  3. Toffee Crisp and Blue Riband can't be called chocolate any more

    'Nestle has reformulated Toffee Crisp and Blue Riband bars, reducing their cocoa and milk solid content below UK chocolate standards, leading to their reclassification as "encased in a smooth milk chocolate flavour coating." This change, driven by rising cocoa prices, reflects a broader industry trend known as "skimpflation," where companies adjust recipes to manage increased production costs. Similar adjustments have been made by other brands, such as McVitie's, which recently relabelled its Penguin and Club bars as "chocolate flavour."'

  7. /2

    Of ‘shrinkflation’ (which Hershey calls “price pack architecture”), the CEO said:

    “It’s not a direct price point increase, but rather, it’s kind of a combination of sizing and price, which can tend to offer perhaps a better value perception for consumers.”

    (🥴)

    (Omg it’s such utter nonsense and I have a degree in it lol)

  8. 🍫 Cocoa crisis alert! 📈 Cocoa prices hit record highs as London contracts near £10,000/ton. Global shortages due to poor harvests in West Africa could keep prices elevated. Ghana & Ivory Coast boost farmer rates to revive production. #CommodityMarket #CocoaPrices #EconomicImpact
