Cadbury confirms flavour of mystery bars after months of guessing by chocoholics

The wait is finally over - Cadbury has finally announced the two mystery flavours of its newest chocolate bars.

The launch of Cadbury mystery flavour chocolate bars sparked lively debate on social media during the summer, with thousands tickling their taste buds at the unusual treats. The Mirror reports that the lucky correct guessers could be in with a chance to bag £5,000.

The flavours have now been revealed by Cadbury, and they are likely to still be liked by a wide majority. The first flavour is rhubarb and custard, while the second is blue raspberry slushie.

Two lucky winners will receive a prize following the draw. More than 300,000 people took part in the competition, but lots failed to guess right. Only 6,861 guessed the flavour of the two bars correctly, and have all been entered into a draw to win some stunning prizes.

Pippa Rodgers, Cadbury Brand Manager said: "We have been blown away by the widespread excitement and conversation around the Cadbury Mystery Bars competition.

"It has been difficult trying to keep the flavours under wraps over summer, so we are delighted to be revealing the flavours to the nation and can’t wait to hear how excited our two lucky prize winners are!"

Londoners submitted the highest number of correct answers, with Birmingham and Manchester locals in joint second place. In a bid to guess the mystery ingredients, some people offered up quite unusual suggestions throughout the competition.

Suggestions included:

  • Apple crumble
  • Bakewell slice
  • Rosewater
  • Pear drops
  • Turkish Delight
  • Pink chocolate mice
  • Blueberry muffin
  • Bubblegum
  • Black forest gateau
  • Knickerbocker glory

Throughout the six month flavour challenge, Cadbury teased fans by releasing clues on social media to help these chocolate sleuths crack the mystery. But don't worry, these bars are still available in stores nationwide while stocks last - so you can grab a bar from the shops.
