With no artificial flavours, colours or preservatives, orange Smarties giant tube is a gift you can feel happy to give! Smarties are oblate spheroids with a minor axis of about 5mm (0.2in) and a major axis of about 12mm (0.5in). They come in eight colours: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, mauve, [2] pink and brown, although the blue variety was temporarily replaced by a white variety in some countries, whilst an alternative natural colouring dye of the blue colour was being researched.

SMARTIES were originally named 'Chocolate Dragée' when we first started making them in Rowntree's in York around 1882 - before being renamed Chocolate Beans, then finally SMARTIES in 1937. SMARTIES contain a creamy milk chocolate centre with a crispy sugar shell that has been at the heart of SMARTIES for nearly 80 years! SMARTIES are also available in a mixture of 8 different coloured shells - covering red, yellow, green, blue, violet, pink, brown and orange. Unique to the UK only, the orange SMARTIES are the only colour to contain a flavour - with the shell infused with natural orange oil.Barton, Laura (15 May 2007). "Veggies beware!". London: Lifeandhealth.guardian.co.uk . Retrieved 22 July 2009. Smarties are color-varied sugar-coated chocolate confectionery. They have been manufactured since 1937, [1] originally by H.I. Rowntree & Company in the United Kingdom, and now by Nestlé. People love their distinctive flavour and they are our number one consumer request. The giant tubes launched last autumn were sold out in some stores within a few weeks from the launch and we have been inundated with requests from people all over the country asking us whether they could still get hold of some. Unique to the UK and Ireland, Orange SMARTIES are the only SMARTIES that have their own flavour - with the shell infused with natural orange oil to give it its distinctive taste and they have been a huge hit.
