They will be available at over 800 Tesco stores across the country.
Greggs' 'Bake at Home' frozen range includes a number of fan favourite food items.
While the range is already available at Iceland, it is now set to go country-wide with Tesco.
The frozen goodies originally launched in 2011, when the iconic sausage rolls were sold in frozen form in 10 stores across Liverpool.
In the years since, the Iceland range has extended to 15 beloved products.
It includes the Greggs Sausage Rolls, Cheese & Onion Bakes, Sausage, Bean & Cheese Melts, Steak Bakes, Chicken Bakes, and Bacon & Cheese Wraps, as well as Vegetable Bakes and Vegan Sausage Rolls.
While Tesco haven't yet announced which products will be in their line-up, it's the perfect excuse to try out the convenient at-home baked goods.
Earlier this week, the popular bakery chain launched another new offer to appeal to more customers.
For the first time ever, it is offering customers a three-part breakfast deal.
However, customers will need to be quick as it's only available for a limited time.
I tried the 'secret' Greggs menu items only available in Scotland
Previously, customers could only get a sandwich and a drink as part of the breakfast deal, but now it has been expanded.
You can now grab an extra item, helping you "seriously upgrade" your meal according to Greggs.
It includes a fresh fruit pot, creamy yoghurt or golden hash brown to their roll deal for £3.95, or their baguette deal for £5.10.
Customers can choose between a melon and grape, or a strawberry and apple fruit pot.
The offer is available at select Greggs stores from July 25.
Greggs in numbers
Did you know Greggs sausage rolls have 96 layers of pastry?
The first Greggs opened in 1951 on Gosforth High Street.
There are also 2,473 shops around the country — a thousand more than McDonald's.
Greggs is now valued at £2.6billion thanks to its budget deals.
Nearly £2 in every £100 spent in UK hospitality is done in a Greggs.
Newcastle still remains the sausage roll capital of the UK, with Geordies scoffing 17.9 million of them a year.
Alongside the new offer, Greggs are launching a delicious summer menu, complete with a variety of new sandwiches, including a Chipotle Chicken Flatbread.
It comes as Greggs saw a 14.3% decline in pre-tax profit to £63.5m in the first half of this year.
This was despite a 7 per cent rise in total sales to £1.03 billion.
It said it had suffered from lower footfall, cost headwinds and "more weather disruption than 2024" according to Grocery Gazette.
But Greggs CEO Roisin Currie said she was "very confident" in the brand's expansion plans.
They currently boast 2,649 shops across the country, with the goal of opening 140 to 150 net new shops this. year.

Halifax to make huge change to bank account used by thousands and it'll reward them with free cash
You'll have to meet one rule to qualify TAKING INTEREST Halifax to make huge change to bank account used by thousands and it'll reward them with free cash Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) HALIFAX is making a huge change to a popular bank account used by thousands of customers. The retail bank is introducing credit interest on Reward Current Account balances from October 1. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 The Reward Current Account comes with a £3 monthly fee, which is waived if you deposit at least £1,500 each month Credit: Getty This update means account holders can now earn cash rewards simply by maintaining a balance in their account. Halifax will pay interest on balances between £1 and £5,000, with two tiers of rates available. You'll earn 1% AER on balances between £1 and £3,999.99, while balances between £4,000 and £5,000 will attract a higher rate of 3% AER. For example, if you kept £2,000 in the account at all times, you would earn £30 in interest per year at the 1.5% AER. Meanwhile, if you kept £4,500 in the account, you would earn £60 on the first £4,000, with 1.5% AER applied. The remaining £500 would earn 3% AER, giving £15 in interest. In total, you would earn £75 per year. However, you won't earn any interest on balances above £5,000. The Reward Current Account carries a £3 monthly fee, which is waived if you deposit at least £1,500 each month. To qualify for credit interest payments from October, you'll also need to set up and pay out two separate direct debits each month in order to access the benefits. The Reward Current Account offers additional benefits, including fee-free spending abroad. Customers can also earn up to 15% cashback at selected retailers through Halifax's Cashback Extras programme. Switch bank accounts for free perks Halifax isn't the only bank offering credit interest on account deposits. Nationwide's FlexDirect account offers 5% APR on balances up to £1,500, while Santander's Edge Up account pays 2.5% on balances up to £25,000. The average bank customer has around £10,000 in savings, according to Raisin. With this in mind the average customer could still actually earn more interest by shopping around elsewhere. If your savings account pays less than the current inflation rate of 3.6%, it's time to look for a better deal. Plus, the Bank of England is expected to cut its base rate from 4.25% to 4% next week, which could make savings rates even lower. The base rate affects how much banks pay savers - when it drops, interest on savings usually goes down too. How this affects your savings depends on the type of account you have. Fixed-rate accounts won't change, but easy-access accounts can see their rates drop at any time. What types of savings accounts are available? THERE are four types of savings accounts: fixed, notice, easy access, and regular savers. Separately, there are ISAs or individual savings accounts which allow individuals to save up to £20,000 a year tax-free. But we've rounded up the main types of conventional savings accounts below. FIXED-RATE A fixed-rate savings account or fixed-rate bond offers some of the highest interest rates but comes at the cost of being unable to withdraw your cash within the agreed term. This means that your money is locked in, so even if interest rates increase you are unable to move your money and switch to a better account. Some providers give the option to withdraw, but