Crisp lovers can now get their hands on a new premium range from Walkers, with luxury flavours including black truffle and olive oil arriving in supermarkets.
The new crisps are slow-cooked with a thinner cut and more folds.
The popular crisp brand says the packaging is also premium, with customers able to see a gold interior as they reach into the packet.

A fourth flavour, Apple Cider Vinegar & Sea Salt, is also part of the range and will be exclusive to Tesco soon.

Walkers has confirmed that the new Gold range will be a permanent addition to its crisp portfolio.
Wayne Newton, senior marketing director of Walkers Snacks at PepsiCo, said: “Walkers Gold does exactly what the name promises.
“From the quality of the crisps, to the premium ingredients and flavours, right through to the beautiful gold packaging, every detail has been designed to deliver something really special.
“We’re so excited to give consumers another reason to love Walkers and to bring something new to the crisp aisle – offering a little luxury at an affordable price and still delivering the taste and crunch they know and love from Walkers.”
Other Walkers crisps include classic flavours like Ready Salted, Cheese & Onion, Prawn Cocktail, Roast Chicken, Smoky Bacon and Salt & Vinegar.
The crisp brand has a variety of ranges, including Oven Baked, Lightly, Max and Sensations.
