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.
One of Leeds' most iconic brands is expanding with two city centre openings.
Coffee lovers, you're going to love this one.
North Star Coffee Roasters are one of the early pioneers of specialty coffee in the North of England and among the UK’s first B Corp-certified coffee roasters.
They've been keeping the people of Leeds awake since 2013, and you'll find their coffee across the country as well as at their current city centre locations.
One of their brand-new locations inside the Victoria Quarter will be opening next Monday 1 June.
Their new kiosk will be located outside Jo Malone London and marks the brand’s third site in Leeds.

To celebrate the launch, North Star will be giving away 50 free coffees a day from Tuesday 2 June until Friday 5 June - a total of 200 free drinks across the opening week. Customers will be able to claim any coffee from the menu, with one free drink per person available on a first come, first served basis, each day.
Their other new site is expected to be on Great George Street, and we'll keep you updated with any news on that one as and when we know more.
Speaking about the opening, Holly Kragiopoulos, Co-founder of North Star, said: “Opening a third site in the centre of Leeds feels incredibly special for us. Leeds has always been at the heart of North Star, so being able to bring our coffee into Victoria Quarter is a huge milestone.
"We wanted to celebrate by giving something back to the city and welcoming both loyal regulars and new customers with free coffee throughout our opening week.”

Silver's Bakehouse is finally here, and it's just as fabulous as we'd hoped.
Just when you thought Leeds’ favourite sandwich spot couldn't get any better, they go and open a bakery.
Silver's Bakehouse has opened its beautiful pastel green doors today over in Farsley to queues of excited fans eager to get their first taste.
So, what's on offer at Silver's Bakehouse?

Well, as masterminds of the almighty sandwich you'll be happy to know you can still get one here. However, their iconic sub sarnies have had an Italian makeover and are now served in fresh, springy sourdough which is baked onsite.
Elsewhere on the menu you'll find brown butter buttermilk brownies (try saying that three times), a range of delicious cookies, sausage rolls, soft amaretti biscuits and Dark Arts tiramisu.
There's also a fab selection of Italian drinks on offer in a swanky new fridge, as well as a coffee menu so you can pick a brew to go hand in hand with your chosen baked good.

The interior is just as gorgeous, complete with yellow walls, red tiles and a mirror hanging above the baker's table so you can really see all the magic happen.
And trust us, it is magic.
There's a couple of benches outside so you can plonk yourself in the sunshine to enjoy your sarnie, which is what we'll be doing in this glorious bank holiday sunshine.

You can really tell this is a proper labour of love, and Chris and the team have done a cracking job of keeping that Silver's spirit in there.
Go and say hello to congratulate them on this fabulous new opening, it's a great addition to Farsley and the Leeds foodie scene.
