Celebrations fans are rejoicing over the return of their "absolute fav(ourite)" one flavour chocolate tubs.
Mars Wrigley is responsible for a range of popular chocolates including M&Ms, Snickers, Skittles and of course Mars bars.
One of the confectionary company's more popular products is its Celebrations tubs, which consists of eight different chocolates:
- Mars
- Snickers
- Maltesers
- Galaxy
- Caramel Galaxy
- Bounty
- Milky Way
- Twix
It is particularly popular around the festive season with Celebrations being voted the UK's favourite Christmas chocolate in 2023 (in a study by myvouchercodes.co.uk).
Mars Wrigley launches Bounty-only tubs of Celebrations
In 2022 Mars Wrigley trialled the release of tubs of Celebrations with no Bounty chocolates in them.
This caused major uproar amongst Bounty fans across the UK.
The rumours are true. Our much loved Bounty 🥥 has left the tub. We will be trialling No Bounty tubs from the 8th November.

So last year (2023), the confectionary company rectified the situations by launching a Bounty-only tub.
Mars Wrigley UK business unit director, Kerry Cavanaugh, at the time said: "Last year (2022), Bounty lovers made their voices heard and it’s time we gave something back.
"We hope the Bounty Centrepiece will help ease the pain we caused when we removed Bounty last year.
"We’re excited to see how these tubs are received…are you a Bounty lover, or a hater?!"
Once they're gone, they're gone... https://t.co/C3eclnKkbN
