Quality Street is bringing back fan favourite chocolate for Christmas

Quality Street is bringing back a fan favourite chocolate for the second year running this Christmas.

Coffee Creme will once again be available exclusively at John Lewis and Waitrose for the festive period. If you've yet to try one, the Coffee Creme contains a coffee flavour fondant wrapped in dark chocolate. The popular sweet will be available to buy at Quality Street pick and mix stations across selected John Lewis stores in the UK.

These stations allow shoppers to create their own bespoke collection of Quality Street favourites to take home, or gift. Coffee Creme will also be available in a limited-edition cracker at Waitrose and John Lewis stores. Shoppers can refill their own John Lewis bought Quality Street tins or purchase a new exclusive special edition tin.

The pick and mix station at John Lewis' flagship Oxford Street store opens today (September 25) with other participating stores following throughout October. Fans have been reacting to the return of Coffee Creme on social media. One person said: "Yay! I loved this one in my advent calendar."

Another said: "One of my favourites." A third person posted: "Huzzah. Delighted to hear this." A fourth said: "YEEEESSSSSSS!" Emily Grimbley, Brand Manager for Quality Street, said: “It’s a pleasure to share the news that coffee creme will be returning for Christmas 2024.

"This is an absolute fan favourite, and we are delighted to have it on shop shelves for Quality Street fans nationwide. We know how passionately Quality Street fans feel about their favourite sweets, so the pick and mix stations at John Lewis are people’s chance to fill up their own bespoke mix with just the sweets that they and their friends and family love.”

Lisa Cherry, Christmas Buying Lead at John Lewis, said: “We're very excited to welcome Quality Street back to John Lewis for 2024, as we know it's something our customers associate with the festive season. Our exclusive collection of baubles have already been bestsellers, and we predict that the return of the coffee creme as well as a limited edition tin design will be big favourites.”
