The ads contain the strapline “Ambrosia Feel Good Puds”.

The launch of Ambrosia Puds is part of £20m investment over three years in the ambient desert category by Premier Foods, which also owns Hartley’s, Bird’s and Angel Delight, as it aims to grow the category by £35m.

The company says the ambient desserts category is worth £296m and is growing by 9% year-on-year.
