In a Christmas chocolate box hall of greats that includes Roses, Heroes and Celebrations, Quality Street gets something of a bad wrap.
Blame it on the lack of a standout like Roses' Hazel Whirl or the all-around appeal of Cadbury Heroes, but it always seems that a tin of Quality Street is the last to be opened when the festive buzz has died down.
The people behind Quality Street are fighting back, however, with the reintroduction of an all-time classic - the Honeycomb Crunch.
It's that time again….. ? We're BACK in @JohnLewisRetail with a NEW tin and an exclusive sweet… the Honeycomb Crunch! ??

Axed way back in 2018, the chocolate is now making a comeback for Christmas 2022 in selected 1.2kg boxes of Quality Street.
For those who've forgotten, Honeycomb Crunch is a smooth honeycomb-flavoured truffle containing honeycomb pieces, covered in milk chocolate.
The news follows an announcement by Quality Street manufacturer Nestlé that the chocolates would discontinue their trademark plastic wrapping in favour of waxed paper in a welcome bid to go green.

This could be more than enough to tempt us away from our beloved Heroes this Christmas...
