Another added: 'Tasters were the best!'

In recent months, there has been a flurry of nostalgic snacks returning to the shelves, including a rare Cadbury chocolate bar initially launched in 2012.
Crispello, a mix of wafer and chocolate, had only been available abroad until recently, when shoppers were quick to spot it in B&M.
The bars were being sold in individual packs, each containing four separate chocolate-covered crispy wafer shells with a creamy chocolate filling, for just 49p.

BBC Death in Paradise's 'favourite' detective set to join spin-off as star drops clue
Death in Paradise favourite Kris Marshall has teased a stint in the show's Australian spin-off Kris Marshall, famed for his role in Death in Paradise, has expressed his willingness to make a cameo in the show's Aussie spin-off, Return to Paradise. Kris stepped into Ben Miller's shoes as the lead sleuth when Ben's character, Richard Poole, met his untimely demise. He portrayed Detective Humphrey Goodman until he left the series at the end of season six, choosing to chase his romance with Martha Lloyd (portrayed by Sally Bretton) back to London. Their romantic tale didn't end there; it carried on in the Death in Paradise spin-off, Beyond Paradise, where they relocated to Devon to be closer to Martha's mother. Despite being content with his current role in Beyond Paradise, Kris hasn't ruled out a potential appearance in Return to Paradise, which features its first female protagonist and has been greenlit for a second run. Anna Samson plays the lead as Mackenzie Clarke, the spin-off's inaugural female detective, reports the Express. Chatting with Woman's Day Magazine about the possibility of joining the Australian venture, Kris remarked, "In the future, I'm definitely not ruling it out, no." He teased: "Never say never." Should Kris join the cast, he wouldn't be the first Death in Paradise detective to cross over, as Ardal O'Hanlon graced the first series of the spin-off. Ardal returned as Detective Jack Mooney, taking on the role of Mackenzie's superior from London, and is rumoured to be making a comeback for the second series of the Aussie drama. The worlds of Death in Paradise and Beyond Paradise have intertwined previously. In the first series of Beyond Paradise, fans were treated to Humphrey Goodman's return to the Caribbean alongside Martha. Viewers were ecstatic to witness the inaugural meeting between Humphrey and Detective Neville Parker. While showrunners haven't confirmed another crossover, with production for Return to Paradise in full swing, the prospect of Humphrey Goodman making an appearance is tantalising. Kris Marshall's recent jaunt to Australia has sparked speculation among fans that he might pop up in Return to Paradise. A fan speculated on a Facebook fan page: "I wonder what Humph's doing here in Australia? Perhaps a Return to Paradise cameo." Another enthusiast responded: "That would be spectacularly awesome - DI Goodman in Return to Paradise - with DI Mooney - hope so!". A third chimed in: "Yes, my favourite detective, this needs to happen." For those eager to catch up, Death in Paradise is available for streaming on BBC iPlayer.
