Nestlé adds dessert-inspired sweets to Rowntree’s range

Rowntree’s Dessert Pastilles will be available from the beginning of February in 139g sharing bags (£1.29), containing four flavours – mango sorbet, blueberry pie, cherry bakewell, and apple crumble.

Nestlé said the variant is vegan-friendly, like the rest of the Rowntree’s portfolio.

Meg Miller, brand manager for Rowntree’s, said: “There has been an incredible response to our slightly softer, vegan friendly Fruit Pastilles and we are delighted consumers agree that the chew remains as fabulously fruity as ever.

“Now we are introducing an innovative twist on our classic pastilles with four on-trend flavours that evoke the taste of some of the nation’s best loved puddings.”
