Oh my days, that looks amazing. Is it made with fresh cream?I am also from the UK too, but for almost 30 years (I'm 29 now) my parents have always bought our birthday cakes from the same family bakery in Golders Green ( Carmelli's ). The last one we ordered. My best memories as a kid include running straight to the fridge first thing in the morning the next day for left over cake.

I only buy food items I want to give as gifts from M&S like their shortbread tins at Christmas. I wouldn't do a full shop there.The cake jars are ÂŁ4 this is why I'm a secret eater.
Yes! They honestly haven't paid me to advertise for them, but this is me as a fat one year.Oh my days, that looks amazing. Is it made with fresh cream?
I go most weeks and buy things I don't need, then I complain about the price. I think I'm a pretty typical M&S shopper, we like a good moan. Haven't seen the cake jars yet, but I'd have to hide them at the back of the fridge.I only buy food items I want to give as gifts from M&S like their shortbread tins at Christmas.

As long you enjoy it hun I don't see the problem. Please time how long it takes before it is found. xDI go most weeks and buy things I don't need, then I complain about the price.

Last time I bought them they didn't make it out of the car and it's only a 15 minute drive so getting to the back of the fridge shows amazing constraint. I can highly recommend M&S Almond biscuits, they did make it out of the car but not into the cupboard.I go most weeks and buy things I don't need, then I complain about the price.

I agree.I find it bizarre that M&S are being seen at the villains in all of this. Aldi aren't some poor little company being bullied by someone much bigger. They are a huge multinational company that have made a business model out of taking the successful products of others, copying it to be almost indistinguishable and selling it for cheaper. I hope they finally get what's coming to them. I would imagine a lot of the hate for M&S is inverse snobbery as of course the middle class shop HAS to be the baddies and the place that sells cheap food to low income families have to be the goodies.
To be honest that could be said for m&s who have been accused of nabbing things from smaller producers to recreate in their own brand.They are a huge multinational company that have made a business model out of taking the successful products of others, copying it to be almost indistinguishable and selling it
Aldi are global these days as well as Europe theyâre in USA,China and Australia so itâs probably bigger than M&S these days. The snobbery statement is very true. As soon as you say youâve done some food shopping at either M&S or Waitrose youâre automatically labelled as a Tory voting middle class snob. Personally for my needs I canât rely on Aldi/lidl. I get itâs great for some people but some people need to stop being so pressed about where a person buys their groceries.I find it bizarre that M&S are being seen at the villains in all of this.

Even compared to Cecil? He seems to win the most taste testsWe use any celebration to buy a Colin. The others just arenât as good
Iâm not posh enough to shop in Waitrose, so no. Iâve never had a bite of Cecil.Even compared to Cecil? He seems to win the most taste tests
