Nestlé expands Aero range with Aero Dark & Milk

Nestlé has expanded its Aero range with the addition of Aero Dark & Milk chocolate in the UK.

The company claims that its new chocolate is made using 51% cocoa solids and 9% of milk solids to create a rich and smooth chocolate bar.

Aero brand manager Hannah Smithson said: “Aero Dark and Milk has a higher percentage of cocoa solids than standard Aero chocolate, which makes it ideal for those who are looking for a more intense, grown-up flavour.

“At the same time, it retains the creamy taste elements you would find in milk chocolate, which means there is no bitterness.”

Nestlé said that the new Aero Dark & Milk is available across major retailers and convenience shops in 90g sharing bar format.

It also added that an Aero Dark & Milk Peppermint sharing bar will be available as an exclusive in Tesco stores.

Smithson further added: “More shoppers than ever are seeking out the stronger flavour notes of dark chocolate, but we know that some people can find the taste overpowering.

“We have combined cocoa and milk solids to produce rich and smooth chocolatey bubbles that melt effortlessly in your mouth – and we hope people will agree that the result is irresistible. Aero Dark & Milk is the perfect little lift for enjoying in precious moments of me-time, however brief they might be!”

In October 2017, Nestlé UK released the limited-edition tubes of orange Smarties across the country following huge consumer demand for the product.

The tubes of orange Smarties were available exclusively across the UK supermarket chain ASDA.
