If you’re a fan of Aero’s bubbly chocolate, you might notice something a little different about the sweet treat in the coming weeks.
That’s because the brand, which is owned by Nestlé, has revealed it’s had a ‘bubble breach’ at its York factory.
As such an ‘urgent’ message has been issued, warning customers that bubble-less Aeros will be cropping up across the UK and Ireland very soon.
Yes, it’s a cheeky marketing stunt, but if you’re someone who buys Aero chocolate bars regularly, you might want to take note, as you could nab yourself £10,000.
While some will undoubtedly be disappointed if they were to buy an Aero and find it was just a regular slab of chocolate, certain packs of bubble-less bars will contain inserts offering a cash prize of £10,000.
You won’t know whether or not you’ve got a winner just by looking at a pack though, as they are said to contain chocolate products that weigh and feel the same as their bubbly counterparts.
Regular bars could also win you money, with £100 daily prize draws for those who verify their chocolate had bubbles in on the Aero website.
There are 10 lots of the £10,000 prize available to be won until April 20, 2026, and if you manage to get one, you’ll want to be sure you’ve kept your receipt somewhere safe in order to claim it.
Emily Lord, Senior Brand Manager for Aero, said: ‘We want to apologise and reassure everyone that creating our deliciously bubbly chocolate remains a top priority. We’ll be doing everything we can to make sure no further bubbles escape.
‘If anyone finds a bubble-less pack, please reach out to us right away, and don’t forget to keep your receipt and winning insert.’
She added: ‘We need to get the bubble-breach contained as soon as possible.’
In other chocolate news, Toblerone recently left fans devastated with the announcement that the dark version of its iconic bar was being discontinued.
And Cadbury was at the centre of a controversy last week, as fans falsely accused them of removing the word ‘Easter’ from Easter egg boxes after 100 years. Turns out, people just weren’t looking closely enough at the packaging…
