Has anyone else noticed that there is a new Quality Street?!

[ManonBlackbeak]

Was munching my way through a large tub earlier and noticed one in a turqoise wrapper that Ive never seen before. Tried it and its got a thick, runny chocolate filling but it tastes really synthetic and am not sure if I like it or not?

Wonder why they've suddenly added a new one after all these years?

I liked the square toffee and the peanut cracknel.

I don't like the new gold one

I did read recently that QS wrappers are biodegradable. Can anyone confirm if this is true or bullshit?

We hate Rose's, quality street and celebrations. The quality of them have really gone down the pan. The heroes don't seem too bad. We've bought the heroes tub and lindt lindor balls for christmas.

First Christmas in as long as I can remember for as long as I can remember that we haven't had any Quality Street. At all. Thank you palm oil.

The wrappers of quality street are the one redeeming feature. I hate the plastic packets that Roses have. I bought a tin of Roses because the tin itself was pretty, and the chocolates were a grim disappointment. Quality Street don’t taste much better but at least they don’t have the cheap looking wrappers

The new QS one is choc caramel brownie and is vile. There is someone on twitter who has been sharing pages from old Christmas catalogues including Cadburys ones. So many chocs have gone Roses used to have Noisette which was their version of the green triangle. And Almond Charm Id forgotten that one.

They used to really go to town with the packaging too.

What was wrong with the old tins and wrappers? I can still remember how lovely Quality Street and roses used to be, it does make me sad whenever I do buy them and the overwhelming disappointment. sad

I agree they are rubbish now, but a jar would cost £15.91 if the prices kept up with inflation. I know everything has become cheaper but if they want to sell big tubs for £4 then they need to put cheap rubbish in them.

Montelimar Almond Charm Noisette Brazilian Darkness mini Dairy Milk and mini Bournville are the ones gone from Roses and the original coffee cream which was dark

They all taste horrid these days, it’s the palm oil.

M&S don’t use palm oil and their tins actually taste ok.

agree they are rubbish now, but a jar would cost £15.91 if the prices kept up with inflation. I know

But I would pay that to have the old tins back with the original recipes and wrappers!

I really liked the brownie chocolate and secretly stole all of them.

Yes and it is amazing!

@hiphiphoorayback So would i Far rather that than ££££££££ for Hotel Chocolat or Prestat.

I thought Heroes were still called miniature Heroes but dh tells me that haven't been called that for about 10 years.

Waitrose own brand have a chocolate coffee cream - so that's my winner this year
