A new Cadbury chocolate bar is available in B&M stores - and it's never been sold in the UK before.

Moro Gold bars have been spotted on the popular retailer's shelves, with the sweet treat having been imported from Australia.

The bar contains a chocolate-flavoured centre with crunchy biscuit pieces, surrounded by caramel and covered in delicious Cadbury milk chocolate.

According to reports, the tasty new treat is available for just £1.

Moro hasn't previously been sold in the UK, but it has been on sale in Ireland.

Available from the 1980s, the original Cadbury Moro bar consisted of nougat, shortcake biscuits and caramel, all coated in Cadbury chocolate.

A peanut version of Moro was then released in 2006, with a limited-edition coconut flavour following in 2007.

Moro bars were sold in Ireland until 2015, when they were rebranded as Boost in 2015.

Boost bars have been sold in the UK since 1985, and remain a popular option among Cadbury fans.

Whilst Moro is no longer sold in Ireland, the bar is available in Australia, New Zealand and the Middle East.

Under a post by the Food Finds Official page on Facebook, many chocolate lovers shared their thoughts on the bar.

One person said: "It's better than a boost... bigger and a bit more caramel."

Someone else said: "Got this the other day - Australia's version of the Boost bar.

"Taste exactly the same."

Cadbury launches new twist on classic chocolate bars

Cadbury Dairy Milk Grab & Go bars were made available in July as part of a new launch from Cadbury.

Shoppers were given the option of resealable 56g bars in three flavours: Dairy Milk, Dairy Milk Marvellous Creations, and Dairy Milk Chopped Fruit & Nut.

Intended for portability, the bars are designed to be portioned and enjoyed throughout the day rather than eaten all at once.

The new bars are priced at £1.29 and are positioned alongside Cadbury's Duo range.
