Maltesers fans, the moment you\u2019ve been waiting for has finally arrived!<\/p>\n

The chocolate<\/a> brand, owned by Mars Wrigley, has just confirmed that the white chocolate version of the iconic treat<\/a> is making a comeback after 11 years. <\/p>\n

First launched in 2003, White Chocolate Maltesers were a fan-favourite before being discontinued in 2014<\/a> and people have spent more than a decade begging for them to return.<\/a><\/p>\n

And now the prayers of chocolate lovers across the nation are being answered, as the sweet treat will hit superm<\/a>a<\/a>rket<\/a> shelves once more next month.<\/p>\n

For those who haven\u2019t had a chance to try them before, the sweets feature the classic crunchy centre that we all know and love, coated in a thin layer of white chocolate. <\/p>\n

When they make their triumphant return, White Chocolate Maltesers will be available in treat bags, single bag and sharing bag formats from June 16. <\/p>\n

You\u2019ll be able to find them in major supermarkets along with independent retailers too, so you won\u2019t have to go far to get your fix.<\/p>\n

Prices for the products haven\u2019t yet been revealed, but retailers are usually able to set their own. <\/p>\n

A spokesperson from Mars Wrigley said: \u2018We\u2019re delighted to bring Maltesers White Chocolate back for the passionate fans who have been anticipating their return for years! Maltesers <\/sup>is all about encouraging people to look on the light side of life and so definitely try them if you\u2019ve not done so before.\u2019<\/p>\n
