CADBURY has launched a new chocolate bar inspired by a beloved Aussie bakery treat, and it's flying off the shelves.
The Vanilla Passionfruit Dairy Milk Bar is the latest addition to Cadbury's SLICES range, currently only available in Australia.

The new flavour comes after the chocolate giant announced in April that a whole new range would join the Dairy Milk Crackle, Caramilk Hedgehog and Cadbury Old Gold Mint Creme on grocery store shelves.
The Vanilla Passionfruit SLICES bar is a creamy, yet tangy, twist on regular old chocolate.
A passion fruit-flavoured jelly at the very core is wrapped with a vanilla cream, covered with the traditional Cadbury dairy milk chocolate.
It is inspired by the beloved passion fruit slice you'd see in any good Aussie bakery, which has a coconut crust and a creamy layer of passion fruit, lemon and sweetened condensed milk.
This new SLICES flavour is now available at leading retailers across Australia for $5.50.
But some chocolate fans are struggling to get their hands on the sweet treat.
"I want to try this but I can't seem to find it in the aisles yet in Brisbane," one said.
"I could not for the life of me find it in stock at Coles," another replied.

The lucky ones who manage to get it, have given mixed reviews.
Emily, who goes under @snackreviews_aus on TikTok, shared her thoughts to her followers saying she couldn't taste the vanilla as much.
"It had a nice passion fruit flavour, but the vanilla kind of got a bit lost," she said.
"If this was made with a Caramilk chocolate base, this would have been way better as well.
"But I still recommend to give this block a try."
TikTok user Zach also shared his thoughts, saying the new Cadbury bar was more like a dessert than a quick snack.
He said: "Can't really taste the vanilla but you can taste the passion fruit straight out."
But another reviewer, who goes by The Douquet, had a completely different opinion saying the chocolate had the "perfect ratio" of passion fruit and vanilla.
"You can smell the passion fruit straight away," she said as she opened the chocolate bar.
"Oh my God, yum. That is amazing. I have no words.
"This block of chocolate has the perfect passion fruit to vanilla ratio."
