Marks & Spencer has launched a limited-edition Choc-o-Sandwich cake to commemorate the 80th Anniversary of VE Day.
The special teatime treat will see five per cent of sales donated to the Royal British Legion.
The cake has been designed for those planning to get together with loved ones or neighbours to mark the historic occasion.
Available for a limited time only, the commemorative cake can be found in M&S Foodhalls nationwide or via Ocado's online delivery service.

The cake is inspired by a beloved M&S recipe first sold over 60 years ago, bringing a taste of history to modern celebrations.
For this special occasion, M&S has revived the product under their classic St Michael brand, which will evoke fond memories for many long-time customers.
The limited-edition treat features original style packaging, embracing the vintage aesthetic that complements the VE Day anniversary theme.
The cake features layers of fluffy Victoria sponge as its base and is filled with rich strawberry jam, providing a sweet fruity element to complement the other flavours.
Generous amounts of vanilla clotted cream buttercream add a luxurious creamy texture between the sponge layers.
The entire creation is fully enrobed in thick, milk chocolate for an indulgent finish.
Customers have been quick to share their enthusiasm for the nostalgic cake on social media.
One user commented: "We have so many things in our house with St Michael's written on the bottom. This looks delicious, I can't wait to try it."
