The stands will be found at 18 branches nationwide where customers can choose from 12 different choccies.

They’ll be able to fill a 1.2kg tub for £14 and if they bring a tin from home it will set them back £10 for a refill.

Tins from home will have to be from John Lewis though.

There’s also an option to personalise your tin lid for £17 and pre-filled tins cost £12.

Customers heading to a John Lewis store will be able to exclusively get hold of the Honeycomb Crunch flavour as well – last seen in 2018.

For the full list of pick ‘n’ mix station locations you can go onto John Lewis’ website.

Quality Street senior brand manager Jemma Handley said: “We are delighted to announce the return of our beloved pick and mix stations at John Lewis for 2022, complete with a delicious new flavour sweet.

“Best of all, you can tailor the contents precisely to your liking, whether that means nothing but purple ones, a tin full of the new honeycomb crunches, or a feast of fruit crèmes.”

John Lewis posted an announcement about the Quality Street stands on Instagram and shoppers have been commenting on the post sharing their excitement at nabbing some of the choccie tubs.

One customer said: “Omg!!! I want this just with orange.”

Another said: “A box of green triangles please.”

While a third added: “OH MY GOODNESS.”

When we checked, Tesco was selling a 600g Quality Street tub for £4.

Aldi was selling the same 600g tub for £3.99 while Sainsbury’s was selling one for £5.

It comes after Nestle announced Quality Street would be axing its famous brightly-coloured wrappers for more environmentally-friendly ones.

Not all have been changed yet though – the green triangle and orange crunch will remain in their original packaging as they are already recyclable.

In August, Nestle also announced it would be reducing the size of its Quality Street tub from 650g to 600g.

A company spokesperson told The Grocer a new range with formats, sizes, weights and rsps was based on a number of factors including the cost of manufacturing, ingredients and transport and customers’ and consumers’ preferences.
