A limited edition Christmas-themed Mentos is set to roll out across stores, containing 14 printed sweets.

The new vanilla mint flavoured candies provide an alternative to chocolate this Christmas and have been hailed by the firm as a perfect stocking filler.

Each individually wrapped rolls carry one of four humorous festive messages from You make Christmas Sweeter', ‘Sweetest Seasons Greetings’, ‘Peace, Love & Joy’ and ‘Ho! Ho! Ho!’.

Sarah Elmer, Mentos brand manager said: “We’re thrilled to launch Mentos Candy Cane in the UK for the first time this year. It was very popular in the states, so we are hoping we can replicate this success this side of the Atlantic.

“With Christmas starting earlier and earlier every year, and more competition amongst stores and sectors, retailers can take advantage of the surging demand for festive confectionery with this limited edition.

"It’s a unique, playful twist on our classic Mentos Mint that is sure to bring joy.”

Mentos' Christmas themed flavour is retailed at £1 for three rolls.
