Percy Pig fans will be over the moon to hear M&S is launching yet another product inspired by the famous pig-shaped jelly sweet.

Yes, hot on the heels of the Percymas Pies and the Percy Pig Mini Bites comes yet more delicious pig-themed news.

And, this time, we have to admit, we’re pretty excited to tuck in.

Yes, come the middle of this week, you’ll be able to get your hands on a Percy Pig Swiss Roll.

What did M&S say about the launch?

A rep for M&S told Entertainment Daily it’s “everything you could want” from a cake.

And, after one look at the pictures, we have to say that we wholeheartedly agree.

A pink fluffy sponge is rolled with Percy-flavoured buttercream and studded with chewy fruit jelly pieces.

It’s even sprinkled with edible pink glitter for that extra-special festive touch.

An M&S rep revealed: “Perhaps you want to try a slice of Percy’s perfectly pink, swirly whirly Percy Pig Swiss Roll?

Offering you everything you could want from a sweet cake treat, but with Percy’s unmistakable twist of all things pink and delicious.

‘Mary Berry, eat your heart out!’

The rep added: “This unique take on a classic sponge is mouth-watering to eat as it comes, but also makes a great base layer for perhaps a show-stopping trifle or pudding, should you want to wow the family with your Percy creations this winter.
