Popular British sausage roll gets figure at Madame Tussauds London  Greggs sausage roll, a much loved British snack, has been immortalized with its own figure at the wax museum of Madame Tussauds in London. The tourist attraction, known for its wax figures of celebrities, royals and others, said on May 29, 2025 the replica of the flaky savory pastry with meat was the first time a food item had been given the treatment usually reserved for the famous. It will go on display in the museum’s Culture Capital Zone besides figures of naturalist David Attenborough, playwright William Shakespeare and rapper Stormzy on June 5 - National Sausage Roll Day.

00:27First when I heard about this project I said this must be fun and actually we decided to

00:45use traditional techniques what Madame Tussauds would use 200 years ago.

00:51We approached the project exactly how we would approach if it would sculpt or create

00:56a human figure.

00:58So the first step was we had a sitting, we were quite lucky because actually we had the

01:03model available at Madame Tussauds London for the sitting.

01:07So we took measurements, we took reference pictures and then we started to sculpt it into

01:13clay.

01:26So I want to take a little space.

01:40Action.

01:45So I'll create this base colour, I will then add in several layers different colours,

02:04so that would be oranges, yellows, greens, reds.

02:18So we build up these layers which gives the sausage roll the Greggs iconic golden glaze.

02:34We put it on display on the 5th of June, which is National Sausage Roll Day, and I hope we

02:43can surprise some people, the visitors, imagine they walk into Madame Tussauds London and middle

02:49of the attraction they will see the first Greggs wax sausage roll figure.

03:04So, we'll see you next time.
