Aussie Shoppers Rejoice as Beloved British Sweets Arrive
14 Nov
Summary
- Marks & Spencer's Percy Pigs finally launching in Australia
- Fans have long relied on overpriced imports or limited-edition dupes
- Aldi's Katja gummies were the closest thing to the real deal
On November 14, 2025, Australian shoppers are eagerly anticipating the arrival of one of Britain's most beloved sweets - Marks & Spencer's Percy Pigs. For years, fans have had to settle for overpriced imports, international relatives, or limited-edition "dupe" versions that sell out in hours.
However, recent cryptic online hints have all but confirmed that the real Percy Pigs and Colin the Caterpillar sweets will finally make their Aussie debut in November. Shoppers first took note on November 13, when the official Percy Pig Instagram account teased that the duo were about to embark on a new adventure Down Under. This sparked a frenzy of excitement, with British expats and candy lovers flooding social media with emotional reactions.
The excitement only grew when a popular food blogger revealed that the Percy and Colin snacks would be launching at Coles supermarkets on November 19 for $6 each. Marks & Spencer's Percy Pigs have long been considered the "holy grail" of UK confectionery - soft, fruity, and chewy. Until now, Aussie fans have had to settle for "dupe" versions like Aldi's Katja gummies, which consistently sold out in hours whenever they hit shelves.
