Bring back the Hundreds and Thousands Whittaker's Block
The Issue
After seeing the release of the Gumdrop Block, a sudden thought dawned on me. The design, it looked...oddly familiar. Then the generous block-sized coin dropped: when has Whittaker's done a block based on the Hundreds and Thousands biscuit? The original purpose of this petition was to ask the proud New Zealand brand to consider producing a limited series of this flavour.
And it turned out after a Google search that it had been done before in 2014 and 2021! It has been five years since the Hundreds and Thousands Whittaker's Block last graced our shelves, and that's too long for a chocolate flavour that brought joy to so many. As a loyal fan of Whittaker's and its unique creations, I believe it's time to bring this cherished treat back, even if just for a short while.
The Hundreds and Thousands Block was more than just a novelty; it was a taste of nostalgia and a reminder of our favourite childhood biscuit now coated in rich Whittakers chocolate. That combination created a delightful explosion of flavour, reminiscent of those special moments shared with loved ones over a cup of tea and biscuit in hand.
Bringing back this limited edition flavour isn't just about reliving the past. It's about creating new memories and sharing something truly unique with those who may have missed its initial releases. The appeal of combining crunchy biscuit pieces, brightly coloured candy sprinkles, and luscious chocolate is undeniable.
Let's show Whittaker's how much we want to see the Hundreds and Thousands Block return by signing this petition. Together, as fans of this beloved New Zealand brand, we ask Whittaker's to consider releasing a limited edition once more. Sign the petition and be a part of bringing joy and delicious nostalgia back to chocolate lovers everywhere.

Change.org generated half of the above text, but here's my $7.50 of an opinion - why not? Why not have another limited time for this unique and popular flavour of this proud New Zealand chocolate brand? I personally missed out on the 2014 and 2021 trains because I had yet to see the light. But since 2022 I have seen that light, and I wish to shine that light back on a forgotten treasure.
