M&S shoppers obsess over must have edible flowers perfect for cocktails

It's always nice to relax, unwind and put your feet up on the sofa after a long day - or week - of work.

But what's even better is having your favourite drink or snack as you relax for the evening.

Cocktails are a popular choice for many and nowadays stores have a variety of 'ready made' cocktails to choose from.

And if you want to spruce up your alcoholic beverage, flowers may be the perfect thing according to some M&S shoppers.

Taking to the Food Finds group, shoppers obsessed over the product.

However other shoppers also took to the Facebook page, Newfoodsuk and people were divided over the product with some loving it and others finding it a waste of time.

The M&S flowers are a huge hit with shoppers - but some are not convinced. (M&S.)

One said: "You can't taste them and they do look absolutely beautiful on these Blondies" and attached a gorgeous picture of her bakes.

Another joked: "Give it a couple of weeks and you will be able to get them in Aldi."

A third added: "Perfect for cocktails!"

However some were not convinced with many stating they were a "waste of money."

One said: "It takes zero effort to sow these, unlike vegetables, which do take effort and time. sow them, and omit paying the middleman and producing more plastic waste."

A second then explained that although they are used for decoration on food in restaurants, they are "pointless" as people "always leave them" adding "they would be better left on the plant as flowers."

What do you think about their edible flowers and have you ever used them?
