Calling all Lindt fans! The master chocolatiers have just revealed a special new product, and it’s a twist on their most iconic item.
We’re talking, of course, about the Gold Bunny, that’s a must-have at Easter time with its shiny wrapper and adorable little bell tied with a red ribbon.
Fans of the chocolate rabbit can now enjoy the product in a completely different form, as a Lindt Gold Bunny Chocolate bar has been launched.
The product is split into six sections that can be snapped off, with cute scenes featuring the Lindt Bunny on each piece of chocolate. It’s perfect for sharing, or simply indulging all on your own — we won’t judge.
Lindt UK shared the announcement on Instagram, writing: ‘Indulge in the enchantment of our iconic Gold Bunny, now in a luxurious milk chocolate bar featuring exquisite detailing and a charming embossed Spring design, crafted with the original Gold Bunny chocolate.
‘Find them at Lindt Chocolate Shops, online and at partner retailers.’
The Lindt Gold Bunny was first launched by the Swiss company in 1952 and was created by Rodolphe Lindt. It became an instant hit in Germany, before making its way over to the UK in the 1990s.
Since then the Bunny has had a few minor tweaks over the years, with different packaging and ribbon options being added, plus different sizes being released.
But this will be one of the most exciting changes to the range, and as such it’s no wonder chocolate lovers are already going wild over it.
Replying on a post on the @uknewestfoods account, @chocolate_momentsuk said: ‘Such a pretty bar!!’
While @danithedelaney87 commented: ‘Oh my god.’ And @zozo_marshall claimed they’d spotted the sweet treat in Asda for £3. Others have found it in Tesco and Sainsbury’s.

Similarly, over on Facebook in the Snack Reviews group Taighlor Jay proclaimed: ‘I need moreee. They’re amazing.’ And on NewFoodsUK Belinda Smith claimed they ‘look delicious’.
Sarah O’Gorman added: ‘I’ve had four in the past week, wish I’d never spotted them now, too nice.’
Others branded it ‘gorgeous’ and ‘cute’ and thought it was too pretty to eat.Karolina Aiken asking: ‘How can we eat this artistic creation.’
And if this chocolate news wasn’t enough, shoppers were also excited by the news that the KitKat Chunky White with Lotus Biscoff has recently returned to supermarket shelves.
The rare KitKat Chunky flavour is back in Tesco stores across the nation, for the next 12 weeks.
But don’t despair just yet – as it will finally launch in stores nationwide later this year.
Nestlé’s sweet treat, which first debuted last year, combines the signature chunky KitKat wafer with Lotus Biscoff caramelised biscuit crumb, and the whole thing is enveloped in a layer of white chocolate. Sounds pretty dreamy, right?
This isn’t the only treat Nestlé has in store for shoppers.As well as the return of the Biscoff bar, a new addition has also been introduced to the KitKat 4 Finger range, the KitKat 4 Finger White.
Available now, the smooth and creamy treat is on sale nationwide and will be available to buy until the end of 2024.
But some fans might be disappointed by its launch, as the limited-edition product is replacing the delicious KitKat 4 Finger Caramel, which was released in 2023.
Nestlé has also caused upset today after announcing that not one but two iconic products are being discontinued.
Breakaway bars and Yorkie Biscuit Bars are both getting axed in March 2024, despite being lunch box staples for many.
First launched in 1970 by Rowntree Mackintosh, Breakaway has been around for 54 years, and has been under the Nestlé umbrella since 1988, when they acquired the brand.
The biscuit bar is described as a tasty combination of crisp biscuit and smooth chocolate, made with 100% wholemeal, oat and coconut flavours to give it a unique flavour and texture.
According to Nestlé, a decline in sales is the reason for the products getting the boot.
