Trio Biscuits Are Making A Comeback And Everyone’s Quite Excited

Anyone who grew up in the 80s will know the complete joy of Trio chocolate bars but they have been nothing but a memory for the past 13 years.

That is all set to change, however, as the chocolate and toffee cream goodness is making a comeback after a Facebook campaign demanded its safe return.

If you head to your local supermarket from 1 March you will be able to once again buy one of the greatest chocolate bars ever made - and relive your childhood while you’re at it.

However, you may want to stock up for the future as the it looks like they’ll only be on sale for a limited time.

Sarah Heynen, marketing director of sweet biscuits for United Biscuits, said: “We are very excited to bring Trio back to market.

“We simply couldn’t ignore consumer calls to bring back what has been dubbed one of the most missed and popular biscuit brands.

“Insights have shown that the feeling of warmth towards this product has not faded as Trio’s retro brand continues to evoke a powerful feeling of nostalgia, and we anticipate strong demand from consumers to see it on shelf in their supermarket.

“We’re also sure that Trio will also find a new fan base with those that didn’t try it the first time around!”

She’s not wrong about that - Trio was one of three brands consumers voted as the most-missed in Grocer magazine’s Bring Back a Brand Facebook campaign in 2012.

The chocolate, one a staple in school lunch boxes, was backed by an advert featuring a wailing Suzy and her calypso band - something that is also set to make a comeback.

Let’s hope she’s here to stay.
