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.
❤️this tweet to get clues about where our ads are hidden, and get notified first about a BIG surprise😉 pic.twitter.com/xFZqiDAryM
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.

TikTok star turned pop star Addison Rae announces gig in Manchester
Thomas Melia
Viral TikTok star and now recording artist, Addison Rae, has announced her first-everheadline European tour, where she’ll be paying Manchester a visit, and tickets go on sale this week.
After launching into the music scene back in 2021 with pure pop single, ‘Obsessed’, Addison made her pop star intentions very clear.
Since then, Addison has gone on to work with high-profile artists such as Charli XCX, who appears as a feature on track ‘2 Die 4’ taken from her first EP, ‘AR’.
Addison also contributed to the inescapable phenomenon of last year that was ‘Brat Summer’, appearing on the aforementioned A-list artist’s Brat remix album, on a reworking of the hit ‘Von Dutch’.
With more than 88.5 million followers on TikTok alone and north of 35 million on Instagram, it goes without saying that her legions of ‘Sunraes’ (yes, a real term used by some in the community) will be lining up to get tickets to her UK tour dates.
Now the singer is ready to take the world by storm, confirming a US and European tour following the release of her debut album, simply titled Addison.
This LP, which features standouts like smash single ‘Diet Pepsi’, ‘Aquamarine’ and ‘Fame Is A Gun’, has been met with rave reviews from fans and critics alike.
The fledgling 24-year-old American-born pop star is a big fan of the UK, so much so that one of the singles from this very debut album, ‘Headphones On’, includes a music video dedicated to frozen food retailer Iceland.
See for yourself…
Addison Rae is set to bring ‘The Addison Tour’ – her first on the continent and here in Britain and Ireland – to Manchester Academy on 30 August, with general admission going on sale this Friday, 20 June.
So, if you’re a fan, get ready to grab yours HERE.

More than half of Brits agree that dating apps should let you filter by height

A new survey has revealed that more than half of Brits agree that dating apps should let you filter people by height.
There’s no two ways about it, to some people, size matters… and by ‘size’ we mean height.
If you haven’t heard the news or seen the ongoing discourse on social media yet, dating app Tinder caused a bit of a stir when it announced last week that it would be starting to let its users filter their potential matches by height – which many have been quick to brand as ‘disadvantaging’ for those who are considered.

Despite this, it seems men and women are both in agreement, as a new YouGov survey has revealed that 56% of men and 55% of women think that dating apps should allow people to decide what heights are suitable for them.
In fact, the number of men (23%) disagreeing with this is actually slightly lower than the number of women (29%), even though it’s seen as more of a disadvantage to men.
While height has been the big talking point in recent days, there’s also a couple of other factors included in the YouGov survey, and it’s these that appear to have divided the public more in their responses.
Should dating apps let users filter by height? Most women say yes – and so do most men
Women: 55% say yes Men: 56% yes
Women who have ever used dating apps: 67% yes Men who have ever used dating apps: 62% yes
Just over half (51%) of men who responded to the survey support allowing dating app users to filter by how heavy their potential partner is, while this figure falls to just 36% among women, and among the younger age group of 18-29 year olds, 68% of women say they are opposed to it.
Men in that age group are also the most likely to be against weight filtering too, coming in at a 38% opposition, but nevertheless, 51% of young men still do tend to think it’s a legitimate metric for choosing potential partners.
When it comes to other attributes, the public tend to say that dating apps should allow users to filter people by their education level at 48%, but not by their income, which only 29% see as appropriate.
