Speaking to the Chronicle The X Factor judge said: “It’s actually been really fun, just chatting to people going into Greggs to get their breakfast before doing their long day’s work, it’s been lovely, and just to be home. I was handing out chocolates to people who were trying to tell us they were on a diet and five seconds later they were eating my chocolate bar. They are really enjoying it which is great. Initially I wanted to approach Greggs for a few reasons. I was born in the North East, that’s all we ate a lot of the time, pasties. Initially I wanted to do something sweet, more like a doughnut or muffin, but after going backwards and forwards we settled on this Belgian Chocolate Crunch because everyone loves a bit of chocolate and Belgian chocolate is delicious, I love Rocky Road and it’s my take on a Rocky Road. I went to one guy and asked if he would like to try one and he told me he had already had two, which I was really pleased about.”

The Cheryl’s Trust is a charity set up in partnership with Princes Trust, to help young, vulnerable and unemployed young people living in the North East.
Cheryl is aiming to raise £2 million, to open a youth centre in the city of Newcastle and speaking about her fundraising efforts, the pretty star added: “I’ve still got a lot of work to do to be honest with you, It’s not an easy task I’ve set myself but I never do seem to give myself an easy time. It’s a good challenge, I’m really motivated, a lot more than I have been for a long time about anything. If I get this right I am on track to do some really amazing things.”
