The unstoppable trend of 2026 is once again delivering, with an exciting seasonal treat.
Not sure which trend we’re talking about? Here are a few clues...
It’s been embraced by everyone from Haribo to Hershey, has crossed over into fashion and Formula 1, and is helping to drive some serious sales.
Guessed it yet? That’s right, we’re talking about confectionery’s favourite obsession, collaborations.
And this time it’s the cross-category collab of Terry’s Chocolate Orange and Baileys.
The two have previously joined forces for Christmas and are back “by popular demand”.
“For generations, Terry’s Chocolate Orange has been part of Christmas celebrations, so seeing people embrace our collaboration with Baileys last year was incredibly exciting,” says Mimi Williams, senior brand manager of Terry’s. “We’re delighted to bring it back, giving fans another chance to enjoy a new take on two of the season’s most indulgent treats.”
Collaborations dominate confectionery
The launch is further proof, if proof were needed, that collaborations are here to stay.
As brands look for ever more inventive ways to capture consumer attentions, limited-edition partnerships are proving popular as an effective way to generate excitement, spark curiosity and get people talking.
And, for big names like Terry’s Chocolate Orange and Baileys, collaborations also offer an opportunity to reach new shoppers while giving existing fans something fresh and new to try.
The timing is no coincidence either. With Christmas one of the biggest occasions of the year for confectionery and cream liqueurs, brands are pulling out all the stops to win over consumers looking for gifts, treats and festive indulgences.
With the Christmas countdown already underway, we expect to see many more collaborations hit the shelves. And we look forward to trying them.
