Subway and Cadbury have teamed up to launch a six-inch sub sandwich filled with melted Creme Eggs for Easter.
With Easter celebrations fully underway, the fast food chain and the confectionary company have joined forces to launch the, rather bizarre, chocolate sandwich creation – named the SubMelt with Cadbury Creme Egg.
Just in time for Good Friday, and if you’re lucky, you could get your hands one of these limited-edition subs for free.
There’s a bit of a catch, though, as not only are there only 500 of the SubMelt with Cadbury Creme Egg being made, but they’re only available in a select few Subway branches.
The six-inch subs will be being handed out for free at four restaurants on 7 April (Good Friday) – Tottenham Court Road in London, Central Shopping Centre in Liverpool, Llansamlet Service Station in Swansea, and Sauchiehall Street in Glasgow.

So, how did the SubMelt with Cadbury Creme Egg actually come about then?
Well, we haven’t been given much background context, but what we do know is that Subway has admitted it came up with the idea and approached the iconic chocolate maker to make the collaboration happen.
“We’re delighted to have collaborated with Cadbury this Easter,” explains Rusty Warren – Senior New Product Development and Product Innovation Manager at Subway UK.
“Our Italian White Bread and Cadbury Creme Eggs make the most flavoursome combination, a perfect seasonal treat, and all the team at Subway are especially excited to see how those Subway fans with a sweet tooth respond to this delicious SubMelt.”
Cadbury says it “couldn’t resist” the chance to team up with Subway for the Easter creation.

“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,” added Charlotte Docker – Brand Executive for Cadbury Creme Egg.
“We can’t wait for the response of those lucky enough to try this surprisingly delicious merging of sweet and savoury.”
Each participating Subway branch will only have a limited number of the sandwiches chocked full of Cadbury’s beloved chocolate treat available.
Basically, you’ll need to be quick if you’re keen to try the creation before it goes.

Award-winning Leeds restaurant announces shock closure just months after opening
Clementine Hall
Emba in Leeds will be closing its doors with the owner blaming rising costs and pressure on the hospitality sector.
Back in April last year, one of Leeds' top restaurants The Owl closed its doors.
Run by renowned Chef Liz Cottam, The Owl was reimagine into Emba - a trendy restaurant tat bridged 'the gap between cosy bar and vibrant dining room'.
To open Emba, Cottam opened a Crowdfunder where supporters would be awarded with prizes such as VIP dinners and merch depending on how much they donated.
But sadly just months after opening, Emba is to close permanently.
Cottam confirmed the sad news with a statement shared with customers over the weekend, saying she was completely "heartbroken".
She said: “This is no longer the right time to own independent restaurants like Emba,” she said. “Under the current conditions they cannot survive and the recent budget confirmed what so many of us already knew: no meaningful help is coming for hospitality.
"The experience of being here and the harsh financial reality of running a business here no longer stack up.
"Being award winning, popular, admired and loved no longer means profitable and as an industry if we’re honest most of us have not truly been okay since Covid."
She signed off the statement promising to return to the restaurant world, she said: “What I do know is this, I am not done. I will keep cooking, keep creating and keep finding ways to do the thing I love.”
