Irwin’s Bakery is turning its fan-favourite ‘Jammy Joey’ packaging pink this October in support of Asda’s Tickled Pink campaign for Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

 

The limited-edition Jammy Joeys will be among over 200 iconic products featuring specially designed pink packaging and on-pack messaging available at Asda stores to raise awareness about breast cancer.


Additionally, a portion of sales from Tickled Pink products will be donated to breast cancer charities Breast Cancer Now and CoppaFeel!.



This year, Portadown-based Irwin’s Bakery, Northern Ireland’s largest independent bakery, are supporting Asda’s Tickled Pink campaign by giving its popular 10-pack Jammy Joey mini bites a pink makeover.

These products will be available to purchase in all 16 Asda stores across Northern Ireland, helping put breast cancer awareness on everyone’s list.

 

Asda Tickled Pink is one of the UK’s longest-running charity partnerships. Over the past 28 years, the campaign has raised an incredible £92 million since its launch in 1996. Working alongside Breast Cancer Now and CoppaFeel!, Asda aims to raise over £100 million by 2026 to support better treatments, essential education, and life-changing support for breast cancer patients.



Gary Martin, Senior National Account Manager, Irwin’s Bakery said:

 

“With over 100 years of rich history in the Portadown community, we're thrilled to join iconic brands in celebrating 28 years of Asda’s Tickled Pink campaign.

 

“Tickled Pink is an incredible initiative supporting a truly worthwhile cause, and we're honoured to be part of it this year by turning our Jammy Joey packs pink and donating a portion of the sales to Asda’s charity partners Breast Cancer Now and CoppaFeel!”
