I Love You Champagne Marmite Valentine

By: Seamus Waldron Published: 13 January 2008

I love you Marmite. Valentines MarmiteNormally, just before valentines, you can pick up net bags of heart shaped Marmite portions. This year, things are different. How about this - Marmite with Champagne. Not only that, Selfridges are exclusively selling advance jars and 50 of them can be picked up with a silver engraved lid at a mere £145! True, true love for the one you love.

Last year year we had an interesting combination of Marmite with Guinness and I am still loving that combination, but Marmite and Champagne? I just don't know. I will reserve my judgement until I actually try it :-) Luckily for me, my girlfriend likes Marmite, so you can guess what will be on her toast the morning of valentines!

Gold labels on the special jars are heart-shaped and say 'I love you' and 'For my lovely Marmite lover'.

There will be a limited run of 600,000 jars of 250g pots, which are 0.3 per cent champagne. On sale in supermarkets on January 21 at £2.99 each. As mentioned before,
before then they will be sold at Selfridges for £3.99 - along with 50 special pots with engraved silver lids at £145 each.


I love you Marmite. Valentines Marmite

Update, May 2026: Those 'I Love You' Champagne Marmite jars had a second life. A sculptor used 420 of them to coat a 7ft replica of Rodin's The Kiss. See Someone made Rodin's The Kiss out of 420 jars of Marmite.
