An Ever-Expanding Range
Colin the Caterpillar is a national institution. He is more than just a birthday cake. The M&S mascot has a product empire that extends far beyond the original chocolate log, covering a vast range of confectionery that is mostly fruity and chewy.
Today you can buy *Colin the Caterpillar Softies*, *Cola Gums*, *Cherry Gums*, and even *Sourtastic* and *Sour Stomps* variants. The sweets aisle is his territory. The core product remains the centrepiece, but the sheer volume of spin-offs shows a brand that rarely stands still. It’s a huge portfolio.
A New Cake Format
This new concept moves Colin back to the bakery section, but with a significant twist. It isn’t another cake roll. The mockup proposes a different format entirely: a boxed, shareable sponge cake. This is a departure from the iconic caterpillar shape that defines the main cake and the popular *Mini Colin the Caterpillar Cakes*.
The packaging shows a square slice of layered sponge, topped with thick fudge icing and Colin’s familiar white chocolate face. It is a more traditional celebration cake. The caption that accompanied the image read, “Colin the Caterpillar is officially a chocoholic with this Double Chocolate Fudge Sponge Cake! Who needs a slice?”.
A Focus on Fudge
The flavour here is an intensification of the original. The classic Colin is a chocolate sponge with a milk chocolate coating and chocolate buttercream. “Double Chocolate Fudge” suggests something richer and denser. This flavour choice aligns the cake with indulgent, American-style bakery trends, moving away from the simple character-cake formula.
It also provides a stark contrast to the dominant flavour profile of the wider Colin range. While the confectionery side explores sour apple, cherry, and cola, this concept doubles down on pure chocolate. It plants a flag firmly in decadent territory. The target is clearly the serious chocolate enthusiast.
What the real range looks like
The genuine M&S Colin the Caterpillar range is extensive, but focuses heavily on confectionery like Colin the Caterpillar Softies, Sourtastic sweets, and various Fruit Gums. This Double Chocolate Fudge concept moves Colin back into the cake aisle, but swaps the classic log for a new boxed sponge format.
