The Squashies Cheesecake Slices have been created in partnership between The English Cheesecake Company and Swizzles in the UK to offer consumers a sweet, delicious and familiar dessert option.
The cake is inspired by the classic Swizzels Drumstick Squashies candies, and features fruity cheesecake layers inspired by the soft, foamy candies. The cake is topped with a white chocolate drizzle along with pink sprinkles, while the crunchy biscuit base offers a touch of additional sweetness and texture in every bite.
The Squashies Cheesecake Slices are available now in the UK at Sainsbury's, but are a limited time offering. The cheesecake dessert responds to the popularity of co-branded treats as consumers gravitate towards new yet familiar ways to satisfy their sweet tooth.
