Pladis has launched a new addition to its McVitie’s Cake range: Club Orange Cake Crunchies – designed to “combine the best of cake, biscuits and chocolate in one tasty treat”.
Available now, McVitie’s Club Orange Cake Crunchies merges Club Orange with sponge cake, topped with chocolate-flavoured cream and crunchy biscuit pieces, then wrapped in milk chocolate.
Targeting consumers looking for a “lunchtime treat”, the new product has a projected retail sales value of £2m, and is available in a 5-pack at RSP £1.65.
Claire Hooper, Head of Marketing for McVitie’s Cakes at pladis said: “We’re thrilled to be launching McVitie’s Club Orange Cake Crunchies into the Cake category this year. We know consumers are continually searching for new snacking experiences, and this innovation lets us combine three things we know consumers love – cake, biscuits and chocolate – in one delicious treat.
“We’re confident the launch will be popular with McVitie’s fans and a great opportunity for retailers to showcase a new and innovative lunchtime treating consumption moment, and attract new shoppers into the cake category.”
