Nestle has announced that they will be making permanent changes to two iconic sweets from their Quality Street range.
The Purple One and the Orange Crunch "have taken on a new shape" which is now the same as the Caramel Swirl.
Additionally, the Orange Crunch is moving from its foil wrapping to a paper wrapper.
Quality Street adds: "But fear not! While both sweets have taken on a new shape, they will still be in their iconic coloured wrappers and keep their unique and well-loved flavours.
"The change comes after a successful trial at the end of 2023, which saw The Purple One sweet go out in a small number of The Purple One® Bags. Some chocolate fans might have noticed the new Orange Crunch in a limited number of tubs, cartons, and tins on the run up to Christmas."

Quality Street chocolates changed after trial
Jemma Handley, Senior Brand Manager for Quality Street, said: “After a successful trial at Christmas, we’ll be permanently rolling out new shapes for two of our much-loved sweets.
"We know how iconic Quality Street sweets are and we have taken great care and attention to make sure that it is the same great tasting The Purple One and Orange Crunch that people know and love in their iconic coloured wrappers.”
“At Quality Street, we also know that fans feel very passionately about their own particular favourites, and we make sure there is something for everyone within the mix,” she added.
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.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
