This Aussie chocolate has been missed for the last 10 years, but the Polly Waffle is officially back!
2024 is the year of change, and this one is definitely causing celebration among chocolate fans.
After almost a decade of waiting, the Polly Waffle is back, and better than ever! Instead of being in a chocolate bar form, you can now get the Polly Waffle in a packet, with bite-sized pieces perfect for snacking on.
Customers in South Australia will be able to purchase the 125g bags from major retailers, including Coles and Woolworths from the 12 of April onwards. In the coming weeks, Polly Waffle Bites will be available nationwide, as well as in independent supermarkets, petrol stations and convenience stores.
This marshmallow and wafer chocolate bar was first created by Hoadley’s Chocolates in 1947, and has since been passed through several confectionary giants, including Rowntrees and Nestle.
The famed Polly Waffle chocolate bar was discontinued in 2009, much to the disappointment of Aussie shoppers. After being bought by South Australian confectioner Robern Menz, there was talk of return of the popular treat.
In 2019, Menz announced the return of the Polly Waffle, however, after the onset of COVID-19 in 2020, it’s return was unfortunately delayed.
Since the end of the pandemic, Polly Waffle fans (especially Baby Boomers and Gen X) have been patiently waiting.
Four years later, Menz’s CEO, Phil Sims, has taken to Facebook to express his excitement about the return of the popular choccy, stating:
“We know it’s been a journey and we can’t wait for you to enjoy this delicious nostalgic treat, with a modern take!”
Will you be heading to your nearest supermarket to get your hands on some Polly Waffle Bites?
