Hey there! I have some exciting news for all you Quality Street fans out there. Remember how disappointed we were when the Coffee Creme flavor disappeared from the selection? Well, guess what? It's making a comeback, just in time for Christmas! After a 20-year hiatus, the beloved flavor is back and ready to make your taste buds happy once again. And let me tell you, this is not just a rumor, it's been officially announced!
Last Christmas, Quality Street lovers had even more reason to celebrate when it was revealed that the Coffee Creme was back in town. And not just in one form, but two - in the festive cracker and advent calendar! You can find these at Waitrose and John Lewis, so keep an eye out for them. It's like a Christmas miracle, right?
But wait, there's more! The coffee-flavored fondant wrapped in dark chocolate, which was actually part of the original selection tin way back in 1936, is making a comeback for a second year in a row. However, there's a catch. You won't find it in the usual tubs at your favorite supermarkets like Tesco, Sainsbury's, Morrisons, or Asda. Instead, you'll have to make a trip to selected John Lewis stores in the UK, where you can fill up your own tubs at the pick-and-mix stations. How cool is that?
And that's not all. There's also a limited-edition Coffee Creme cracker and bauble available for all you die-hard fans. These are perfect for gifting or just treating yourself because, let's be real, we all deserve a little indulgence every now and then.
Now, I know what you're thinking - where exactly can I find these delicious Coffee Creme Quality Street chocolates? Well, I've got you covered. The pick-and-mix stations were launched yesterday at John Lewis' flagship store in Oxford Street, so you can already head over there and get your hands on them. That's 12 weeks ahead of Christmas, so you can start your celebrations early. And don't worry, other participating stores will be following suit in October, so keep an eye out for them.
But wait, there's even more exciting news. The tin design has been revamped, inspired by the brand's Halifax heritage where the sweets are still manufactured today. So not only do you get to enjoy your favorite flavor, but you also get a new and improved tin to add to your collection. It's a win-win situation, if you ask me.
For those of you wondering where exactly you can find the pick-and-mix stations, here's the list of John Lewis stores where they will be available: Bluewater, Cambridge, Cardiff, Cheadle, Cribbs Causeway, Edinburgh, Glasgow, High Wycombe, Kingston, Leeds, Leicester, Liverpool, Milton Keynes, Newcastle, Nottingham, Oxford Street, Peter Jones, Solihull, Southampton, and Trafford. So, if you're near any of these locations, make sure to stop by and create your own bespoke mix of Quality Street sweets.
Emily Grimbley, the brand manager for Quality Street, expressed her excitement about the return of Coffee Creme, stating that it's a fan favorite and they are delighted to have it back on the shelves for fans all around the country. And she's absolutely right, we all have our favorite sweets and now we have the opportunity to fill up our own mix with just the ones we love. How cool is that?
Lisa Cherry, the Christmas buying lead at John Lewis, also shared her excitement about the return of Quality Street, stating that it's something their customers associate with the festive season. The exclusive baubles have already been a hit, and they predict that the Coffee Creme and the limited-edition tin design will also be a big hit. So, make sure to add these to your shopping list this Christmas!
