Sweet Dreams Are Made of These
Swizzels is turning up the nostalgia with the launch of new Squashies and Love Hearts sandwich biscuits, now landing in Morrisons stores.
The sweet-inspired biccies combine crunchy biscuits with creamy fillings based on two of the brand's best-loved classics, giving shoppers yet another excuse to treat themselves in the snack aisle. It's a bold move into biscuits for the confectionery giant, and one that feels tailor-made for anyone who grew up swapping Love Hearts messages in the playground.
Tea and two biscuits? It would be rude not to.

Greggs Enters the Self-checkout Era
Greggs has officially stepped into the future with the launch of its first-ever self-service trial, allowing customers to scan, pay and grab their favourite bakes without needing to queue at a till.

While the technology may streamline the experience, there's still one thing no machine can solve: the temptation to leave with four extra sausage rolls you never planned to buy.
