Mini snack-size variations of Milky Way Crispy Rolls have been spotted featured in tubs of Celebrations by eagle-eyed shoppers at B&M this weekend and fans are already going mad for it.
Now, this really is a cause for celebration.
It’s long been disputed which chocolatey treat is the best of the bunch in the Celebrations selection, with many Brits often electing the Maltesers Teasers to reign supreme, but one thing’s for sure, the addition of Milky Way Crispy Rolls is sure to be a worthy contender in this race.
Milky Way Crispy Rolls – milk chocolate-covered wafer biscuit fingers with a lightly whipped filling – have been spotted inside of large tubs of Celebrations at multiple B&M stores across the UK this weekend and have been shared to social media with positive response.
The sighting of these new Celebrations tubs was shared on popular food-spotting Instagram account @newfoodsuk on Saturday afternoon.

The tubs also appear to be pictured on the shelves at B&M under a sign that confirm them as a ‘new’ product.

Since sharing this new-in product, the post has already gone on to amass well over 7,600 likes and hundreds of comments from people seeming very eager to seek them out for themselves.

One Instagram user commented: “The best news I’ve had all week”.
“The best addition” commented another.
These Celebrations tubs were also spotted and shared on Twitter by @morganbeckers with the caption: “Celebrations with milky way crispy rolls in B&M is beautiful” – which is hard to disagree with, right?
One thing’s for sure then, it sounds like there’s going to be a bit of a mad dash to B&M if you want to treat yourself and try to get your hands on a tub.
It unfortunately hasn’t been confirmed which B&M stores these Celebrations tubs have been spotted in, meaning that it’s probably going to be a case of keeping your fingers crossed that you can find them in your local branch.
Pricing of the product also wasn’t indicated, but we don’t reckon it’s likely to be a bank breaking purchase.
If you are planning on taking a trip to uncover these Celebrations across Greater Manchester, then it’s advised that you always check the opening times of your local B&M branch before heading to any store and you can do that via the store locator here.

New Mayor Bev Craig announces FREE bus travel for 11 to 16-year-olds in Greater Manchester
Emily Sergeant
Thousands of high school children across Greater Manchester are set to benefit from free bus travel next year.
That’s because Greater Manchester’s newly-elected Mayor, Bev Craig, set out plans on her first official day in office yesterday (3 August) to help families with the rising cost of living by extending the already-popular ‘Our Pass’ scheme to give 11 to 16-year-olds free bus travel on the Bee Network from January 2027 onwards.
The move is expected to benefit nearly 200,000 young people across Greater Manchester – saving families up to £500 per child every year.
Applications will open later this year, so families can apply for their pass in advance.

Greater Manchester’s successful ‘Our Pass’ scheme was introduced in 2019 and already gives 16-18-year-olds free bus travel to make getting to education, training, and opportunities easier.
But this new extension means that, for the first time, all children between 11 and 18-years-old will be able to travel for free on the region’s buses.
On top of this, in further support for families, Bev has also confirmed that previously-agreed plans to give free bus travel for children in temporary accommodation will be implemented from this September – with this extra support set to be administered by councils and be in place for the new school term.
First day as Mayor of Greater Manchester. I promise to work for everyone, in every town, village and city.
— Mayor of Greater Manchester (@MayorofGM) August 3, 2026
“During my campaign, I promised that I would apply a simple test to every decision I take as Mayor – will it make life better for the people of Greater Manchester? That’s why on day one I’m announcing the extension of Our Pass to give free bus travel to 11 to 16-year-olds,” commented Bev Craig as the move was announced this week.
“This is exactly the kind of decision that passes our test.
“It will put more money in the pockets of thousands of hard-working families, and gives those young people a ticket to all the brilliant opportunities our city region offers.
“Families across Greater Manchester are struggling with the cost of living and I’m using my first day as Mayor to do something practical to make life a bit easier. By launching in January, young people will be boarding the Bee Network for free as they head back to school.”

NHS urgently needs 500,000 men to take part in ‘major’ cancer research programme

Half a million men are needed to take part in a ‘major’ cancer research programme.
From this week, the NHS has announced that it will begin contacting 500,000 men to invite them to join a major research programme that will work to improve the vital early detection and treatment of prostate cancer.
Men who have had or are living with prostate cancer will receive letters and text messages explaining how they can register to take part.
It’s hoped that this will become one of the world’s largest prostate cancer studies.
Formally named ‘Prostate Progress’, the study is designed to speed up the development of better tests, treatments, and care – with the NHS aiming to recruit as many participants as possible to improve how prostate cancer is diagnosed and treated, as well as understanding the side effects of treatment and the impact they have on quality of life.

Prostate cancer is now the most common cancer in the UK, with around 60,000 new cases diagnosed every year and over 12,000 deaths annually.
Men who join ‘Prostate Progress’ will be asked to complete questionnaires about their experiences of living with the disease every few months.
Verified researchers will then be able compare men’s experiences of living with prostate cancer against their NHS records – including their symptoms and quality of life.
The NHS says it is ‘particularly keen’ to hear from black men for the programme, as they are at approximately twice the risk of developing prostate cancer – with around one in four black men in the UK expected to be diagnosed during their lifetime.
“Better representation will help researchers understand and address differences in diagnosis, treatment and outcomes,” the NHS said in a statement.
“Prostate cancer is now the most common cancer in the UK,” explained Health Minister, James Frith. “Every piece of data we gather brings us closer to the tests and treatments that future patients will depend on to live well for longer.
“Prostate Progress has the potential to become a hugely important resource, but only if men come forward and share their experiences, so I encourage anyone who receives an invitation to sign up.
“This is the kind of innovation the government’s National Cancer Plan is designed to support, making the NHS a world-leading destination for cancer research and ensuring patients across the country can help shape the treatments of tomorrow.”
