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!

I've been picked too. The DC are beside themselves with the excitement of it all. Grin

FuzzyCustard · 30/07/2017 11:51

I'm not in (as in no email) Irrationally disappointed.
I'd like to win something anything really!

Bufferingkisses · 30/07/2017 17:51

I'm really confused, I have got a parcel with goodies and 1 can of fanta but I've not had an email?

HQ please can you contact me to ensure my details are correct? I'm worried I'll miss the link to the feedback threads. Thank you :-)

VeganCow · 30/07/2017 19:24

Got my stuff yesterday, thank you. Almost thought the little rubber Fanta bottle was actually an eraser Grin, its a memory stick!!

Supermagicsmile · 30/07/2017 21:44

Oh I'm so upset! Would have loved a Fanta shaped memory stick! :(

InMySpareTime · 01/08/2017 08:38

I got the email but no Fanta yet Sad

OhWhatFuckeryIsThisNow · 01/08/2017 08:49

I got the email too, but no goodies yet.

DurhamDurham · 01/08/2017 17:17

No Fanta here as yet, I hadn't realised how much I was looking forward to it until I got home to find it hadn't arrived Grin

AnneOfCleavage · 01/08/2017 20:45

Nothing arrived so far for me either. Sad

TheFlyingFauxPas · 01/08/2017 21:20

Oooh. We get goodies? 😃 I'm in too. Got email but no box yet.

eightyeightmilesperhour · 02/08/2017 10:42

We received our pack yesterday. It wasn't what we were expecting. I thought we may get more than one can of Fanta so the family could test the drink (and we could also test out the Candice recipe). Or possibly a voucher to buy more cans maybe?

I don't want to sound ungrateful or anything...really appreciate being chosen. Thank you for the cool memory stick - we loved it. Also got a pen and notepad.

aristocat · 02/08/2017 11:47

I'm also in but no Fanta yet ☹️
Can't wait to get it!

VeganCow · 02/08/2017 14:14

eightyeightmilesperhour same, I loved the goodies, but was surprised that the three of us had to share one can between us, 110 ml precisely, so rather difficult to assess taste etc on that amount Grin Would have liked to try it with food, when thirsty etc.

OhWhatFuckeryIsThisNow · 02/08/2017 17:21

One can? (Again not wanting to seem ungrateful) but that's not going far. I kind of envisaged a six pack. Still not got mine.

VeganCow · 02/08/2017 17:41

yes, one can. We shared it, we drank it, but couldnt say for sure what I think of it. It was out of a glass too, I like to drink mine out of the can.

FuzzyCustard · 02/08/2017 18:36

Why didn't they pick me? WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY??????

MumIsRunningAMarathon · 03/08/2017 23:28

Not got mine either!

onadifferentplanet · 04/08/2017 00:09

Had an email but nothing received here either. Having looked at the cake recipe, that will leave about 50ml each left for testing!

500internalerror · 04/08/2017 17:17

I have a pack but no email...hopefully I won't miss the feedback link...

Kbear · 04/08/2017 22:29

I had an email saying I was picked but no delivery yet. I have hyped up the teens for FantaFest tasting session but if it's only one can I'll tell them to stand down.....

MummyBtothree · 05/08/2017 15:23

Just came back off my hols hoping to find a parcel left at the PO for me but mines not arrived yet either. I'm a bit dubious about the trials now as I was chosen for the Moshi Monsters trial & never received anything at all.

OhWhatFuckeryIsThisNow · 05/08/2017 23:17

IT comes in a huge red padded bag. Dd has nicked the memory stick, pen but graciously left me notebook. I was disappointed to see its still got artificial sweetener in.bet that overpowers everything. Why don't companies take a tip from fever tree and just cut down sugar?

WinifredAtwellsOtherPiano · 07/08/2017 10:13

Mine hasn't arrived yet either.

ASDismynormality · 07/08/2017 11:59

Is there a feedback thread yet?

Bufferingkisses · 07/08/2017 12:27

I was just going to ask the same thing. I'm guarding my 1 can from the dc until the thread is up but it's getting harder Grin
