What does Marks and Spencer’s Sticky Toffee Pudding Trifle cost?
This sweet treat will set you back £15. Described on the M&S website as “two classic desserts combine in our epic Sticky Toffee Pudding Trifle”, it’s a spin on the classic British trifle.
The product description continues: “”Layers of rich toffee sauce, fresh whipped cream, luxurious vanilla custard and caramelised sponge are topped with sticky toffee sponge cubes, chocolate curls and butterscotch pieces.”
Unlike many trifles, which utilise gelatine, this trifle is vegetarian-friendly. However, nut and peanut allergy sufferers must avoid it completely as it isn’t suitable for them.
Despite its allure, the cost did raise eyebrows among some consumers. One person confessed: “I didn’t know it was £15. Got to the till with it today, scanned it and gave it back to the assistant. Absolutely not.”
Another simply stated: “£15 though”, accompanied by a shocked emoji. A third echoed the sentiment, saying: “Wasn’t paying £15 though.”
For those willing to splash out, the trifle is available for purchase online through Ocado, or you can pop into your local M&S store to grab one.
