Sponsored: Ready for your festive celebrations? If not, Marks & Spencer has got you covered with fabulous canapes, showstopping Christmas centrepieces and easy holiday recipes to make every moment special in the run up to the big day.

The quintessentially British brand’s latest festive food range features indulgent Christmas brunch options, a delectable selection of finger foods and cheeseboard favourites. Expect easier-than-ever centrepieces, sides and desserts to ease your culinary stresses away.

Looking for a turkey alternative? 17 succulent cuts of beef and lamb sourced from trusted farms in New Zealand, and chicken from the UK, are available for a limited time period. Customers will also receive a complimentary whole chicken or chicken breast (pack of 4) with any meat and poultry purchased.

For holiday recipe inspiration, Marks & Spencer has teamed up with Michelin starred chef Kirk Westaway to formulate a range of speedy and appetising dishes that promise maximum flavour without any of the Christmas hassles. The brand has also collaborated with the prominent Dubai-based British chefs Nick & Scott for three Christmas recipes. For a healthier option, two recipes are vegan.
