Our artists have put in numerous hours to capture every detail of this popular menu item, the pressure was on to capture it perfectly because we know how passionate Brits are about their favourite pastry! <BR><br \/>\n&#8220;We took the process very seriously, making this creation the exact same way we make all our figures at the attraction. We&#8217;re delighted to honour its iconic status with a history-making feat &#8211; the first time an individual food item has had the honour of having their own figure at Madame Tussauds London. We can\u2019t wait for guests to be stopped in the tracks at the life-like sausage roll &#8211; just in time for National Sausage Roll Day.&#8221;<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/bangbizarre.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"> Visit Bang Bizarre (main website) <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><script src=\"https:\/\/geo.dailymotion.com\/player\/xtbac.js\" data-video=\"\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2025-05-29 14:17:58 The famous Greggs Sausage Roll is set to be unveiled at Madame Tussauds London.
