Shoppers are obsessing over a new Aero caramel gold chocolate block, with some fans even likening the flavour to the hugely popular Caramilk.

The aerated bar, which costs $2.50 at Coles, consists of ‘light bubbles’ of caramel gold covered with smooth milk chocolate.

‘It’s a melt-in-your-mouth experience not to be missed,’ the brand said.

Hundreds of shoppers said they couldn’t wait to get their hands on the new creation, with many saying: ‘Shut up and take my money.’

‘Wowser what a time to be alive,’ one wrote, while another added: ‘This will be the best ever chocolate.’

One said: ‘This could be the start of a new love affair, I hope I can find it at my local supermarket,’ while another wrote: ‘This is like my ultimate after peppermint flavour. They can’t do this to me right now.’

And another added: ‘My caramel dreams have come true.’ 

Some were divided over the new flavour while other customers suggested the chocolate reminded them of Cadbury Caramilk.

Consumer brand The Grocery Geek also announced the news to its fans, saying: ‘Be on the look out! This is not a drill.

‘The wizards at Aero have delivered their latest creation – Aero Caramel Gold Block… an Aero bubbly caramel flavoured centre encased in delicious Aero smooth milk chocolate,’ the brand wrote on Facebook. 

The chocolates are made in Australia from 100 per cent certified sustainable cocoa supplied through the NESTLE Cocoa Plan to ensure a better future for cocoa farmers – and it’s said to be a better chocolate for you.

The new flavour comes just days after two of Australia’s favourite chocolate bars joined forces to delight choc-mint fans with the launch of KitKat Chunky Aero Mint.

In a sweet collaboration, the two iconic brands have merged into one chocolate bar, the first of its kind, to offer shoppers a refreshing experience like no other.

The minty bar features three layers of the classic crisp wafer, lusciously topped with peppermint light aerated chocolate, and smothered in smooth milk chocolate.

This is the first time the two brands have come together to elevate their individual flavours, inviting fans to ‘feel the bubbles’ of Aero like never before with a crunchy wafer texture. 

‘The KitKat team are always looking for ways to create the most exciting break,’ Nestlé head of marketing confectionery Joyce Tan said. 

‘So we wanted to launch a new creation which would excite fans with a flavour and texture combination that would leave them longing for more.

‘There’s so much love for both of these chocolate bars, so we’re excited for them to become one and take the KitKat choc mint experience to the next level.’

KitKat Chunky Aero Mint will be available in supermarkets and convenience stores around the country for just $2 a bar.
