There’s three new Cadbury Dairy Milk bars now available to get your hands on from shop shelves right across the UK, but only one can be saved for good.
Cadbury’s Inventor competition is back for 2020 and you can help crown the winner.
Beloved UK chocolate manufacturers Cadbury have launched a range of new Dairy Milk bars that have been specially designed by fans, but only one of the three can stick around for good and it’s up to the British public to try each one out for size and cast their votes.
The three limited edition creations battling it out to join the Dairy Milk range this year are – Dairy Milk Coconutty, Dairy Milk Crunchy Honeycomb and Dairy Milk Out of the Blueberry.

Gillian, from Northern Ireland, is the creator of the Dairy Milk Coconutty and was inspired by her children’s love for fresh coconut and white chocolate. She thought the delicious combination would be sure to tickle the taste buds of any coconut fan and the bar includes milk chocolate with coconut crumble, studded with smooth white crisp pearls.

Gillian said: “My children and I are big fans of white chocolate and coconut.”
“After realising there aren’t that many white chocolate options in chocolate bars, the combination of coconut and white chocolate was formed to appeal to fresh coconut lovers who are dreaming of a tropical paradise this summer”

Shannon, from Nottingham, is the creator of the Dairy Milk Crunchy Honeycomb. Inspired after declaring her love for crunchy honeycomb and sweet caramel, Shannon’s bar combines milk chocolate and golden crunchy honeycomb pieces, with tasty caramel flavoured fudge and chopped hazelnuts to add an extra crunch.
Shannon said: “I’ve always had a love for honeycomb and caramel, which are my two favourite flavours.”
“The mix of golden honeycomb pieces and caramel flavoured fudge add that extra sweet flavour to the bar. Finally, with the addition of an extra crunch, chopped hazelnuts, I knew a winning bar was formed”.

Taylor, from Leeds, is the creator of the Dairy Milk Out Of The Blueberry. Her inspiration came from her son’s obsession for blueberries and the bar consists of milk chocolate with juicy blueberry flavoured nuggets and white crisp pearls.
Taylor said: “My eldest son is completely obsessed with blueberries and white chocolate”.
“His love of the two inspired me to create the Out of the Blueberry bar. The blend of sweet white chocolate and mouth-watering blueberries complement the milk chocolate to make a yummy snack for all to enjoy.”

The property has six bedrooms, six baths and five reception rooms – this mansion is a party host’s dream.

This isn’t everything the lower ground floor has to offer. There are a number of breakout rooms such as a wine store, cinema room and your own personal steam room.

Finally, if that wasn’t enough to draw you in, there is another flight of stairs leading to the second floor which is currently acting as the house’s ever-impressive storage area.
With the rolling hills of Saddleworth nearby and a local pub a ten minute walk away, how could life possibly get any better?

People are finally discovering this super easy money-saving food hack
Danny Jones
These days, pinching the pennies and protecting the pounds wherever you can is more important than ever, so we have no intention of gatekeeping this game-changing itsu food hack.
For the longest time, we’ll admit that we thought itsu was just another good place to grab some fresh sushi, Asian-inspired meals and groceries, but after learning of this clever little loophole, it’s probably up there with one of our very favourite chains.
Starting out in London back in the late 90s, itsu has gone on to become a huge franchise with nearly 80 locations nationwide and, naturally, the risk that comes with a food brand getting this big is the almost unavoidable problem of waste.
However, what was once just a conveyor belt in Chelsea has turned into a super-efficient restaurant and fully established food brand that has also come up with a great way to not only help stop food from going to waste but save you money in the process too.

Put quite simply, because itsu would quite rightly rather see food go in your gob than in the bin, they have a discount policy on their products that are about to go out of date.
Think Too Good To Go only more specific and with even more money off guaranteed.
Once the clock hits a certain time towards the end of trading hours, sushi, salad boxes and other cold food items can be purchased at 50% off their usual price to help save money and on food spoiling.
No, we’re not having you on: each and EVERY single day you can get highly-quality itsu sushi selection platters, rice and salad boxes, poke bowls and more at literally half-price. You can see the full details in their FAQs.
It doesn’t matter if it’s a random work night or a peckish walk home from the pub on the weekend, provided you go after 8:30pm and get there before they shut, you can grab some of your favourites at essentially a two-for-one rate. Sensational stuff.
You don’t even have to download an app, go up to the counter and have any kind of awkward conversation or anything like that: the digital pay screens will automatically update once the click strikes cha-ching and you can saunter out of the gaff with your scran.

We’ll be honest, we often end up getting double the amount we came for but who can blame us with a value-for-money offer like that? There’s also a 15% discount for students and NHS workers, by the way.
We know that might sound counter-intuitive when we’ve pitched this as a money-saving life hack, but it’s actually come in handy when grabbing not just a last-minute tea for ourselves but hungry flatmates too; plus we go home knowing we’ve done our little bit to help reduce waste.
Eating out can get super expensive, especially in Manchester city centre during a cost of living crisis, but let’s face it, we all fancy a treat sometimes and the thought of cooking is too tiring to even think about – that’s what makes stumbling upon little happy discoveries like these makes so great.
Now, we’re not going to pretend you’re the first people to know about this: the ‘secret’ is out and is gradually getting more and more popular, so you’ll almost certainly find a fair few people queuing up with the same idea come 8:30pm, but that’s kind of the idea. The more we spread the news, the less waste.
itsu Spinningfields is currently the only branch in Manchester (the first-ever Northern site to be opened by the brand back in 2016) but if you need some discounted food whilst you’re travelling around, you can find your nearest location HERE. Enjoy!