it comes with a hefty fee. NOTICE Notice accounts offer slightly lower rates in exchange for more flexibility when accessing your cash. These accounts don't lock your cash away for as long as a typical fixed bond account. You'll need to give advance notice to your bank - up to 180 days in some cases - before you can make a withdrawal or you'll lose the interest. EASY-ACCESS An easy-access account does what it says on the tin and usually allows unlimited cash withdrawals. These accounts tend to offer lower returns, but they are a good option if you want the freedom to move your money without being charged a penalty fee. REGULAR SAVER These accounts pay some of the best returns as long as you pay in a set amount each month. You'll usually need to hold a current account with providers to access the best rates. However, if you have a lot of money to save, these accounts often come with monthly deposit limits. To help you get the best returns, we've listed the top savings rates for each account type below. What's on offer? If you're looking for a savings account without withdrawal limitations, then you'll want to opt for an easy-access saver. These do what they say on the tin and usually allow for unlimited cash withdrawals. The best easy access savings account available is from Cahoot, which pays 5% - and you only need to pay a minimum of £1 to set it up. This means that if you were to save £1,000 in this account, you would earn £50 a year in interest. Meanwhile, Oxbury Bank's easy access account offers customers 4.61% back on savings worth £1 or more. If you're okay with being less flexible about withdrawals, a top notice account could be a great option. These accounts offer better rates than easy-access accounts but still let you access your money more flexibly than a a fixed-bond. RCI Bank UK's 95 day notice account offers savers 4.7% back with a minimum £1,000 deposit, for example. This means that if you were to save £1,000 in this account, you would earn £47 a year in interest. Meanwhile, Oxbury Bank's 120-day notice account offers 4.65%, requiring a minimum deposit of £1,000. If you want to lock your money away and keep the same savings rate for a set time, a fixed bond is a good choice. The best fixed rate currently offered is Castle Community Bank's one-year fixed bond, which pays 4.52%, requiring a minimum deposit of £1,000. Meanwhile, GB Bank's one-year fixed bond offers 4.5% back on a deposit of £1 or more. This means that if you were to save £1,000 in this account, you would earn £45 a year in interest. If you want to build a habit of saving a set amount of money each month, a regular savings account could pay you dividends. Principality Building Society's Six Month Regular Saver offers 7.5% interest on savings. It allows customers to save between £1 and £200 a month. Save in the maximum, and you'll earn 25.81 in interest. While regular savings accounts look attractive due to the high interest rates on offer, they are not right for all savers. You can't use a regular savings account to earn interest on a lump sum. The amount you can save into the account each month will be limited, typically to somewhere between £200 and £500. Therefore, if you have more to save, it would be wise to consider one of the other accounts mentioned above.

Donald Trump vows to unleash ‘every tool in our arsenal' in price row with British drug firms
Around £16 billion was wiped off shares in the sector across Europe after the President's comments TRUMP THREAT Donald Trump vows to unleash 'every tool in our arsenal' in price row with British drug firms Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) DONALD Trump insists he will unleash 'every tool in our arsenal' if British drug companies don't cut their prices within 60 days. The US President waged war with a total of seventeen firms demanding 'binding commitments' to match the lower prices offered to developing countries. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up The move comes as the White House hit dozens of countries with a fresh slew of tariffs including punishing levies on neighbour Canada. Two UK drug firms, AstraZeneca and GSK, caught up in the pharma row saw their share price drop as Trump aims to lower prices for American citizens. The move could even have damaging consequences for the NHS whose leverage with suppliers due to its size could be reduced. Mr Trump has demanded the firms apply their 'most favoured nation' rates to Medicaid which is the health system for low-income Americans. READ MORE ON DONALD TRUMP GOT TRUMPED Moment Trump 'throws shade' at Meghan and Harry during Starmer press conference He said: 'Make no mistake: a collaborative effort towards achieving global pricing parity would be the most effective path for companies, the government, and American patients. In a letter to the firms, he said: 'But if you refuse to step up we will deploy every tool in our arsenal to protect American families from continued abusive drug pricing practices. 'Americans are demanding lower drug prices, and they need them today.' Around £16 billion was wiped off shares in the sector across Europe as fears grow higher prices in the rest of the world will fund the US reductions. The move comes after Trump said back in May that he wanted drug prices in the US to be reduced by 80 per cent. Moment Trump 'throws shade' at Meghan and Harry during Starmer press conference But experts appeared wary that he has the authority to reduce prices and a previous effort in his first term failed in court. At the time, he said the tactics were 'subsidising socialism' abroad in paying for the same pills from the same factories, which led to spiralling prices at home. The warning came as Mr Trump signed an executive order applying a wave of tariffs to 68 countries and the European Union. Canada was hit with levies – up to 35 per cent from 25 per cent - due to its lack of co-operation in stopping flow of illegal drugs and fentanyl into America. Their PM Mark Carney said that his country was 'making historic investments in border security to arrest drag traffickers and end migrant smuggling'. Switzerland will also keep negotiating with the US after their tariff rate hit 39 per cent, which was far higher than they anticipated.
