A third commenter mused on a potential recipe, saying: "an excuse to make a milkybar cheesecake". The excitement comes after Nestlé, makers of the Milkybar, announced in July that it was releasing a brand new sweet treat inspired by the iconic white chocolate bar. The new Milkybar Jelly & Ice Cream Rowntree’s, now available in supermarkets, are creamy Milkybar buttons paired with juicy Rowntree's jelly pieces.

In February last year, shoppers claimed a new Milkybar with caramelised biscuit pieces tasted "very weird" .

"Could be why it's so cheap?" How to save money on your supermarket shop THERE are plenty of ways to save on your grocery shop. You can look out for yellow or red stickers on products, which show when they've been reduced.
If the food is fresh, you'll have to eat it quickly or freeze it for another time. Making a list should also save you money, as you'll be less likely to make any rash purchases when you get to the supermarket. Going own brand can be one easy way to save hundreds of pounds a year on your food bills too.
This means ditching "finest" or "luxury" products and instead going for "own" or value" type of lines. Plenty of supermarkets run wonky veg and fruit schemes where you can get cheap prices if they're misshapen or imperfect. For example, Lidl runs its Waste Not scheme, offering boxes of 5kg of fruit and vegetables for just £1.
