Source and evidence
Against official inflation: ONS CPI (UK) “other bakery products” changed −0.9% (12 months to Jun 2024). This pack’s price per gram changed +12.6%, 13.5 percentage points above the official rate, using the shelf prices the source recorded. Every case is compared the same way in the ShrinkRadar Index.
What the source says
“…packs – available in Milk Chocolate, White Chocolate, Orange Chocolate and Dark Chocolate variants – but shelf prices have remained the same in the mults. The old 125g packs, which used to contain nine biscuits, have been swapped for 111g alternatives containing eight biscuits.”
