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.

Man charged after ‘serious assault’ of police officers in Manchester city centre
Emily Sergeant
A man has been charged after several police officers were seriously assaulted in Manchester city centre earlier this week.
At around 4:55pm on Tuesday 12 May, officers from Greater Manchester Police‘s (GMP) city centre policing team were patrolling in the Denmark Road area of central Manchester when a man spat at a marked police vehicle as it drove past.
Officers stopped to speak with the man, but he then produced a knife and proceeded to attack them.
During the distressing incident, one officer was slashed in the face and neck and sustained serious injuries in the process, while two other officers were also assaulted and suffered minor injuries.
The offender – who GMP has now formally named as 40-year-old Dwayne Roxbrough – was arrested on suspicion of assaulting an emergency worker, possession of a bladed article, and possession of Class B drugs, and at this time, he remains in custody for questioning.

It has now been confirmed that Roxbrough has been charged with Section 18 wounding, two counts of possession of a knife in a public place, possession of a controlled Class B drug, Section 47 assault, and the assault of an emergency worker.
He is due to appear at Manchester and Salford Magistrates Court today (Thursday 14 May).
“Our officers put themselves in harm’s way every day to protect the public and this was a violent and potentially life-threatening attack,” commented Detective Superintendent Ian McNabb, from GMP’s City of Manchester district.
“No one should go to work fearing violence and our officers are no exception.
“We are treating this matter with the utmost seriousness and will work tirelessly to ensure the offender is brought to justice.”

Traders to move out of Manchester food hall as it pivots to ‘new chapter’
Daisy Jackson
Manchester food hall New Century will be closing its kitchens, it has announced, making way for a ‘new chapter’.
The New Century Kitchens are home to some top local food traders, including Parmogeddon’s Fricken concept, Wholesome Junkies, and Ply Pizza.
The food hall opened in 2022 as part of the iconic music venue’s rebirth, creating a modern mid-century space with six kitchens.
In the years since, it’s welcomed a rotation of amazing food offerings, including Hip Hop Chip Shop, Banh Vi, and Zumuku Sushi.
Now, New Century Kitchens has announced it will be ‘evolving’ to make live events part of the offering across the venue – not just upstairs in the main gig space.
That means that the traders currently based here will be moving out, though the venue has assured people that they have been supported as they take their next steps.
New Century said that music is in the building’s ‘DNA’ and this chapter will reflect that.

In a statement shared with The Manc, they said: “The ground floor at New Century is evolving. We are currently finalising plans for live events to become an even bigger part of our offering across the whole of the venue.
“As part of this evolution the current community of independent traders are moving onto exciting new chapters, and we have been working very closely with them to support all of these brilliant businesses in their next steps.
“Music is in the DNA of our iconic building and this new chapter will reflect that.
“New Century is a place for people to come together through entertainment and good hospitality and we’re looking forward to sharing more details soon.”
