Premier Foods is expanding its Halloween range for 2023 with the introduction of Mr Kipling Chocolate & Orange Slices.

The supplier says the individually packed snacks (RRP £2) are ideal for trick-or-treating, dessert, or snacking at home or on the go. They will be available alongside the rest of the Premier Foods Halloween range from 18 September.

Additionally, value sales of chocolate and orange-flavoured cakes have grown by 11% year on year, and 66% of consumers are looking to try new seasonal flavours of products they already know and love.

“Stocking the product alongside the wider Mr Kipling and Cadbury cake Halloween range will help retailers appeal to all ages and occasions – from trick or treating through to celebrations with friends and family.”
