A rare Nestle chocolate, similar to a discontinued favourite, has been spotted in Home Bargains stores across the UK.

Nestle is well known for a wide range of chocolate products, including Smarties, Quality Street, KitKat, and Milkybar.

However, several products have been discontinued from the confectionery company's range recently, including:


Discontinued UK chocolates and sweets

Nestlé also discontinued Animal Bars in November 2023, after more than 60 years, due to declining sales.

They were spotted on sale at B&M in early 2024 for a limited time, but haven't been seen since.

However, chocolate fans believe they have found a replacement for the discontinued Animal Bar.

Nestle Jungly is a chocolate bar imported from Spain that can be found at Home Bargains.

The retailer's website describes the bar as "a fun and nostalgic milk chocolate tablet made with smooth, creamy Nestlé milk chocolate and studded with crunchy biscuit pieces".

Nestle Jungly chocolate bars, which come in both milk and white chocolate, appeared on social media in July and August last year, with shoppers comparing them to the Animal Bars.

One person, posting on Facebook group Snack Reviews, said: "These remind me of animal bars haha."

Another added: "I bet these are like massive animal bars."

Now, Nestle Jungly chocolate bars are back again at Home Bargains, on sale for £1.49.

Shoppers who have tried the Spanish chocolate bars have raved about them, describing them as "amazing" and "the nicest chocolate ever".

This fan, also commenting on Snack Reviews, wrote: "We had these on holiday in the shop by our hotel in Spain, was the nicest chocolate I’d ever had.

"We searched all over for some more and in the airport to stock up for home, I could cry rn."
