Whittaker's is releasing a new tropical flavoured block inspired by sticky rice pudding

Apparently it's so good they have already added it to their permanent range.

Whittaker’s has just revealed their new tropical caramelised white chocolate block.

Inspired by mango sticky rice pudding, the Mango & Coconut Block is just as it sounds. Filled with chewy mango pieces and toasted coconut. 

Whittaker’s Chief Marketing Officer, Soraya Cottin, says the new flavour is so delicious the team reckon “it deserves a permanent spot” in their range.

“We hope chocolate lovers enjoy this little taste of the tropics as summer comes to an end,” Soraya added.

We've been eagerly awaiting a new flavour since the Whittaker’s Chocolate Lovers Facebook page posted a teaser that “something new is on the horizon”.

Posting a picture of a lone mango appearing in a sunrise, we knew we were expecting some sort of tropical treat. 

Plenty of Kiwi fans made their best guess with some wondering whether it may be a mix of passionfruit or pineapple. 

With the release of pineapple-flavoured squiggles and the fruit appearing in Lewis Road's chocolate milk, I was pleasantly surprised to know that it hadn’t made its way into yet another favourite Kiwi treat. 

Mango and coconut on the other hand have peaked interest.

“Woo Hoo a yummy mango flavour soon! 🎉🎉🎉🥭🥭🥭,” one fan wrote on the teaser.

Another said: “Mango, coconut and chocolate. Sounds perfect for me!”

While a third doesn’t have to worry any longer after saying: “Please be mango and white choc! We need more white chocolate flavours! Don't be scared 😅.”

Whittaker’s new Mango & Coconut Block will be available in stores up and down the country from Monday 22nd April.
