A "special" new Christmas-themed Tony's Chocolonely chocolate bar has been released in supermarkets across the UK, just in time for the festive season.
Tony's is already responsible for a range of popular chocolate bar flavours including milk caramel sea salt, dark milk pretzel toffee and dark milk brownie - which is a collaboration with popular ice cream company Ben & Jerry's.
The confectionery company has already added a new flavour to its range in 2024.
Eagle-eyed shoppers spotted the new Tony's Chocolonely Everything Bar in Tesco earlier this year.
Discontinued UK chocolates and sweets
The new Everything chocolate bar is made up of milk chocolate with caramel, pretzel, almond, nougat and sea salt.

Now Tony's Chocolonely has released a new Milk Chocolate Gingerbread Bar in the UK.
Talking about the new chocolate on it's website, Tony's said: "The holiday season is our favourite time of the year.. and we like to celebrate it in style with this special chocolate bar.
"Break out the Tony's tree and hang it on your own tree. Or just eat it right away, cause this milk chocolate with gingerbread cookies is sooo good.
"All I want for Christmas is yoouuu..!"
The new Tony's gingerbread chocolate bar is (so far) only available at John Lewis and Oxfam Great Britain shops, as well as on the Tony's Chocolonely website.
News of the new release had fans on Facebook group Newfoodsuk racing to their nearest supermarket to see if they could find the chocolate.
One person, commenting on the Newfoodsk post, said: "I need to try this!!"
While another fan added: "Have to keep an eye out for this one."
Other people simply posted "yum", "need" and "what!!!!".
