This is not a drill - Marks and Spencer are launching milk chocolate orange, and red velvet spread and we need them on our toast ASAP!

The season may have only just officially switched to autumn but everyone's focus is already firmly set on Christmas.

The festive period is a time of year when you can be unashamedly decadent at every meal of the day, but we can totally get on-board with the idea of starting the indulgence ahead of December...

If over the years you've been struggling to take your breakfast to new heights, Marks & Spencer have developed two perfect solutions.

Say hello to Milk Chocolate & Orange Spread. All the flavours of a Jaffa cake, or you know, those chocolate oranges that you need to give a good whack to unwrap, in spreadable form.

The chocolate spread costs £2.50 for a 200g jar and is perfect when you're looking for a treat topping to put on your toast or as a dip for fruit, marshmallows or pretzel sticks for a dessert.

For those of you out there with a really sweet tooth, you need to get your hands on a jar of Marks and Spencer's second exciting launch - red velvet curd.

According to the label its got all the flavours of a rich red velvet cake locked inside a 325g jar in spreadable form...

It's designed to be used as a dessert dip or in cakes but we're definitely going to give it a go on our toast or maybe even a crumpet!

The tangy curd helps cut through the intense chocolate and it's on sale for the reasonable price of £2.50 a jar.

Both sweet spreads are available in-store from today but sadly won't be available to buy online, so get down to your nearest M&S.

Don't wait around for Christmas to pick up your first jar, you need to try at least one to test if it tastes as it should, right?

Which new M&S spread do you like the sound of more, milk chocolate orange or red velvet? Head over to our Facebook page to share your thoughts and don't forget to tag a friend who needs to hear about this fantastic foodie news!
