Cadbury shrinks size of iconic treat and parents fume over lunchbox

Despite the packets getting smaller, the price of the treat has definitely not been downsized Cadbury has shrunk the size of its one of it's most famous chocolate bars. Fudge multipacks have been shrunk with the chocolate giant blaming the cost of ingredients continues to bite. Parents have been left fuming - the packs previously contained 5 bars, not it will be 4, with one saying 'so we won't have enough for each day of the week in the lunchbox'. ‌ Despite the packets getting smaller, the price of the chocolatey treat has definitely not been downsized. At Morrisons, the five-bar packs still exist, with both sizes costing £1. ‌ Tesco is charging £1.40 for the smaller pack - or £1 with a Clubcard, while Asda has priced them at 98p. One shopper fumed in a scathing review on the Tesco website: 'Apparently these are no longer meant to go in kids lunchboxes any more because there are 5 days in the school week, not 4.' They added: 'The price hasn't changed though .' A second customer asked: 'When will it stop? Not a happy customer! Same goes for fudge bars.' And another said: 'Same price, fewer bars. Not good.' A spokesperson for Mondelez International, Cadbury's parent company, told Sky Money the decision had been made due to the 'difficult' economic environment. 'We understand the economic pressures that consumers continue to face and any changes to our product sizes is a last resort for our business,' they said. 'However, as a food producer, we are continuing to experience significantly higher input costs across our supply chain, with ingredients such as cocoa and dairy, which are widely used in our products, costing far more than they have done previously.' 'Meanwhile, other costs, like energy and transport, also remain high. This means that our products continue to be much more expensive to make and while we have absorbed these costs where possible, we still face considerable challenges.'

Everything you need to know about Tesco F&F's 25% off summer sale

We've got all the details on when Tesco launches its F&F 25% off Clubcard deal, and senior shopping writer Faith has picked out the top pieces to buy with the discount Get your shopping baskets at the ready because Tesco has officially launched its highly-anticipated 25% off Clubcard sale – and it's a good one. As usual you can shop the brand's big bargains in Tesco stores, but now thanks to the official launch of F&F's online shopping you can also pick up your favourite pieces online and have them delivered straight to your door. The sale includes women's, mens', children's and baby's clothing, and even includes pieces from F&F's celebrity collaborations like activewear from Kate Ferdinand 's range. Whether you're looking for some last minute holiday outfits, just want to add to your summer wardrobe, or stock up on staples, now is the perfect time to fill your basket for less. But with so much choice, it might be tricky to decide what to order. So, as our resident fashion expert, I've scoured the F&F sale for you to pick out the best bits that are too good to miss so you don't have to. Here's exactly what's worth adding to your order before the 25% off Clubcard sale ends. F&F Active Skort in Black Was £16, now £12. With Wimbledon due to start on Monday (June 30) tennis fever is about to hit the UK, and this activewear skort from Kate Ferdinand's range is perfect for getting into the spirit. Whether you want to practice your backhand or just want to bring a little sporty chic to your outfits, it's perfect. Was £25, now £18.75. Summer is in full swing and hopefully that means you're planning on jetting off on holiday some time soon. Even if you've just got a staycation or a trip to the local pool planned, a great swimsuit can boost your confidence and keep you feeling comfortable and secure. This sophisticated looking swimsuit has a flattering design and hidden tummy control, helping smooth and support your shape whilst looking chic by the pool. Was £39.50, now £29.62. Another staple in your summer wardrobe should be a white maxi skirt. Easy to pair with anything from swimwear to linen blouses and patterned crop tops, they're a mix-and-match dream. This cotton embroidered skirt looks far more expensive than its price tag (even before the discount!) and is guaranteed to be a piece you reach for time and time again. Was £22.50, now £16.87. No wardrobe is complete without some denim, and straight leg jeans are one of the most universally flattering cuts you can wear. They also lend themselves to plenty of occasions; you can dress them up for the evening with a fitted top and heels, or keep them casual with a T-shirt and trainers during the day. The F&F Edit Palm Print Bardot Midi Dress in Multi Red Was £25, now £18.75. A bold print is an easy way to instantly make your outfit look more expensive and elevated, and this red tropical palm print nails it. The bardot silhouette is perfect for showing off your bronzed shoulders on holiday, whilst the midi length and flowing fit keeps it breezy, comfortable and sophisticated looking. F&F Raw Hem Rigid Denim Shorts in Navy Was £18, now £13.50. Finally, a really great pair of denim shorts are an absolute essential when it comes to your summer wardrobe. The high waist and A-line fit of these means they'll be flattering on all figures and give you plenty of room to move, and they look just as good with a loose fitting linen shirt and sandals on holiday as they do with a band T-shirt and biker boots at a festival. You can use your Clubcard to save 25% off hundreds of other items across all categories for a limited time only, so you'll need to be quick if you want to bag the bargains. You can also shop plenty of other summer fashion sales with up to 60% off at ASOS, up to 70% off at New Look, and up to 50% off at Boden.

