NESTLE has made a big change to an iconic chocolate bar recipe for the second time in its 87-year history.<\/p>\n
The food and drinks giant is cutting the amount of milk in its Milkybar buttons, blocks and bars.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The white chocolate will have its milk content decreased to 26.4% – down from 37.5%, says Nestle.<\/p>\n
The change to the bars marks a reversal of its decision to up the recipe's milk content back in May 2017.<\/p>\n
The move is aimed to streamline Milkybar's recipe across the UK and the rest of Europe.<\/p>\n
It comes after fans of the white chocolate posted on Facebook and speculated that the recipe had changed.<\/p>\n
One person said: "I've just brought a bag of the Milkybar buttons with the new packaging and can officially confirm they have gone back to the old recipe."<\/p>\n But not everyone has noticed the change with another person saying: "Oh I had some other day I didn't even realise lol I just love chocolate."<\/p>\n The new recipe Milkybar products are being rolled out in stores across the UK right now.<\/p>\n A Nestle spokesperson said: "Our Milkybar products are now being made from the same white chocolate recipe as we use throughout the rest of Europe.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n "Moving to this recipe means our balance of ingredients has changed.<\/p>\n "However, milk remains one of the main ingredients of Milkybar and the amount of sugar remains unchanged.<\/p>\n "In UK testing, the European recipe was the overall preferred recipe, scoring higher across flavour, taste and texture.<\/p>\n "We are confident that it will be well received by Milkybar fans in the UK."<\/p>\n Launched in 1936,\u00a0Milkybar\u00a0has been popular in the\u00a0UK\u00a0and Ireland for generations.<\/p>\n In fact,\u00a0Milkybar\u00a0is the\u00a0UK's number one white chocolate brand, according to Nestle.<\/p>\n Nestle says that the goodness of real milk takes centre stage in this smooth white chocolate.<\/p>\n And you won't find any artificial colours, flavours or preservatives in it either.<\/p>\n It's a firm favourite in Continental Europe and Latin America too, where it's known as\u00a0Galak.<\/p>\n<\/picture>XMAS BLOW <\/span><\/p>\n
