US EditionTesco Shoppers Say 'I Can't' After Newest £3 Update to Meal Deals
UNITED KINGDOM, AUG 4 – Tesco's limited edition birthday cake sandwich features sweet brioche bread and cream cheese icing, contains 31g of sugar, and is available in 1,000 UK stores for four weeks.
- Tesco released a limited edition Birthday Cake Sandwich priced at £3, discovered by a customer on August 4, 2025, in local stores nationwide.
- This release came shortly after M&S introduced a limited-edition strawberries and cream sandwich in June 2025, which quickly gained viral attention and sparked discussions about its sugary ingredients and whether it should be categorized as a sandwich or a cake.
- The Tesco sandwich is made with soft, brioche-like bread and includes a combination of cream cheese and strawberry jam, sparking mixed reactions from shoppers—some praise it, while others criticize it for being unnatural or too sweet.
- Critics called the product "utter filth" and a "diabetes sandwich," while fans described it as "delicious" or said it "actually surprises you," with social media posts fueling the conversation.
- The controversy suggests that Tesco's newest cake sandwich may reshape perceptions of meal deal offerings but may also limit its acceptance among traditional sandwich buyers.
