The new blocks are available nationwide from selected independent supermarkets, Woolworths, and Coles for $5 each.

Few foods are as iconic as chocolate, and Cadbury Dairy Milk is one of the most well-loved chocolate brands in the world.
Australians have been enjoying Cadbury Dairy Milk chocolate since the 1920s, and it remains one of the country's favourite treats.
