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.

Boyzone to reunite for exclusive New Year’s Eve special on the BBC
Danny Jones
2025 has very much been the year of the comeback – be it Oasis, Britpop fashion in general, or short bobs and pixie cuts – so it’s only fitting that we round off the calendar with one last reunion, as throwback boyband Boyzone are set to feature on a TV special on the BBC this New Year’s Eve.
Turns out ‘All That I Need’ to make a year memorable is a load of 1990s nostalgia.
Now, obviously, despite plenty of other music names enjoying a second renaissance over the past 12 months or so, nothing is ever going to be quite as big as the Oasis Live ’25 reunion tour.
However, if you asked us to guess which group from the era were also going to reunite this year back in January, there’s not a chance we would’ve said Boyzone.
Boyzone are telling us about coming back together for one final run in their most unforgettable concerts yet 🎤
After news first began circulating earlier this week, it has now been confirmed that musician turned presenter Ronan Keating will be getting back together with two of his former bandmates.
Joining the 48-year-old for ‘Ronan & Friends: A New Year’s Eve Party’, ex-Boyzone members Keith Duffy and Shane Lynch are part of an exciting live music lineup.
Other names include actor and singer, Shona McGarty, who recently starred on season 25 of I’m A Celeb, as well as fellow 90s pop artist Louise Redknapp and singer-songwriter Calum Scott.
The exclusive reunion comes after the success of the recently aired Boyzone: No Matter What documentary show.
Spread across three parts on Sky, the docuseries (named after their hit song from 1998) looks back on the career and journey up the charts back in their heyday, all the way up to the present. After seemingly striking a chord with fans and the lads themselves, it looks like they’re not done after all…
Yes, not only is the festive TV special going to see three of the original members performing alongside each other again, but
Here’s hoping that turns into a springboard for something even bigger, and we get a Manchester arena show sometime soon.
As for the programme itself, ‘Ronan & Friends: A New Year’s Eve Party’ will be broadcast on BBC One and made available on BBC iPlayer from Wednesday, 31 December 2025.
One in 10 Brits are fired or disciplined after their work’s Christmas party, new survey finds
Emily Sergeant
We’re in peak office Christmas party season right now.
With just a week to go until the big day itself is here, many businesses across the UK are treating their staff to night out to celebrate both the festive season and all of the hard work they have been putting in throughout the year… and as you can expect, these are usually quite eventful gatherings, shall we say.
But now, a survey by has shed light on just how ‘eventful’ they actually are, as a new survey has revealed that, apparently, one in ten Brits face some sort of disciplinary action or dismissal due to their behaviour at Christmas parties.
The study was conducted by After Drink, and included more than 2,000 participants.
During the research, it was highlighted that 89% of employees admitted to drinking alcohol at these events, Lad Bible reports – with 65% of these confessing that they drank “excessively”.

There are a multitude of incidents which could lead to disciplinary action in the workplace nowadays, but according to the survey, some of the common reasons following festive celebrations with colleagues included inappropriate comments (23%) and even getting into fights (21%).
16% of these incidents were because of drug use during the event, while inappropriate interactions with colleagues accounted for 14%.
Some of the legal reasons you can be fired from your place of work after a Christmas party include gross misconduct, drunken behaviour, and fighting of any kind.
Despite all these risks, however, Christmas parties still remain as popular as always, and a whopping 79% of respondents said they are planning to attend theirs this year.
