M&S Percy Pig Dessert Sauce 290g x 2 Pack

Product Information

In fact, there's so much that I even discovered that there was a controversial ice cream in the range once I got home and it was too late to go back. After fitting in a quick workout between lunch and dinner because my body was crying out for me to do something remotely healthy, it was time for the final meal of a day.

The centre of the pancakes also had some sort of sauce inside - I presume another Percy Pig flavoured addition - but again this was just enough for a nice subtle surprise.I felt fairly sick within an hour of breakfast, and waited for the feeling to subdue a bit before trying to tackle my next meal. I have officially put myself off of Percy Pigs for the time being and I can't stomach the little guy anymore. I was also pleasantly surprised by the 'phizzy pop' - I'm not a fizzy or sugary drink person and exclusively use them as a mixer but again the flavour was subdued and didn't taste too sweet or sugary at all.

In news that shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone, I don't think I'll be doing that for a very long time. Thankfully this was by far the best 'meal' of the day, despite being another thing that's more of an after-dinner dessert. I had heard things about these pancakes and seen them absolutely everywhere as the Percy hype continued with these newely released items ahead of Pancake Day later. When I came to have lunch, I realised I'd left about half a glass of the phizzy pop for breakfast so I took it to finish off with my pizza.It was definitely down to the fact that the cupcake and the biscuits themselves were made from a normal plain batter and hadn't been Percy-fied with that pink, sugary taste that's now so disgusting to me. Instead I picked up a pack of two cupcakes and the Percy and Penny biscuits to make up for it, even if it's not the most substantial of meals.

I don't think I'd recreate this exact meal again and I'd add in some more non-Percy flavours to mix it up but it was actually enjoyable until I gave up, and even after I'd decided to stop after the first two-thirds I kept going back to pick at a bit more. Most importantly, they had zero traces of the actual taste of Percy Pig, it was just a plain biscuit with coloured icing and I lapped it up after a day of pancakes and pizza deliberately created with the same flavour as the original sweets. I'm not a huge Percy Pig fan, I would never have bought the extensive range of items beyond the sweets themselves was it not for this challenge and to be honest, I probably won't ever again. For lunch, it was a 'here's one I made earlier' meal as I cut myself a couple of slices of the Percy Pig pizza cookie I baked yesterday in preparation for today's challenge.

Obviously this had to be served up on a pink plate, and the flavoured fizzy drink went into a champagne flute to add to the luxurious weekend brunch vibe, because an entirely pink, pig sweet-themed breakfast is the height of elegance. I'm sorry to say that the meal wasn't 100 per cent Percy - I had to add the strawberries to break up the triple (quadruple with the drink) Percy Pig flavour and give my taste buds something fresh and healthy. This was a pleasant surprise especially after yesterday's ordeal - dare I say I actually enjoyed the first slice before I felt sick again and gave the second slice to someone else. The cupcake was just as good for this very reason with a plain vanilla sponge and icing that had been coloured pink but thankfully not flavoured.

I'm very excited for a day of eating only savoury food tomorrow with not a drop of sugar to be seen, not even in my coffee.I got about two-thirds of the way through the stack before I gave up but the pancakes and dessert sauce were delicious, with the Percy flavour actually quite subtle and not overpowering at all. With a text sent to my PT warning her not to worry if my meals for the day looked strange, I constructed myself a tower of three Percy Pig pancakes, topped with the dessert sauce, sweets and strawberries.

I can't take credit for this alone as I saw someone take on this challenge on TikTok recently and I had no idea how they pulled it off. Of course I realise the cupcakes wouldn't be Percy Pig-themed at all was the little pig not sat atop the icing but you can understand that I never want to see or eat him again, at least not for a while.
