marmite chocolateLove it or hate it, Marmite chocolate is making its way back to confectionary shelves nationwide. Answering the nation’s call for its return, the ‘Very Peculiar’ milk chocolate bar, made with a hint of Marmite, is set to mystify tastebuds once again.

Joanne O’Riada, Marmite brand manager, comments:

“Arguably ‘Very Peculiar’ sparked up the biggest love/hate debate of any Marmite product when is first launched. The chocolate bars flew off the shelves and fans have been calling for its return ever since. Even if it’s not to everyone’s taste, it will certainly intrigue all chocolate lovers.”

The 100g chocolate is available from Sainsbury’s, BHS, Firebox.com, Amazon, Menkind, Topshop and Independents from about now with a price of £3.

Marmife

marmifeMarmite has launched the Marmife – a tool designed to get every smidgen of the nation’s favourite spread out of the jar.

Created due to overwhelming demand from disgruntled fans unable to relish every last drop of Marmite, the Marmife is the product of an intense 18 month development period.

Marmite spokesperson, Joanne ORiada, says: “We’ve had comments from our Facebook community about the difficulty people have in getting all their Marmite out of the jar. Now, finally, we have a solution that reaches the spots other utensils just can’t get to.”

The silicone spatula is shaped around a steel core to give it the balance and weight required to get into the hard-to-reach corners of a 125g and 250g jar.

Victoria Jackson from design team Kimm & Miller comments: “We’ve spent ages staring at the bottom of the jar to work out the best solution and I’ve got to say, it’s been a real labour of love. After 15 re-designs to get the Marmife just right, I think we’ve finally done it!”

The Marmife pack is available exclusively at Debenhams, with an RRP of £13.99. It includes the Marmife, a 250g jar of Marmite and The Little Book of Marmite Tips.
