OREO is launching a one-of-a-kind partnership with the hotly anticipated A MINECRAFT MOVIE, in cinemas April 4.

The cookie brand has come together with the movie, set in a world where creativity is essential to one’s survival, to encourage fans to taste, play, win – serving up OREO’s most playful snacking experience to date, with money-can’t-buy prizes on offer.

Four Special Edition cookies have been released as part of the partnership, which includes a very special feature that allows cookie faithful and moviegoers to enter a world of play.

The cookies are embossed with symbols inspired by A MINECRAFT MOVIE – the iconic Pickaxe, Crystal, Sword and Creeper – all sure to excite Minecraft fans and entice OREO lovers to experience both the cookies and the film.

In OREO’s most playful gaming mechanic on pack yet, fans bite the cookie into a square and then scan the custom embossments to access a themed AR online experience, where players hunt for hidden elements from A MINECRAFT MOVIE.

The Special Edition cookies also offer fans the chance to win exclusive OREO x A MINECRAFT MOVIE prizes.

“At OREO, our mission is to bring more playfulness into the world, and our latest partnership with A MINECRAFT MOVIE is set to be our most playful collaboration yet – by paying homage to the beloved blocks of Minecraft with our iconic round cookie,” said Perrine Pierrard-Willaey, Marketing Director Europe at OREO. “We’ve seen some amazing partnerships in the past from Xbox to Batman so we hope this partnership excites fans just as much, and we can’t wait to see them taste, play and win!”

Julie Moore, Senior Vice President of Global Brand Partnerships at Warner Bros. Pictures said: “A MINECRAFT MOVIE, just like the hugely popular game that inspired it, is all about empowerment through creativity, and no cookie has inspired more creative ways to consume it than OREO. The fact that the classic circle-shape is embracing the renowned Minecraft block makes our partnership one for the ages.”

Swizzels limited-edition Valentine’s Day treat

Sweet maker Swizzels has unveiled a brand-new limited-edition product in time for Valentine’s Day, combining two of its most-loved brands into one treat: Squashies Love Hearts.

Offering a fresh twist on two popular classics, the new Squashies Love Hearts combine Squashies’ signature soft texture with the iconic and timeless messages of Love Hearts.

Squashies remain the No. 1 sugar confectionery brand in the market, while Love Hearts see consistent growth, with 950,000 units sold during the Valentine’s period and a 10 per cent year-on-year growth in brand value. Building on this success, Swizzels has combined the two household names to create a fast-moving and profitable addition to any retailer’s offering.

Available in 120g bags and sold in cases of 12, each foam sweet is embossed with a fun message or emoji, making them ideal for sharing with a loved one. Messages include "KISS", "WOW", "FAB", and "LOVE", alongside two cheerful and romantic emojis, adding a playful touch.

With an MRSP of £1.15, the new product retains the classic colours and flavours of traditional Love Hearts, including Pineapple, Lime, Blackcurrant, Lemon, Cherry, and Orange.

Swizzels’ Love Hearts range remains a Valentine’s Day favourite, led by the popular 39g Giant Love Hearts rolls, which outsell any other Valentine’s SKU with 621,000 units sold during the season.



Other fan-favourites from the range include Love Hearts Originals Hanging Bags, the 15g mini Love Hearts rolls and Giant Love Hearts multipacks.

“We’re excited to introduce a delicious and innovative new product that combines two of our most popular brands, delivering the same moreish flavours and signature texture - with an added twist," said trade marketing manager Clare Newton.
