- Aussie chocoholics can soon get their hands on Violet Crumble honeycomb milk
- Confectioner Robern Mernz is keeping details of launch a closely guarded secret
- The iconic $1.50 chocolate bar is similar to Cadbury's honeycomb Crunchie
Australian confectioner Robern Mernz has shared the first glimpse of its latest product - Violet Crumble Chocolate Honeycomb Milk.
Chocoholics will soon be able to buy 500ml bottles of the decadent drink - but the brand is keeping any further detail of the launch a closely guarded secret.
Made in Adelaide, South Australia, Violet Crumble bars are similar to the British-made Cadbury Crunchie. They are sold for $1.50 in supermarkets, convenience stores and service stations.
The iconic sweet has inspired dozens of dessert recipes this year, including a Violet Crumble cheesecake and chocolate slices created by Adelaide food blogger Laura Bakhtiarian.

She used six simple ingredients - plain biscuits, unsalted butter, sweetened condensed milk, plain chocolate, vegetable oil and the crunchy honeycomb bars - to make the bite-sized slices in just 15 minutes.
First, Ms Bakhtiarian melted the butter and condensed milk in a small saucepan over a low heat.
Then she crushed the biscuits and Violet Crumble bars in a separate bowl and tipped them into the butter and milk.
Once combined, she pressed the mixture into a greased pan and left it to set.
Next she melted the chocolate and oil and poured the mixture over the biscuit base before refrigerating until firm.

One fan said: 'I need this in my life, like now.'
'This is perfection!' said a second.
A third added: 'Dreams really do come true.'
