Cadbury has announced another new addition to its ever-growing chocolate family, and it’s only here for a limited time.
Fresh off the back of the return of the fan-favourite chocolate orange range featuring Giant Buttons, Fingers, and Orange Twirls, and the highly-anticipated launch of the new Caramilk range last year, Cadbury has announced the release of yet another new caramel chocolate treat this week.
And the confectionary company is set to give thousands of bars away for free today.
The new limited-edition Caramel Twirl has been inspired by the popularity of the Orange Twirl – which became Cadbury’s “biggest-selling single bar” after its launch – and it blends the Cadbury staple chocolate bar with caramel.
In a bid to control the hype around the release of the new sweet treat, the iconic chocolate company has been placed a series of adverts in unexpected UK locations over the last few weeks to keep the excitement limited to those eagle-eyed enough to spot them.

A series of ads on the River Thames that were partly submerged at high tide, a remote Welsh island, and Britain’s least used train station were some of the hidden locations.
The new Limited Edition #TwirlCaramel is coming. And it’s so limited that we’re hiding our ads to #ControlTwirlHype. If you find one, you get a free bar before everyone else.

But, how exactly can you get your hands on a free Caramel Twirl then?
Well, while there hasn’t been much given away on it all, Cadbury is encouraging caramel fans and chocolate lovers to tune into a live stream that it is hosting on its Twitter account at midday today if they want to be in with a chance of winning.
Speaking on the launch of the new limited-edition chocolate bar, Frederike Grohmann – Brand Manager for Cadbury Twirl at Mondelez – said: “We’re absolutely delighted to share the news that Cadbury Twirl hits shelves this month, but whilst we know how popular the bar is going to be, we want people to know that it’s a limited-edition bar.

“Over the past month, we’ve been asking superfans to help us keep it under wraps – but now the secret is finally out.
“We can’t wait to hear what the nation thinks of our latest flavour innovation.”
Twirl Caramel will then be available to buy in stores nationwide from Monday 6 June, and will set you back just 69p per bar.
You can tune into the Cadbury livestream on Twitter at 12pm today here.

Three tiny ‘chaos potatoes’ have been born at Chester Zoo and they’re so cute

Three tiny ‘chaos potatoes’ have been born at Chester Zoo… and they’re really flipping cute.
Born to parents Maris and Albert in late summer, the three rock hyrax pups – only affectionately known as ‘chaos potatoes’ – have just passed their first vet check with a clean bill of health, and now weigh roughly 350g.
Hyraxes are found across sub-Saharan Africa and the Middle East, where they live among rocky landscapes and are most active in daylight.
The litter includes two boys and one girl, and keepers at Chester Zoo have decided to give them potato-themed names – Russ, Spud, and Jackie.

Currently, the three pups are a fraction of the size of the adults, which can weigh up to 4kg, but despite their small stature, they have an unlikely relative.
Believe it or not, rock hyraxes are actually a part of the same evolutionary group as elephants, as well as sirenians, which are the family of aquatic mammals that includes dugongs and manatees.
“Hyraxes are one of those species that you have to look for, but once you’ve seen them, they are fascinating to watch,” explained Megan Carpenter, who is a Keeper at Chester Zoo.
“The pups are little chaos potatoes. They are much more energetic than their parents and sometimes get the zoomies, darting about and testing their climbing and parkour skills.
“In contrast, the adults often wedge themselves into corners and grip on to steep rock faces for hours at a time. They’re incredibly well adapted to living among rocks and are much better climbers than you might expect.”
