Cadbury had made dreams come true across Australia with the return of their ‘Caramilk’ bar, which hasn’t been available in more than 20 years.

The popular combination of white chocolate and chewy caramel goodness was introduced to the land down under in 1990, before being discontinued four years later.

But now the chocolate brand has been dealt a massive blow with a national recall.

In a statement issued today, Cadbury have recalled the limited edition Caramilk chocolate.

“A limited number of Cadbury Caramilk products have been found to contain small, flexible pieces of food grade plastic as a result of a machinery fault during the manufacturing process.
“Cadbury Caramilk products containing plastic may cause minor injury if consumed. Our analysis of the samples received to date has determined that this product dose not appear to pose a serious health or food safety risk, but a recall has been initiated to prevent the risk of minor injury.
“Consumers should not consume the affected product and return it to the place of purchase for a full refund - no proof of purchase required.”

The chocolate bar was a massive hit in New Zealand recently, with Caramilk completely selling out within three weeks.
