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.”

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.”

Manchester has been named one of the most ‘affordable’ cities in the UK – this is why
Emily Sergeant
A list of the top 10 most affordable cities in the UK has been revealed, and Manchester has made the cut for one very specific reason.
On a bit of a budget? Aren’t we all.
The cost of living crisis has been raging on for quite a few years now, and unfortunately, despite how much we all wish for it to, it doesn’t appear to be slowing down – with prices for everyday items, especially typical fridge and cupboard stables, shooting up by the day, even though supermarkets are showing efforts to prevent it.
And it’s the noticeable price increases in groceries that led delivery insurance provider, Street Cover, to uncover which UK cities don’t strain your food shopping budgets too much just yet.
As it was found that food and non-alcoholic drinks inflation reached 1.3% this past summer, a new study has revealed that Sheffield is officially the most affordable city in the UK, with several other northern locations on the list.

The study compared the 2026 Grocery Index for the largest UK cities with the UK average, as well as available 2025 Grocery Indices, to track the changes in food affordability.
The cities are ranked by the index difference from the national average – which is 67.3 – but the report also uses direct monetary values for a grocery basket to provide some additional context too.
Manchester took sixth place on the list, with an average grocery basket price of £23.08, while some of the other northern cities in the top 10, besides Sheffield at number one, include Liverpool, Leeds, and Newcastle.

As the only other North West city in the top 10, Liverpool may have come in third place overall, but the study found that the grocery bill here is the smallest in terms of actual monetary numbers – with it setting shoppers back £22.08 for a regular supermarket basket, which is a whole £1 cheaper than in Manchester.
“Data shows households in the North East of England have the lowest average food spend in the country, around 11% below the UK average, while Yorkshire sits 6.6% below,” Al Taylor, who is the Head of Street Cover, commented on the study’s findings.
“Sheffield’s position at the top reflects lower property costs for retailers, less competition from premium chains, and a supermarket landscape dominated by value-led options.
“The practical implication for household budgets is significant – the difference between budget and premium shopping can easily be £1,000 or more per year for a family, which can be spent on other things or saved for future plans.”

Mancs wanted to take part in a new series of the ‘hardest quiz show on TV’
Emily Sergeant
Call yourself a clever clogs? The BBC is currently looking for contestants to take part in what is widely considered the hardest quiz show on TV.
That’s right – Only Connect is back for another series on BBC Two.
Presented by Victoria Coren Mitchell and first broadcast all the way back in 2008, Only Connect takes TV quizzing to the next level, as it sees two teams compete against each other by finding connections between seemingly unrelated clues.
In this quiz show – which viewers have dubbed one of the most challenging there is – knowledge only takes you so far, as the ability to think laterally is also deemed ‘vitally important’.
A casting call for the upcoming 2027 series has been shared on the BBC website, with people from Greater Manchester encouraged to apply.

The casting call reads: “The popular BBC Two quiz show presented by Victoria Coren Mitchell returns for a new series in 2027.
“Only Connect is seeking teams of three players OR single applicants or teams of two looking for like-minded teammates to pool their combined wits to solve fiendish conundrums and vexing puzzles.
“This is the quiz series where, as in life itself, knowledge will only take you so far: patience and lateral thinking are also vital. It’s all about making connections between things which may appear, at first glance, not to be connected at all.”
Reckon you’ve got what it takes then? Applications are now open, and all applicants must be aged 18 or over and a resident in the UK or Channel Islands.
