Nestle is making changes to two of the most popular Quality Street chocolates ahead of the upcoming Christmas season.
Quality Street fans will notice changes to two of the most iconic chocolate flavours - The Purple One and Orange Crunch.
But there is no need to worry, the change is only for a limited time and the chocolates will still taste the same.
This latest change comes just weeks after Quality Street revealed it would be bringing back the 'fan-favourite' Coffee Creme flavour for Christmas 20 years after it was discontinued.
YOU ASKED, WE LISTENED…we’re bringing back COFFEE CREME as a limited edition for Christmas 2023! 🥳 🥳🥳

What changes are Quality Street making to the two iconic chocolates?
The chocolatiers have modified the appearance of The Purple One and Orange Crunch for the upcoming festive period, according to The Mirror.
Currently, Orange Crunch is the shape of a hexagon and The Purple one is a rounded oval-like shape.
For a limited time, both chocolates will be shaped like the Caramel Swirl - which is one of the rounder chocolates in the gold wrapper.
While the shapes of the two chocolates will change, the colour of the wrappings will remain the same so people are still able to tell the difference.

For those Caramel Swirl lovers out there, don't worry despite the shape changes to the other two chocolates, this classic chocolate will remain the same.
For those fans hoping to get their hands on one of these limited-edition chocolates they will not be in every tub, so here's where to find them.
The newly shaped Purple Ones will only be available in The Purple One chocolate bags.
As for the new Orange Crunch, they will be included in specially marked tubs of Quality Street, so be sure to check the tub before you buy to make sure it contains the limited-edition chocolate.

Quality Street senior brand manager, Jemma Handley speaking to The Mirror, said: "We are trialling a different shape for two of our sweets this Christmas season.
"We know how iconic Quality Street sweets are and we have made sure that it is the same great-tasting Purple One and Orange Crunch that people know and love inside their iconic coloured wrappers."
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
