At some point this festive season, you’ll no doubt settle on the sofa, with a hot chocolate and a chocolate orange. It’s Christmas, after all.

But now, you can combine the two, as Cadbury have teamed up with Tassimo to release limited edition hot chocolate orange pods.

Described by Tassimo as a ‘taste sensation’, they say the new launch ‘harmoniously melds pure, intense cocoa and the zestiest orange flavours.’

Of course, the catch here is that you need to have a Tassimo machine at home to be able to enjoy the new treat – but, nevertheless, Cadbury fans are excited.

‘Omg chocolate orange are my favourite I have to try these!’ wrote Helen Wyatt on TikTok.

While over on Facebook, Sarah Tummey, said: ‘I’m enjoying the orange hot chocolate so much. Got 2 more packs coming in my Tesco delivery today.’

And Peter Roberts on Instagram simply said: ‘Gorgeous drink.’

Each pack contains eight servings – they’re sold in most major supermarkets, but you’ll currently find them for the cheapest price in Sainsbury’s, for just £4.20.

The news comes after chocolate fans have been thrilled to see so many launches over the festive seasons – and the return of old favourites.

Earlier this month, Cadbury launched another chocolate orange treat, this time in the form of mini eggs – no, it’s not quite Easter yet, but shoppers are already stocking up.

They’ve also released an alternative to Celebrations, Cadbury Dairy Milk Freddo & Friends, tubs filled with a range of sweet treats, including the iconic Freddo bars, as well as caramel Freddos, Cadbury buttons, and Fudge bars.
