The range includes Curious Chews, Minions Tropical Chew Bars, Drumstick Choos, Refreshers Choos, Luscious Lollies and Scrumptious Sweets.

To enter the competition, retailers need to upload their invoice or receipt via the QR code or on https://www.swizzels.com/tradecomp. The competition opens on the 1 February and closes at 11:59 pm on 30 April.

As the cost-of-living crisis continues to be a major concern for most British households, at home family and social occasions are growing in importance.

“The Big Night In is now a firmly established trend that shows no signs of slowing down," said Mark Walker, Sales Director at Swizzels. "We anticipate that more people will choose to socialise at home at the beginning of 2023 due to rising costs.

"With over 53 per cent of consumers reducing spending to pay their bills, value-for-money confectionery continues to be a hugely popular choice for shoppers.

"Our hanging bags contain a selection of well-loved sweets with something for everyone, making them the ideal product to share on a Big Night In.”

As part of Swizzels’ Big Night In campaign there will be impactful POS displays for cash and carries, wholesalers and retailers, as well as marketing support across customers own trade channels.

Gnaw ‘new-stalgia’: pud-themed Chocolate Spoons and flavoured choc bars

Tapping into “new-stalgia” (an anticipated hot food trend in 2025), Gnaw has been working tirelessly to rethink Great British puddings by creating a number of “Hug in a Mug” classics (Crème Brulée, Bakewell Tart, Sticky Toffee Pud) in conjunction with an impressive “pudfolio” of dessert-flavoured bars: New York Cheesecake, Christmas Pudding, Banoffee Pie and Sticky Toffee Pudding.

Desserts may prove divisive. For many the last course will always be a fitting finale to a great meal spent with friends of family, enticing comfort food that offers a nostalgic peek into happy custard drenched, ice cream topped memories from yesteryear.
