British chocolate lovers have gone wild over two limited-edition Lindt Lindor flavours that are only sold in the US, sparking more than 2,000 reactions on social media.
The Hot Cocoa Milk Chocolate Truffles and Cinnamon Swirl White Chocolate Truffles were spotted at Target stores across the pond, leaving UK fans desperate to get their hands on them.
Food blog Newfoodsuk alerted shoppers to the tasty flavours via Facebook, stating: "The perfect Lindt Lindor does exist!"
"We need the cinnamon ones," responded one eager commenter, while another said that the hot cocoa variety "sounds banging".
Many initially thought the treats might be heading to British shelves and were left saddened.
"I'm gutted, I thought as it was a UK page, I stood a chance," one disappointed fan posted.
Others shared their envy of American shoppers, with one writing: "I wish we had more of what America gets!"
The Hot Cocoa variety offers a creamy, cosy twist on the classic formula, featuring Lindor's signature smooth milk shell and white chocolate filling, enhanced by a subtle note of vanilla.

The Cinnamon Swirl truffle takes things in a festive direction, wrapping up the comforting flavour of a cinnamon bun inside a white chocolate shell.
One lucky traveller who brought some back from the USA confirmed the hype is justified, writing: "The cinnamon ones are stunning."
A second fan who had also sampled them added: "I would love to try the Cinnamon Swirl – Hot Cocoa was really good."
Thankfully, while these limited-edition truffles are not widely available in British supermarkets, there is one way UK chocoholics can access the coveted treats without booking a flight.

"You can find them on the Chocolate Emporium site," commented one savvy chocolate lover.
Chocolate Emporium, an online retailer based in Brighton, imports both American flavours directly to UK customers.
The business was launched in 2015 by Paul Lever, a self-confessed chocoholic who got fed up with not being able to find his favourite holiday chocolate discoveries back home.
His mission was to create a luxury version of the old Woolworth's Pick & Mix experience, but online, letting shoppers buy their preferred flavours in whatever quantity they fancy.
The company now stocks hundreds of Lindor varieties, including plenty that aren't available in British shops, alongside treats from Ghirardelli, Niederegger and Monty Bojangles.
The Hot Cocoa Milk Chocolate Truffles are not currently stocked by Chocolate Emporium, though Hot Cocoa Dark & White Chocolate Lindt Truffles are available under Seasonal Staples.
Also in the festive range are Cinnamon Swirl White Chocolate Lindt Truffles.
