Another day, another reason to start getting very excited for Christmas...
As we all know, the festive season isn't really complete unless you eat your way through an entire tin of Quality Street in one sitting.
So we're betting die-hard fans of the chocolate box will be thrilled to hear that an old favourite is making a triumphant return for Christmas 2017, 12 months after it was axed from the tin: The Toffee Deluxe.
You know, the sticky toffee one covered in milk chocolate that was replaced last year by the Honeycomb Crunch.
Well, following a bit of backlash from Quality Street fans who were devastated to see their beloved Toffee Deluxe go (seriously, #ToffeeGate began trending), Nestle has decided to bring it back.
And Honeycomb Crunch fans needn't worry either, as the new addition will remain in tins. DOUBLE. WIN.
Everyone's clicking on...
Speaking to Metro, Jonathan Smith, Senior Brand Manager for Quality Street, said: "The reaction to Honeycomb Crunch replacing Toffee Deluxe last year was incredible and, although a lot the comments were tongue-in-cheek, it was obvious that there is still a great deal of fondness for the Toffee Deluxe out there.
"Quality Street is a brand that is all about bringing families and friends together through the love of each person's individual favourite sweet so we are delighted to be keeping both sweets in the assortment and giving consumers even more choice, moving from 12 to 13 different sweets overall."
We don't know about you, but the Toffee Deluxe's comeback from the dead makes us THIS happy:
