Whittaker’s has unveiled its version of the age-old classic, peanut brittle, with its Peanut & Caramel Brittle, now available nationwide at Coles and Woolworths.

This 250g block is a blend of Whittaker’s signature 5 Roll Refined Creamy Milk chocolate, freshly batch-roasted peanuts, and buttery salted caramel brittle to deliver a mix of sweet, salty, and crunchy textures.

Whittaker’s co-COO, Holly Whittaker, said the new peanut-focused flavour demonstrates Whittaker’s commitment to its philosophy of ‘best is always better’.

“The addition of the delicious salted caramel brittle, alongside the peanuts, really delivers on flavour and texture. We hope that Chocolate Lovers will agree this is something special and look forward to their feedback,” said Whittaker.

Made with care from bean to bar at Whittaker’s one and only factory in Porirua, New Zealand, the Peanut & Caramel Brittle Block is palm oil-free and uses 100% Rainforest Alliance Certified cocoa.

The new flavour is available now from Coles and Woolworths stores across Australia for RRP $8.50.
