Elvis fans will be able to toast the king of rock and roll every morning with the new launch of Elvis-shaped sliced bread.

In celebration of the King's 70th birthday, bakers Kingsmill are selling limited edition loaves cooked into the shape of Elvis's profile.

The famous quiff, nose and jaw will be available until January 8th, adorned with the slogan: "By appointment to the King".

"What better tribute to the great man than to bake him his own limited edition loaf," Allied Bakeries' Jo Sykes told the Daily Mirror.
