GREGGS has announced its third vegan bake launch – the NEW Vegan Sausage, Bean and CheeZe Melt.

Following the sell-out of Greggs’ previous vegan launches, fans will now be able to order their pastry fix in shops from Thursday, August 5. 

The Vegan Sausage, Bean and CheeZe Melt – which will hit shelves in over 2,000 shops nationwide.

Greggs says the new product is "bursting with delicious ingredients" and is designed to mirror some of the iconic features of the original Sausage, Bean and Cheese Melt.

But instead of the classic filling, it’s loaded with delectable pieces of vegan sausage, grated original and mozzarella flavour vegan cheeZe, and of course tasty baked beans.

The North East-based bakery launched its Vegan Sausage Roll followed by the Vegan Steak Bake in 2020.

The Northern Echo:

Both drove huge levels of demand and created queues round the block, with over half of shops selling out within minutes on launch day.

To give customers the opportunity to beat the crowds and guarantee their first mouthful this year, Greggs now has its very own click+collect service on its website and app. Or for those that don’t want to leave the house or office, delivery is also available via Just Eat.

Hannah Squirrell, customer director at Greggs, said: “The latest addition to our menu gives customers another vegan friendly alternative to one of our most iconic menu items. 

"As we expand our vegan options with the launch of our new Vegan Sausage, Bean and CheeZe Melt, we mark another milestone as we continue with our journey to become our customers’ favourite destination for food-on-the-go.”

The new Vegan Sausage, Bean and CheeZe Melt (427kcal) will cost from £1.60 and will be available in all Greggs shops across the UK. Subject to availability.
