British sweet manufacturer Swizzels has created a limited-edition Minions-themed range of confectionery to coincide with the UK release of Illumination’s Minions: The Rise of Gru, which launches in UK cinemas today.
The products are certain to prove popular with consumers and retailers can maximise sales with eye-catching, seasonal displays that shine a spotlight on the eagerly anticipated film.
The range includes:
