Smarties has changed its name – but only for Halloween

The new bags of sweets are made up of only the orange and brown Smarties and cost £1 from Asda

NESTLE is launching a ghoulish inspired packet of Smarties where the confectionery brand's iconic moniker has been changed to Scaries.

But be warned, after October 31, the spooky snacks will disappear from shelves.

The new snack bags are only available in Asda for £1 at the moment, but you'll be able to pick them up in Tesco from October 3.

Available in 112g bags, only orange and brown Smarties are included to reflect the colours of autumn and Halloween.

A standard portion is made up of 16 sweets and contains 91 calories - although if you scoff the whole sharing bag yourself then you're looking at around 537 calories.

The packets cost the same as other special edition Smarties too, such as the Orange Smarties sharing bags and the Unicorn coloured ones too.

Although if you're not bothered about what coloured Smarties you snack on then you're better off buying an original sharing pack that costs £1 for a bigger 118g from Sainsbury's and Tesco.

If you've got a sweet tooth then you'll be excited to know that Tesco is selling half price boxes of Maltesers for £1.75 but you'll need to be quick.

Milk Jaffa cakes are now a thing too and you can buy them from Home Bargains for 59p each.

M&S has turned the Jaffa cake snack into a cocktail as part of its new festive range for this year.
