Here’s some tasty swaps . . . 

DAIRY DELIGHT: Craving a Cadbury Dairy Milk?

The Asda Just Essentials milk- chocolate bar is a great swap for the classic, offering that same creamy flavour.

At just 59p for the bar, it’s an absolute steal that will satisfy any choc craving without the hefty brand-name price tag.

WAY TO GO: If you’re a fan of Milky Way chocolate bars, you need to pick up a pack of Tesco Cosmic Whip bars, for £1.75.

They have the same light, airy texture and will save you 25p when compared with buying the originals at Iceland.

NUTTY KNOCK-OFF: For those who love the delicious combination of chocolate and hazelnut in a Kinder Bueno bar, try the Lidl Mister Choc Bellona wafer bars.

They have a smooth centre and are great for lunchboxes. At just £1.19 for a pack of seven, this is a no-brainer for families on a budget.

ON THE BUTTON: A pack of Cadbury Caramel Nibbles is hard to beat, but at Morrisons the own-brand version gets pretty close.

The Morrisons caramel-filled giant chocolate buttons taste amazing and a pack will only set you back £1, instead of £1.95.


TAKES THE BISCUIT: Why spend over a pound on a Twix when Aldi’s twin-bar imitation, the Dairy Fine Titan bars, are around?

You get the same combination of biscuit, caramel and chocolate, and a pack of six bars is only £1.29.

NEW NOUGAT: If a Snickers bar is your absolute favourite, you can find a similar but more cost-effective bar at Sainsbury’s.

A pack of five Nutty Nougat chocolate bars is just £1.45, which works out at only 29p per bar.

These treats are packed full of peanuts and a pack of them is much cheaper than spending £1.20 on a single Snickers bar or a pack of four for £2.15.
