We just tried Tesco's viral 'birthday cake' sandwich – and we have mixed thoughts
M&S no doubt started the latest food trend when it launched its viral strawberry and creme sando earlier this summer. Now, Tesco have unveiled its own version of the hybrid sweet treat: the birthday cake sandwich. Celebrating 30 years of the Tesco Clubcard, the limited-edition sandwich is available in more than 1,000 stores nationwide - but only until 31 August. M&S's sandwich became so popular it daily sold out in most stores across the UK, and there's similar hype mounting for Tesco's take. The idea of a sweet sandwich is derived from the Japanese fruit sando, a popular snack that includes fresh fruit, sliced white bread, and fresh whipped cream. This isn't the first time Tesco has nodded to the signature treat –14 years ago, the supermarket chain launched a strawberries and cream sandwich to mark Wimbledon. But its latest offering has a playful spin thanks to its strawberry jam and cream cheese filling with a colourful sprinkling of rainbow confetti. Better yet, it costs £3 and is included in Tesco's office-favourite meal deal (a main, side and drink for just £3.60). But is it a nostalgic homage to childhood birthday parties or a sickly addition to the meal deal line-up? Four of our team testers at IndyBest swapped their usual sarnie for the new birthday sando – here are our (mixed) thoughts.

How Putin's ‘secret daughter' lives lavish life in exile as mum went from cleaner to millionaire after Vlad ‘affair'
There, she works at two anti-war art galleries while launching thinly veiled attacks on Mad Vlad VLADDY'S GIRL How Putin's 'secret daughter' lives lavish life in exile as mum went from cleaner to millionaire after Vlad 'affair' IN the shadow of one of the world's biggest tyrants, she lived like a princess - jet-setting in private planes, dripping in designer gear, and sipping champagne behind Gucci facemasks. Now, Vladimir Putin's rumoured secret daughter has seemingly turned her back on her gilded past — and on the man alleged to be her father. Advertisement 12 Elizaveta Krivonogikh is rumoured to be Putin's secret love child 12 Elizaveta, 22, sports a designer facemask in pictures posted to her social media Credit: Instagram 12 She is said to be Vlad's offspring with his former long-term lover Svetlana Krivonogikh (pictured) Credit: Proekt Media 12 The Kremlin has always denied that Putin has any relation to Elizaveta Credit: Getty Elizaveta Krivonogikh, 22 – also known as Luiza Rozova and now Elizaveta Rudnova - is now living in self-imploded exile in Paris. There, she works at two anti-war art galleries while launching thinly veiled attacks on Putin, blasting the "man who took millions of lives and destroyed mine". She hasn't named the Russian despot directly — but the target of her cryptic fury couldn't be clearer. She recently wrote on her private Telegram channel Art of Luiza: "It's liberating to be able to show my face to the world again. Advertisement "It reminds me of who I am and who destroyed my life." From Gucci to guilt Born in 2003 during Putin's first term in office, Elizaveta was the result — according to persistent allegations — of a clandestine affair between the then-rising Kremlin strongman and Svetlana Krivonogikh, a former cleaner turned multimillionaire. Svetlana, now in her 40s, went from scrubbing floors to owning a stake in sanctioned Rossiya Bank and a property empire worth over $100 million. She also owns a raunchy St Petersburg nightclub, Leningrad Centre, known for its erotic shows. Advertisement Elizaveta grew up drenched in luxury - private jets, exclusive nightclubs, and designer wardrobes. She would flaunt her life of privilege on Instagram while Russia grappled with poverty and pandemic chaos. But in early 2022, just before Russia launched its brutal invasion of Ukraine, she abruptly vanished from Russian social media. Putin's prized nuke sub base 'catastrophically' close to epicenter of 8.8 megaquake The Paris pivot She re-emerged in Paris under a new name - Elizaveta Rudnova - reportedly in a bid to sever ties with her past. Advertisement Ukrainian TV later claimed she was living in the French capital with a passport under the name Rudnova, allegedly ditching the patronymic Vladimirovna, which would confirm her father's name as Vladimir. Her new surname is a likely nod to the late Oleg Rudnov, one of Putin's longtime cronies. 