M&S has launched a very on-brand revamp of a classic Christmas treat.
The iconic high street retailer has left fans of its famous Percy Pig sweets in awe - releasing Percy Pig mince pies ready for Christmas.
Percy Pig sweets are one of the nation's most adored M&S products and there's so many ways to enjoy them - whether it's in a cocktail, a drool-worthy tray bake or drizzled onto pancakes in syrup form.
The Percymas Pies aren't your usual, beige coloured festive pies either. They're covered in a thick layer of bright pink fondant icing, topped off with Percy Pig himself.
And guess what? They're suitable for vegetarians too!
They're already on the shelves in M&S stores and are described as "pastry with a fruit filling, Percy Pig flavour sponge and pink fondant icing, topped with a Percy Pig sweet".
That's a lot of Percy - and of course the news of the sweet treat has left fans of the candy pig overjoyed.
