Nostalgia has a sweet taste, and for many Aussies, that taste is about to become a reality!
A beloved chocolate treat makes a surprising return to the supermarket shelves after over a decade—but with a twist.
The classic Polly Waffle is making a grand comeback but with a modern take sure to delight old and new fans.
Menz, the confectionery manufacturer, has confirmed that the long-awaited Polly Waffle will be reintroduced as Polly Waffle Bites.
These bite-sized morsels aim to capture the essence of the original chocolate bar, offering a new way to enjoy the nostalgic flavour many have been craving.
Starting Friday, April 12, customers can find the 125g bags of Polly Waffle Bites at Coles and Woolworths.
The rollout will also include independent supermarkets, petrol and convenience stores.
The reimagined treats will also be available at Menz’ FruChocs shops, both in-store and online.
Phil Sims, the CEO of Menz, expressed his excitement about the comeback of the classic Polly Waffle flavour.
'It's been more than 10 years since customers last saw Polly Waffle on shelves, and we're thrilled to bring an iconic Aussie treat back into their hands in the form of the Polly Waffle Bites,' he said.
The Menz team has been diligently working to recreate the magic of the Polly Waffle, and they are grateful for the patience of Aussies.
However, some customers have expressed disappointment due to the change in form.
‘Bring back the bars,’ one comment read.
‘I think I’ll pass,’ another read.
On the other hand, some sweet tooths welcome the change with open arms.
‘I have been impatiently waiting for this. My fave of all time,’ one comment said.
Since its creation in 1947, the Polly Waffle has been a staple treat among Aussies for years, with its signature mix of textures and flavours.
However, sales for the Polly Waffle ceased in 2009.
With the help of the federal government, Menz received a $1 Million grant to recreate the beloved chocolate snack during the pandemic.
The decision to bring it back in a bite-sized format is a testament to food innovation and the power of consumer nostalgia.
The Polly Waffle Bites are more than just a new product on the shelves, it's a piece of Australian confectionery history making a sweet comeback.