12 Elizaveta used to show her wealth on social media - but her account was deleted when the Ukraine war began Credit: East2West 12 She posted a series of glamorous shots of her luxury lifestyle Credit: Instagram Advertisement 12 Designer fashion features heavily on Elizaveta's Instagram account Credit: Instagram 12 Luxury-lover Elizaveta's posts showcase her champagne lifestyle Credit: Instagram Graduating from the prestigious ICART School of Cultural and Art Management in 2024, she has since taken on a role at two Parisian galleries — L Galerie in Belleville and Espace Albatros in Montreuil — both known for hosting anti-war and dissident exhibitions. Her responsibilities reportedly include curating exhibitions and producing video content. Advertisement But her presence in Paris's dissident art circles has sparked fury. 'She looks like Putin' Not everyone in the expat art world is ready to forgive — or forget. Artist Nastya Rodionova, who fled Russia in 2022, publicly severed ties with the two galleries upon learning of Elizaveta's involvement. She posted on Facebook: "It is inadmissible to allow a person who comes from a family of beneficiaries of [Putin's] regime to come into confrontation with the victims of that regime. Advertisement 12 The 22-year-old is reportedly working at two art galleries in Paris Credit: Social media 12 She also allegedly ditched her tyrant dad's surname Credit: Elizaveta Krivonogikh 12 In a cryptic post, Elizaveta blasted the 'man who took millions of lives and destroyed mine' Credit: East2West "My personal answer in this case is no." Advertisement Dmitry Dolinsky, director of L Association which runs both galleries, stood by Elizaveta. He told The Times: 'She looks like Putin but so do 100,000 other people. I haven't seen a DNA test." Still, the circumstantial evidence is hard to ignore — the timing of her birth, her mother's overnight fortune, and the uncanny facial resemblance which an AI expert pegged at 70 per cent similarity to Putin. Who is Luiza Rozova? LUIZA Rozova, born Elizaveta Krivonogikh, is the 22-year-old rumoured illegitimate daughter of Vladimir Putin. She is allegedly the love child from an affair between the dictator and his former cleaner, Svetlana Krivonogikh. These claims were first made by the Kremlin-critical investigative project "Proekt" back in 2020. She often used to share details of her lavish life on Instagram, until the page was suddenly taken down around the time of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Luiza is reported to have moved to Paris and graduated from a course at the ICART School of Cultural and Art Management in June 2024. She posts in a private Telegram channel called "Art of Luiza", where she has made allusions to her reported father. Rewriting the story Once the toast of Moscow's rich kids scene, Luiza now presents herself as a politically conscious exile. Advertisement Her posts have shifted from flaunting Miu Miu and Maison Margiela to cryptic denouncements of tyranny and war. "The man who took millions of lives and destroyed mine," she wrote, pointedly. She also lamented: "I can't make an extra lap around my beloved St. Petersburg. "I can't visit my favourite places and establishments." Advertisement An older post from 2021 saw her share an extraordinary 'make love, not war' message, in the wake of street protests which saw 5,100-plus arrests by heavily armed police. Her transformation hasn't gone unnoticed — nor has her attempt to claim space in the anti-Putin resistance, even as her background screams privilege. But some, like Rodionova, still see her as as a symbol of the very elite that profited from Putin's long reign — a hidden child from a hidden empire. 12 Svetlana Krivonogikh is a shareholder in a bank sanctioned by the West due to its close links to the Russian president Credit: Proekt Media Advertisement Vlad's 'lover' Her mother, Svetlana, has never publicly confirmed the affair, but has become a posterwoman for the sudden, unexplained enrichment of Putin's inner circle. She was sanctioned by the UK in 2023 and is said to own assets across Moscow, St Petersburg, and Sochi. When independent outlet Proekt first exposed the story, Putin's spokesman Dmitry Peskov said he'd 'never heard anything' about Krivonogikh — an evasion that only intensified speculation. Advertisement Putin, who officially recognises only two daughters from his previous marriage, has never acknowledged Luiza — nor denied her.

