who played his onscreen mother Pam], really stepped up and she became my surrogate mother off screen as well. ‌ "Whenever she texts me even now she signs it 'Mum'. And that is cool. That is so beautiful. And she says 'How are you, my little prince?' It means the world to me.'" The final episode of Gavin and Stacey, which aired on Christmas Day last year, attracted a whopping 19.1 million viewers. The series, first introduced in 2007 by creators James Corden and Ruth Jones, ended with the long-awaited confession of love between Smithy and Nessa, who finally tied the knot despite several obstacles along the way. There has, however, been talk of potential spin-offs with other characters such as Dawn and Pete, played by Julia Davis and Adrian Scarborough respectively, keeping the spirit of Gavin and Stacey alive.

The ‘superior' 90s chocolate bar Brits wish Cadbury would bring back

There's no devastation quite like realising your favourite chocolate bar has been discontinued forever. And for the most loyal fans, a dupe just won't do. Now, the British public has spoken on the long-lost pick it wants to see return to shelves – and it's a creamy, minty treat that hasn't been seen in more than 20 years. A beloved (former) member of the Cadbury family, the Wispa Mint first hit shelves in 1995 – and though it was discontinued back in 2003, chocolate lovers have never quite forgotten it. Surveying 2,000 people across the UK, new research has concluded that the minty twist on the classic Wispa came out on top, as more than 1 in 5 (22%) said it was the long-lost chocolate bar they'd most like to see return. Cadbury has been known to experiment with its Wispa bar – but it hasn't always been a smooth ride. 20 years after it first launched, in 2003, the Wispa brand was briefly discontinued and rebranded as the Dairy Milk Bubbly. But after uproar from fans, which included a dedicated online campaign, it returned to shops permanently in 2008. Over the years, Wispa has taken many forms, including orange, strawberry, Wispaccino, and of course, the long-reigning Gold. In second place was Caramac, which was discontinued in 2023 after 64 years, while 1 in 5 (18%) still miss the Cadbury Dream, which was discontinued back in 2002. Shoppers previously went wild after it was briefly spotted in B&M, but now, the only UK alternative is the Cadbury White (launched in 2019). And if you happen to find yourself in Australia, New Zealand or South Africa, the elusive Dream is still sold there. A sweet combination of milk chocolate and white, the Cadbury Marble was selected by 16% of respondents to the Smooth Spins Casino survey, having disappeared from shelves back in 2012. In joint fourth was also the nostalgic Orange Crunchie, a tangy version of the honeycomb classic. It's no secret that chocolate fiends have long been lusting for the Wispa Mint's return. Over on the r/CasualUK Subreddit, @Gueld recalled the sweet snack being their 'go to' chocolate back in the day – even going as far as to label it 'far superior to an Aero.' @Loose_beef felt that Wispas in general are a 'criminally underrated' choice, while @ChrisRR called for the return of the Mint classic, labelling even the highly esteemed Wispa Gold 's*** by comparison.' Bold words. @charlotteypants has always felt they were 'epic' – and continues to 'mourn' the loss to this day. Meanwhile, @Yachting-Mishaps wondered whether the Wispa Mint 'needs to exist in a world that already has Mint Aero.' By way of reply, @iwasfeelingallfloopy reckons that the flavour in the Wispa was 'different (i.e. better)' and 'more of a creamy layer.' Though Cadbury hasn't confirmed any plans to revive the Wispa Mint, there are plenty of success stories where chocolate brands have decided to give previously axed favourites another go. First launched in 2003, White Chocolate Maltesers were a fan favourite before being discontinued in 2014. People spent more than a decade begging for their return, and in June, those prayers were finally answered as the treat returned to shelves.

They're now available in treat, single and sharing bar formats, both at major supermarkets and independent retailers. More Trending And, after Mars admitted that it 'made a mistake' and an online petition totalling more than 8,600 signatures, the Milky Way Crispy Rolls made a comeback earlier this year. A milk chocolate-covered wafer biscuit finger, inside, it's filled with light whip, and has been dubbed 'god's gift' and the 'best chocolate bar ever' by doting fans. The brand also added two new Crispy Roll flavours to the line-up, including Twix Crispy Rolls and Bounty Crispy Rolls. Do you have a story to share?
