We’re delighted that these will now be sold in M&S stores across Scotland along with our traditional Scottish tablet bars.’

David Bates, Scotland head of region for the west of Scotland at M&S said: ‘We are extremely proud of our strong network of Scottish suppliers and we know our customers will be excited to see Lees of Scotland family favourites available at M&S.

‘M&S first began sourcing from Scottish food producers in the 1930s and we are delighted to see our supply base continue to grow.

‘Lees of Scotland’s commitment to providing high quality traditional Scottish confectionery is one of the many reasons we consider them a great fit for M&S, and we’re sure our customers will be excited to pick up a delicious macaroon bar as part of their M&S Food shop.’
