It’s been a landmark year for Colin the Caterpillar, everyone’s favourite edible insect.

Not only has he celebrated his 25th birthday, partied with David Beckham and graced more than 7 million birthday bashes worldwide in his lifetime... but he’s also finally entered the dating game.

This week, M&S started selling Connie the Caterpillar, Colin’s strawberry and chocolate flavoured beau, confirming that the two have struck up a romance on their shelves.

Connie comes with pink high tops, lipstick and a hair bow, as well as a pair of fluttery white chocolate lashes.

The high street giant says that she is made of an all butter chocolate sponge roll filled with delicious strawberry flavoured buttercream and is covered in some party-appropriate love heart confetti.

The the party-loving pair have already been spotted by shoppers sitting, side by side, in the supermarket.

Connie is sure to be a hit with celebrity Colin the Caterpillar fans Boris Johnson and David Cameron, and with wedding season finally here, we imagine there’ll be a few couples across the country who’ll want to tuck into these delicious sweethearts on their big day.

Both Colin and Connie cakes cost £7, and at that price, you’d be heartless to split these two lovebirds up.
