Nestlé launches its first Quality Street product in almost 85 years
Intrigue combines praline, caramel and fruit, with a truffle centre and the company hopes it will delight Quality Street fans as well as introduce new consumers to the brand.
Wrapped sweets
Quality Street Intrigue comes in three flavours: Salted Caramel Truffles, Praline Truffles and Orange Truffles. They are available in 200g boxes (RRP £5.00) each containing 20 individually wrapped sweets.
“Quality Street is a much-loved UK brand; and we know many fans would love to enjoy more of it all year round. That’s why we’ve created a product that will enable consumers to experience Quality Street in a brand-new way,” said Rebecca Holt, brand manager, Quality Street.
“With Intrigue, we’ve taken the essence of Quality Street and added a contemporary twist."
Paying tribute to the iconic Mackintosh caramel toffee, which was the forerunner to Quality Street, Salted Caramel Truffles have a salted caramel flavoured centre and milk chocolate coating, dipped in crunchy salted caramel pieces.
Quality Street varieties
Inspired by two of the nation’s favourite Quality Street varieties - the Green Triangle and the Purple One, Praline Truffles feature a smooth praline truffle centre encased in a milk chocolate shell and covered in hazelnut pieces.
And like its Quality Street counterparts the Orange Crunch and Orange Crème, Intrigue Orange Truffles provide a burst of citrus, coated in milk chocolate and sprinkled with orange-flavoured pieces.
Quality Street Intrigue Salted Caramel and Praline Truffles will be available in Morrisons and Asda stores nationwide from the beginning of March; and in Tesco stores from April. Orange Truffles are exclusive to Asda.
