The Aero Strawberry candy bar from Nestlé Confectionery is making its debut in the UK as a fruit-forward treat for fans of the namesake original product to try out this spring or summer.
The candy bar features the signature formulation of the original Aero bar with its bubbly composition, which is infused with ample strawberry flavor. The result is a chocolatey, fruit-forward indulgence that coincides with the change in consumer preferences towards alternative treats as we head into the warm weather months. The product is being exclusively launched at SPAR UK locations before a wider launch into the market.
Senior National Account Manager at Nestlé Confectionery Alex Bradbury spoke on the new Aero Strawberry candy bar saying, "We’re excited to supply our new Aero Strawberry flavour sharing bar with Spar shoppers across the UK who will give Aero Strawberry flavour fantastic reach for the launch. Launching our product exclusively with Spar is a testament to their commitment to providing every customer with excitement and newness with every visit and making the experience exceptional from the very start.”