I'm a size 14 and did the best 25% off Tesco summer haul – run before new co-ord sells out, it's so flattering

Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A SAVVY fashionista has revealed the epic Tesco clothing haul she bagged in the 25% off sale - and urged people to run for a "beautiful" co-ord. Lara Mercer, from Scotland, regularly shares her shopping hauls and style inspiration on her TikTok page (@laralouisemercer). Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 6 Lara Mercer did a big summer clothing haul from Tesco Credit: TikTok/@laralouisemercer 6 Lara hailed this £39 co-ord as perfect for holiday Credit: TikTok/@laralouisemercer 6 The Scots fashionista predicted this co-ord to be a viral must-have Credit: TikTok/@laralouisemercer In a recent video, the mum showed off the "perfect for holiday" summer buys she picked up in the supermarket this week. Tesco's in-house fashion label, F&F, is renowned for its stylish buys at affordable prices. But Clubcard users can save an extra 25% on items if they purchase them before Sunday, June 29. Lara, a size 14, had only nipped to the supermarket to grab bin bags and coffee when she stumbled across the promotional signs in the F&F aisles. "Why did no one tell me there was 25% off?" she cried. "Obviously that roped me in, and there was so much [new things]. I didn't think there would be, I felt like I was only just there last week. "They had loads of sizes as well. So Monday mornings are a good time to go to Tesco guys." First up, she bagged a £25 black and white polka dot satin midi dress which she described as "just beautiful". She also found a gold sheer metallic dress for £19.50 that she insists is so pretty you'll want to wear it by the pool and at night time too. She gushed: "How beautiful is that? Oh my god. That on holiday, some chunky jewellery. Tesco fans are set to love the latest items in stores for 25 per cent off when you use clubcard "It's got this wee slip dress inside which is perfect so it's not see-through. So you could probably wear it at night as well. Obsessed. The colour is just everything. "Guys it's a win win any time that's on. It's just a bargain." Next, the Scots fashionista picked up a £22.50 cream crochet mini dress that she said would be the perfect day-to-night outfit if you "get a wee slip dress or Skims underneath". Lara styled it with a gold belt to cinch in the waist, and sized up to a large for a comfy look. But it was two summery co-ords that she was most impressed with. She bagged a £25 white maxi skirt with a black floral pattern, sizing down to a size 12, and matching bandeau crop top for £14. 6 Lara managed to bag her summer buys in the 25% off sale Credit: TikTok/@laralouisemercer 6 Her haul should have cost £151 but she saved over £30 Credit: TikTok/@laralouisemercer 6 Other fashion fans are loving Lara's picks Credit: TikTok/@laralouisemercer She hailed the outfit as "the perfect co-ord for your holiday", adding: "How stunning is this? I genuinely love it. "It's not anything I would ever wear, especially the long skirt. But I am obsessed. The print, the fit, the black and white. Oh my god, I want to scream. "How beautiful is that print? Oh my goodness. Love it. Love, love, love. "And it's got this stretchy material at the back." She also tracked down a pretty sage green high-waisted mini skirt and tie-front waistcoat, priced at £22.50 each. "Look at the colours of that. That sage green, all embroidered", she gushed. "This is going to be the new viral co-ord 100 per cent. It's stunning. And it's really good quality, it's lined as well. "This is beautiful, I can 100 per cent guarantee this is going to sell out so quick." Lara's haul should have set her back £151 in total, but she managed to get it for just £113.25, saving £37.75. She said: "When you've got the 25% off it makes a good bit of difference." And fashion fans were loving her gorgeous picks, with her video racking up 49,000 views. One gushed: "Love the waistcoat co-ord set and the swimsuit cover up, you have styled so well. Running to Tesco." "You look great in all of them", someone else added. Meanwhile, a third wrote: "You just keep finding better outfits." More supermarket bargains While you're in store, you may also want to keep an eye out for the £19.50 'chuck on' summer dress that is "gorgeous on" and comes in three colours. Fashion fans are in a frenzy over the "prettiest" £35 Tesco dress too - it's perfect for weddings and comes in on-trend, classy colour. Elsewhere, shoppers have fallen in love with Tu's Yellow Striped Tie Detail Midaxi Tea Dress, which is priced at £28.
