Want to try new Fanta Orange? £300 to be won for feedback! NOW CLOSED

We have been asked by the team at Fanta to find 200 MNers to try the new Fanta Orange drink and to then share feedback on Mumsnet!

Coca-Cola Great Britain says: "We know that lots of you are looking to reduce your calorie and sugar intake and here at Coca-Cola Great Britain we’ve been working hard to reduce the sugar in lots of drinks without compromising on taste. Since 2005 we’ve launched 28 drinks with lower or no sugar and reduced the sugar in lots of our recipes. We’ve recently launched a new recipe for Fanta Orange with a third less sugar than before - down to 4.6g per 100ml from 6.9g sugar per 100ml – and when we tested the new recipe people told us it’s the best Fanta taste yet. We’d love to hear what you think too!

"As well as a new recipe, the Fanta also has a new look and logo designed to reflect Fanta's fruity, fun and vibrant nature. The new look is complemented by a revolutionary new spiral bottle (available on 2lt and 500ml versions) which twists the plastic to form a unique, eye-catching shape.

"To celebrate the launch, we also teamed up with winner of Great British Bake Off, Candice Brown, to create two delicious baking recipes which show you can reduce sugar and not compromise on taste. Why not try out Candice’s Fanta Citrus and Blueberry Drizzle Cake or her Fanta Oat Cranberry Cookies yourself!"

Selected testers will be sent cans of the new Fanta Orange and a range of Fanta goodies to try. We will then send you a link to a feedback thread for your views.

Everyone who takes part and who shares feedback as required will be entered into a prize draw where one person will win a £300 voucher for the store of their choice (from a list).

If you’d like to take part, add your details here

Thanks and good luck!

Its over a month now since we shared our can of Fanta in this house - any chance of us getting some more cans so we can fill in feedback properly Grin as I actually can`t remember what it tasted like (and only consumed 110ml as we split the one can between 3 of us)

MummyBtothree · 31/08/2017 16:25

Must admit I did like it & have been buying it since Smile

500internalerror · 02/09/2017 22:02

I think I'd have saved mine if I knew it was going to be so long for the feedback- I hope I can remember what I thought Confused

TwitterQueen1 · 03/09/2017 17:21

My 1 can finally arrived on Wednesday and I have to say the few slurps I had were certainly very refreshing after a day spent on the chemo ward... It was light and not sugary.

I would have liked more though! 1 can? Not enough! My DDs drank most of it! Though the USB stick and bag will be useful I would actually have preferred a couple more cans / bottles.

I would / will definitely buy it.

The amazing jazzy pink shiny envelope was quite something too....

Ginmakesitallok · 05/09/2017 14:35

Sorry. I've forgotten what it tastes like.

Bufferingkisses · 06/09/2017 08:44

What's going on hq? This one seems to be problematic - and I keep having to make pointless posts so that I don't lose the thread and miss the questions when they come Grin

OhYouBadBadKitten · 06/09/2017 09:33

I think there might have been a muddle and the drinks sent out to the wrong people.

AnnMumsnet · 06/09/2017 11:31

Sorry for the delay folks - we are trying to get things sorted - we will be in touch with testers soonest on email and I will update on this thread too. Thanks for being so keen! Flowers

WE had ours ages ago - was before we went away so end of July/beginning of August. Did think there might have been more than one can

Tortoise · 07/09/2017 08:42

Thank you for the update. I keep checking back in case I'd missed the email.

notapizzaeater · 07/09/2017 08:54

Snap - keep looking :-)

Ginmakesitallok · 07/09/2017 18:09

How hard is it to stick up an email???

HermanCakeDestroyer · 08/09/2017 17:31

I read this thread today to make sure I hadn't missed the feedback thread. I also got my lovely fanta goodies at the beginning of August!
Desperately trying to remember how good it tastes...I'm thinking due to the delay that a replacement can (or 4) may help us refresh our memories...!

Groovee · 09/09/2017 17:30

Just came to see if we could do feedback now.

Tortoise · 10/09/2017 17:23

Sod it, fed up of seeing the can waiting to be drunk. Downs can of Fanta

CalmanOnSpeeddial · 11/09/2017 16:45

I kept my can specially and haven't opened it. But DS loves fuzzy orange drinks of all types and has the attention span of a goldfish, so he's spent the last month saying "Ooh, Fanta! Can I drink it?" Come on HQ, how hard can it be?

madamy · 11/09/2017 22:51

Just searched as I was convinced I'd missed the feedback thread! Still have my can in the fridge - am amazed it's lasted so long already. This wait is really a bit silly for such a small product test!

LoudBatPerson · 12/09/2017 09:47

The can is still waiting in my fridge too........this seems to be taking an awfully long time.

SteampunkPrincess · 14/09/2017 13:35

any update on the feedback?

Tortoise · 18/09/2017 21:34

Any news? Hmm

AnneOfCleavage · 21/09/2017 09:08

Is there going to be a feedback thread now after so many weeks and most of us having already drunk it? I emailed MNHQ earlier this month but not heard back so not sure now. I do actually still have the can in my fridge god knows how I've stopped DH and DD from drinking it

Bufferingkisses · 21/09/2017 22:21

Yes, so do I. I feel a little like I'm guarding the crown jewels tbh Confused

InMySpareTime · 22/09/2017 07:02

We drank ours in July!

aristocat · 25/09/2017 17:32

Any news on this please Smile

CalmanOnSpeeddial · 25/09/2017 17:44

Come on HQ - all you have to do is say, Fanta's marketing people got bored and the person who was in charge of this project got a better job so just drink the stuff and recycle the can and we'll say no more about it.
