Subway launches Creme Egg sandwich

Only a select few of you will be able to try it

The fast food chain has launched the chocolatey treat as part of their Good Friday celebrations in the UK, but there will only be a limited amount with just 500 of the delicacy being made.

They will also be handed out for free at four Subway restaurants across the country at the branches in Tottenham Court Road, central London; Central Shopping Centre, Liverpool; Llansamlet Service Station, Swansea and Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow.

Each of those stores will have a limited supply of the six-inch sandwich which will be served on Italian white bread.

Rusty Warren, Senior New Product Development and Product Innovation Manager at Subway, said: "We're delighted to have collaborated with Cadbury this Easter.

"Our Italian White Bread and Cadbury Creme Eggs make the most flavoursome combination, a perfect seasonal treat.

"All the team at Subway are especially excited to see how those Subway fans with a sweet tooth respond to this delicious SubMelt."

Charlotte Docker, Brand Executive for Cadbury Creme Egg, added: "When Subway approached us to create this eggs-traordinary Submelt, we simply couldn't resist.

"The highly-anticipated Creme Egg season is in full swing and we're so excited to launch this innovative product with Subway as a final hoorah of the season.

"We can't wait for the response of those lucky enough to try this surprisingly delicious merging of sweet and savoury."
