Greggs launches vegan sausage roll at borough branches for Veganuary

A new vegan-friendly sausage roll is to launch at branches of a high street bakery in Gedling borough tomorrow – just in time for Veganuary.

Greggs today confirmed they will launch the new product across all its stores in the borough on January 3.

The vegan-friendly sausage roll will feature pastry made using vegetable oil and contain a “bespoke Quorn filling”.

Roger Whiteside, chief executive at Greggs, said: “Like many food retailers we have seen increasing demand for vegetarian and vegan products. We have been trying to develop a vegan version of our famous sausage roll for some time now.

“It has not been easy but our taste panel customers all love this one, so we have decided to launch it as our contribution to Veganuary.”
