M&S confirms popular cookies are coming back for 2026

M&S has been going viral over the last few years thanks to its chocolate-covered custard creams and milk chocolate cookies that shoppers can’t get enough of, with packets flying off the shelves.

The shop has confirmed the Christmas-inspired gingerbread and white chocolate cookies will be returning for 2026.

The cookies were first introduced to the bakery section in 2024 and came back for the festive period in 2025.

M&S bring back gingerbread and white chocolate cookies

M&S has a few flavours of its cookies that are available all year round, but items like the gingerbread and speckled egg cookies are only available for a few months.

The cookies are often hard to find in shops, as they sell out as soon as they are put on the shelves.

New Food Spotter UK on Instagram shared that the cookies will be back in a post.

The post was captioned: “@marksandspencerfood Gingerbread & White Chocolate Cookies are BACK this year!!!

“Will be in stores from Early September.”

The cookies are made with gingerbread flavours, white chocolate chunks, and a bit of salted caramel.

The cookies will be available from September onwards, and last year were priced at £3.25 for a pack of five.

Fans of the cookies were excited for their return, with many taking to the comments on social media.

One person said: “Thank god these are my fave.”

Another person said: “I actually can’t wait.

“These were the best things ever!”

Another user wrote: “No these can’t come back I’m gonna gain so much weight.”
