25 years of Percy Pig!

HE’S the piggy sweet with a cult following — and this month M&S’s Percy Pig turns 25.

Designed for kids, loved by adults, Percy has been busy. From his ‘marriage’ to Penny with the introduction of Penny Pig sweets in 2013, and his gap year in 2014 — Globetrotting Percy packs added tiger and panda-shaped sweets — he is still a firm favourite.

More than ten million bags sell each year. Celebrate with Percy cupcakes (36 for £16, marksand spencer.com).
