Jemma Handley, senior brand manager for Quality Street, said: "We are trialling a different shape for two of our sweets this Christmas season. We know how iconic Quality Street sweets are and we have made sure that it is the same great-tasting Purple One and Orange Crunch that people know and love inside their iconic coloured wrappers." The full list of stores taking part is as follows: Bluewater, Cribbs Bristol, Oxford Street, Cheadle, Kingston, Liverpool, Solihull, Southampton, Milton Keynes, Trafford, Edinburgh, Leeds, Nottingham, Peter Jones Sloane Square, Brent Cross, Westfield WhiteCity, Cardiff, Cambridge, and Newcastle. You'll need to keep an eye out for the tubs including the new Orange Crunch shapes because not all tubs will include them. If you're worried about these chocolates replacing the Caramel Crunch, don't worry, as this won't be the case. Better yet, the price of tubs featuring the newly shaped sweets will remain the same.

In November 2021, Quality Street asked the nation what their favourite retro sweet was. It was revealed that Coffee Creme was the number one most-loved retro sweet. The sweet gained 39% of the vote. It comes after Nestlé launched a brand new Quality Street Collisions bar earlier this month that left fans divided. The unique treat blends together two of the most popular chocolates from the Quality Street tins - The Purple One and the Green Triangle. It combines caramel, creamy hazelnut, and crunchy hazelnut pieces in three chocolatey layers and first appeared in Asda , although it is set to come to further supermarkets later this month. After more than 20 years, Quality Street fans can experience the indulgent coffee flavour fondant wrapped in dark chocolate in stores starting from 20th September at Waitrose. The Mirror reports that you'll only be able to get that specific flavour within certain Quality Street products, rather than it being a widespread return.