Orlando Bloom blasted as an ‘idiot' for ‘inappropriate' beach snap of Daisy, 4, & Katy Perry is nowhere to be seen
Plus, Orlando's jokey response to Katy Perry being seen with Justin Trudeau PARENTING DEBATE Orlando Bloom blasted as an 'idiot' for 'inappropriate' beach snap of Daisy, 4, & Katy Perry is nowhere to be seen Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) ORLANDO Bloom has come under fire for sharing a naked photo of his four-year-old daughter Daisy Dove Bloom on the beach. The Hollywood actor, 48, later deleted the snap, before resharing it with an emoji covering her. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up The photo had been part of a sweet carousal of images of Orlando spending quality time with Daisy, who she shares with ex-fiancée Katy Perry. 10 Orlando Bloom has been blasted for sharing a naked beach photo of Daisy, four, before reuploading it with a heart emoji Credit: instagram/@orlandobloom 10 The Hollywood actor shared a series of photos with his daughter and a pal Credit: instagram/@orlandobloom 10 Orlando also shared a photo of Daisy playing with a kite on the beach Credit: instagram/@orlandobloom However, many berated him for the "inappropriate" photo, which showed him carrying Daisy into the ocean to go swimming. Hours before he had uploaded the image without a yellow love heart emoji covering her. Taking to Reddit, one shocked person wrote: 'Some parents are such idiots. They don't post this child's face on social media, so they do understand privacy but then post a naked pic. Make it make sense.' Another agreed: 'I can't help but feel like you have to be so out of touch to think it's okay to post a naked photo of your daughter, to a huge fanbase, and not consider the repercussions. 'I can understand how that might be a meaningful photo for a parent, but not on the interweb for millions to see.' And a third added: 'Poor thing. I know having everything you desire would be nice, but having a celeb as a parent sounds like a special kind of headache for kids. Having a guardian so detached from reality is scary.' Meanwhile, one pointed out: 'I'm not saying him posting it was ill-intent or anything, but there are people on social media who will use it for ill-intent and inappropriate reasons.' However, many people were quick to defend the Lord of the Rings actor and said it was 'innocent.' One wrote: 'She's gonna be four… I don't understand everyone's comments here. She's going swimming with her father. Heartbroken Katy Perry told pals in January that Orlando Bloom relationship was OVER - as star removes engagement ring 'Again she is four. This is not, not a normal thing… he covered her butt in the picture.. 'I used to run around naked until I was almost seen and a lot of the kids I grew up with did also. 'It's innocent and the fact that people are trying to make it weird ARE WEIRD AF.' And one said: 'Jeez my childhood photos would have had loads of stickers over them, bare butts everywhere.' In the other snaps, Orlando shared Daisy running along the beach flying a kite. And one showed him and Daisy joined by a male friend and a young boy overlooking the ocean, before they headed to the beach to play with a bucket and spade. The caption on the series of snaps was 'Some fun being had [sun emoji]', with the other images being clothed. 10 Orlando split with ex-fiancee Katy Perry this year.

The US Sun exclusively reported how the politician was spotted at Katy's Montreal gig - amid fears from her pals over her new connection. Teenage Dream songstress Katy, who is single after recently splitting from fiancé Orlando, is on tour in Canada and had dinner with divorced Justin - the former Prime Minister of Canada - on Monday evening. Orlando and Katy started dating in 2016 and got engaged three years later. However, The Sun understands they had difficult conversations about their future over Christmas and in January but struggled to make a firm decision. 10 Katy was 'spotted on a date' with former Canadian PM Justin Trudeau Credit: Getty 10 Orlando, 48, commented on a tongue in cheek AI post which suggested he too was dating a former politician Credit: 10 Justin was recently spotted at Katy Perry's Montreal concert dancing and singing Credit: @ridmi/TMX He was seen beaming in photos published by TMZ as he chatted to the mum of one while dining at Le Violon restaurant in Montreal. On Wednesday night, fans then caught him in the crowd singing and dancing at Perry's concert at the Bell Centre as part of her Lifetimes Tour, fueling further romance buzz. Now Orlando, who "made his debut as a single man" at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's A-List nuptials in June, has waded in. The Lord Of The Rings alum commented on an Instagram post by The Onion which featured an AI image of him having dinner with ex German Chancellor Angela Merkel. The caption joked how the pair were spotted "sipping wine and slurping oysters." They also joked how he "couldn't keep his eyes off" the politician. Clearly appreciating the tongue in cheek reference to his baby momma, he posted three hand clap Emoji icons underneath. PERRY WORRYING 10 The couple started dating in 2016 and got engaged three years later Credit: Getty Earlier this year, Roar hitmaker Katy was said to have already told pals their relationship was as good as done - as reports claimed Orlando "won't win her back." Yet pals of the chart star have been quick to express their concern. "Katy's friends want her to have fun after her split from Orlando, but she's still very much grieving the end of their relationship and the fact that she never made it down the aisle," an insider told The U.S. Sun. "They don't want her to rush into something serious, and have heard Justin has a bit of a reputation as a womanizer, and that he loves the fame game. "It is still a very new flirty friendship, but friends are hoping she takes it slow with the next person and chooses a man who loves her for her." A second source added to us: "Justin isn't a guy who is easy to 'catch' and he has been having a lot of women trying to date him since he separated from his wife. "He is someone that has some particular preferences, and he enjoys people who are genuinely nice and that see life in their own way. "Katy has her own 'world' and she is someone who is an extrovert, and she loves to talk about many different topics, and he really loves that."
