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!

PearlyPinkNails · 11/08/2017 21:45

Thanks Groovee, missed that bit.

Bloody DS has drunk it now.

Iwantacampervan · 12/08/2017 07:43

I asked teenage daughter's view of the Fanta and she said that it didn't taste any different. I'm glad that I've read some of these messages as I thought that the USB stick was a rubber - it seems as if I'll be fighting older daughter for the notebook etc.

OhYouBadBadKitten · 12/08/2017 10:04

oh!
I'd forgotten about this Grin have rewrapped it to give it to dd to see what she makes of it all. I had no idea I'd been selected.
I thought the usb stick was a rubber too.

OhYouBadBadKitten · 12/08/2017 10:06

I've checked my emails and no email. How odd!

Imagine if it had been a hoover or a washing machine we'd been picked to try and not got the email for Grin

24balloons · 12/08/2017 14:53

I got picked & Fanta & goodies gratefully received. The Fanta tasted a lot better than I expected. Son said it now tastes like Tango! I also ought the USB was a rubber, son worked it out.
I've not had a link for feedback

pigsinmud · 12/08/2017 18:32

Mine arrived yesterday. I am another who thought the usb stick was an eraser. I was puzzled by why it said 4GB on the packet! Haven't tried the fanta yet though. I'll wait for the feedback thread to appear before I drink it.

Feargalthecat · 12/08/2017 18:33

Mine arrived today, was worried it would never arrive.

clairethewitch70 · 12/08/2017 22:26

Mine arrived today. Is there a feedback thread?

Groovee · 13/08/2017 22:05

Ds has the USB, dh has grabbed the pen, Dd took the notebook. Just as well I love the bag 😂

Katz · 14/08/2017 16:10

Thank you mines just arrived - again not had an email. Looking out for the thread to post feedback

andbabymakesthree · 15/08/2017 09:35

Looking for feedback thread

Groovee · 15/08/2017 11:31

I've tried mine. Wasn't bad but seemed to lack fizz

WinterIsComingKnitFaster · 15/08/2017 11:34

It's arrived! DS has the notebook and pen, DD has the USB stick. I've told them to lay off the can because we may need to cook with it...

DurhamDurham · 15/08/2017 18:09

My pack has arrived too, I'll be reusing the red bag to post a jacket I've just sold on eBay.

Our girls have already nabbed the goodies but I've kept hold of the can so I can do and full, frank and honest taste test Grin

tapdancingmum · 16/08/2017 15:18

Mine has arrived this morning and DD2 (16) has already broken the top off the USB as she thought it was a rubber!!! Did I mention she is 16 Confused

Will try it later and report back.

How do you know if you have been selected to participate in a product test? Or notification of winning a prize? I have noticed that I have an inbox on my MN account, but no messages. What is the inbox for? I'm still trying to get used to mumsnet. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you. @mumsnetinsight

Groovee · 17/08/2017 06:42

@Amarjit2008 usually you get an email but this time I never got an email just the package through the post.

Groovee · 17/08/2017 06:43

The inbox is for your pm's to and from other members.

coldflange · 17/08/2017 12:42

Is there a feed back thread?

I received mine but no link to a thread to report back.

You will get an email from us if you're selected. Always worth checking junk/ spam as for some reason we sometimes end up there Sad

Oh okay. I worried that I had missed it as was away on holiday

500internalerror · 18/08/2017 19:24

But Ann, I didn't get an email, even in my junk. Will you link to the feedback thread here, not just by email? I don't want to be struck off your list for not feeding back Shock

dontpokethebear · 18/08/2017 19:34

I haven't recieved an email in junk or inbox @AnnMumsnet
