Chocolate, Strawberry & Pistachio Creme Sandwich hits M&S stores
M&S has released a new Chocolate, Strawberry & Pistachio Creme Sandwich - and it's available in foodhalls now!
Marks & Spencer (M&S) has expanded its premium food-on-the-move range with the launch of a new Chocolate, Strawberry & Pistachio Creme Sandwich, alongside the returning, viral Red Diamond Strawberry & Creme Sandwich. They’re in stores now.
The new viral sandwich from M&S
The New Menu Addition: Launched just in time for Wimbledon, the new sandwich features cocoa-enriched bread, Fairtrade dark chocolate sauce, seasonal British strawberries, and a roasted pistachio crème.
The Return of a Cult Favourite: Back for its second year, the original Red Diamond Strawberry & Creme Sandwich returns following a massive success last year, where it sold over one million units in just five weeks.
£900k Factory Upgrade: The pistachio innovation was unlocked by a £900,000 supplier investment from Greencore, who opened a highly specialised, dedicated nut production facility in January 2026 at its Northampton “fortress factory.”
Strategic Growth: The rollout serves as a live example of M&S Food’s transformation strategy, which relies on long-term supplier partnerships and exclusive factory capabilities to drive market-leading product innovation.
What have M&S said about their new Chocolate, Strawberry and pistachio cream sandwich?
Alex Freudmann, Managing Director of M&S Food, said: “Our long-term supplier partnerships are central to the transformation of M&S Food. They give us the confidence and capability to keep innovating at pace, while investing with us in the quality, consistency and scale our customers expect from us. Greencore’s dedicated nut production facility at Northampton is a great example of that partnership in action - creating new capability in one of our fortress factories and helping us bring distinctive, market-leading products like our Chocolate, Strawberry & Pistachio Creme Sandwich to customers.”
Dalton Philips, CEO of Greencore Group, said: “The new dedicated nut production facility at Greencore Northampton is a great example of what a genuine long-term partnership looks like in practice. We invested in the capability, M&S brought the product vision, and the result is something customers are really going to love. I am so proud of what we have delivered together.”
