Sweet giant Rowntree's has quietly reduced the number of sweets
in some of the nation's best-loved sugary treats -
but the price has remained the same. 

The number of sweets in 'love to share' size packs has dropped since a packaging
revamp last month - that saw the introduction of resealable pouches. 

Despite that, the cost of the Fruit Pastilles, Fruit Gums, Randoms and Jelly Tots sharing bags has stayed at £1.





Before and after: This graph shows how the number of sweets has dropped
following the packaging revamp

Prior to the revamp, there were 76 fruit gums in a 170g packet - but that
figure has fallen to 67. 

In a similar way, the number of Fruit Pastilles has gone down from 44 goodies to only 39, while still costing a quid. 

A packet of Randoms now has 39 sweets having previously contained 41, while there
are ten fewer sweets found in Jelly Tots.

Speaking to The Sun, Fred Isaac of customer campaign group aspokesmansaid.com, said: 'If customers are getting fewer sweets the price should come down.'   


A spokesman for Rowntree's owner Nestle said production costs had gone up because of improvements to
the packaging which are now 'free standing, easier to open and resealable.' 

He told MailOnline: 'We have made changes to the packaging of
our Rowntree's sharing bags by investing in a new pouch format.


'Our full range across Fruit Pastilles, Fruit Gums, Jelly Tots, Tooty Frooties and Randoms, is now available in the pouch format at one single, consistent size.


'We think our sharing bags still represent excellent value after
these changes and we hope that people will continue to enjoy
our sweets in this new, more convenient packaging.'

It comes after it was revealed last month Easter Eggs had gone down in size yet customers were still having to fork out the same
to pay for their chocolate treat.

In some cases, the cost even went up despite the reduction in chocolate. 

And chocolate manufactures came under fire for their shrinking products
last year when a picture of ever-smaller Quality Street boxes
went viral on the internet.

A Facebook post showing how the size of the classic gift has been reduced since
the 1990s was shared thousands of times by outraged customers.


Last year, the confectionery giant slimmed down tubs of Quality Street from 820g to 780g
- a cut of about five chocolates - but it stayed at £5.


The tin is now less than half the size it was ten years ago
- when it weighed 1.7kg.

Earlier in the year, Cadbury's angered customers when its
multi-packs of six Creme Eggs were replaced with boxes of five - meaning every egg costs 57p rather than 51p.


And Cadbury's Curly Wurly went from five in a pack to four - but the
price stayed at 99p. 

At the same time, packs of Cadbury's Fingers were cut by 11g, which equates to around two fingers, to a new weight
of 114g.
