While Halloween has not even come around yet, Christmas fans are excited after Marks and Spencer rolled out its range of festive food early this year – from biscuit tins to picky bits and festive fillings in sandwiches
Supermarkets are already gearing up for the festive season with Christmas food products hitting the shelves. Marks and Spencer has thrilled customers by announcing new items have recently arrived in stores, marking the earliest release date for its festive food range.
The retailer confirmed the availability of a variety of biscuit boxes in stores this year. In an Instagram post shared on Monday [October 14], M&S showcased its stunning range, which includes a Letters for Santa tin, a Santa Jack-In-A-Box, a Festive Magic Projector tin, the Plant Kitchen light up tin, and the Made Without light up tin.
Each tin is packed with delicious treats, such as salted caramel and chocolate chunk cookies, all butter shortbread, and vegan dark chocolate, cranberry and orange cookies.
The popular store said: “From our collectable light up houses and playful post boxes, to our magical projectors, we’re famous for the most gorgeously giftable tins here at M&S.
“Aren’t these cute,” wrote one customer. “Omg one of each please,” insisted another eager shopper. “Love them, always special,” commented another.
