The food and drink company is well known for a range of products, including KitKat, Cheerios, Quality Street, and Nescafé coffee.

Nestle has discontinued a range of products in recent years, including:

Nestle discontinues After Eight chocolate

Nestle has now confirmed it has stopped making After Eight Dark Mint Chocolate Bites.

After Eight Bites launched in the UK back in 2006.

Unlike the original wafer-thin mints, Bites were small, square pieces of dark chocolate filled with a soft peppermint fondant.

The chocolate was part of Nestle's push to expand the After Eight brand into more casual, shareable formats.

Fans have been unable to find After Eight Bites for some time, with one person posting on X (formerly Twitter) asking: "@NestleUKI please tell me that Mintola/Mint Munchies/After Eight Bitesize have not been discontinued?……not seen in ages."
