Marks & Spencer has delighted fans by launching a Mac and Cheese toastie in its cafes.

The indulgent £5.25 ‘Cheese Louise’ toastie is available now in 350 cafes across the country.

It contains pasta tumbled in a four-cheese sauce of cave-aged Cheddar for richness, Pecorino for bite, Emmental for nutty sweetness and stringy Mozzarella for a perfect ooze, all sandwiched in thick slices of M&S sourdough bread and smothered in a mustard and onion butter.

The toastie uses the same sauce at the M&S Best Ever Mac & Cheese which launched late last year and became an instant hit.

The chain says it signifies a move away from Mac & Cheese simply being a side dish, as its gourmet renaissance shows it’s well and truly cemented as a must-eat pasta dish in its own right. 

Sales of M&S Best Ever Mac & Cheese have proved this popularity as over a million happy customers have enjoyed the dish since it launched in October. 

M&S has also seen consistently high sales across its entire Mac & Cheese range, from its mini bites to the Plant Kitchen vegan option, Made Without Wheat and classic varieties.
