There’s definitely been a surge in chocolate-covered frozen fruit lately, and it's a trend we are fully on board with. It’s the perfect after-dinner treat when you want something sweet but not too heavy, and it almost feels healthy. Refreshing, chocolatey and just the right level of indulgent.
The latest brand to jump on this very welcome trend is M&S, with its new Chocolate Fruits range - and there are three berry-filled options to choose from.
Launching in stores from today, 25 March, the line-up includes Milk & White Chocolate Enrobed Frozen Strawberries 🍓, Dark & White Chocolate Enrobed Frozen Raspberries, and Dark & White Chocolate Enrobed Frozen Blueberries. Yes, they’re double-dipped (and this is the one time we fully support it).
Each tub costs £5.50 for 150g, and while they’re ready straight from the freezer, M&S recommends leaving them out for 10–15 minutes before eating. Trust us, your teeth will thank you - biting straight into frozen fruit is not for the faint-hearted. 🥶
For us, this is the ultimate solution to that post-dinner dilemma when you want both chocolate and something fruity. It ticks both boxes in one neat little tub, and we can already see these becoming a freezer staple.
M&S has been on a serious roll with new launches lately too. Only yesterday they dropped their own version of a chocolate malt ball (think Maltesers, but bigger), and we’re already planning a taste test. Safe to say, our next M&S shop is going to be a big one.
