Default What a disaster

Spoiler:



Fans of the caramel bar Caramac have been left "devastated" after Nestlé confirmed it is discontinuing the sweet.

Nestlé said it was "a difficult decision" but pointed to slower sales in recent years.

Caramac was launched more than 60 years ago, quickly gaining popularity thanks to its distinctive red and yellow wrapper and caramel flavour.

It comes as rival brands have launched similar "blonde" chocolate products.

Cadbury's, for example, launched its Caramilk range in 2021 and has since made various different spin-offs like Caramilk Buttons, while supermarkets Asda and B&M have launched caramel-flavoured chocolate bars this year.

News of Caramac being axed first surfaced on social media on Tuesday, sparking an outcry from fans.

On X, formerly known as Twitter, one said the news had "ruined my day" while another quipped: "Rest in peace Caramac."
