Doe Bakehouse in Harrogate has created a new Valentine's-themed product called a Vulva-Nut.

The vulva-shaped sweet treat, which comes with 'pube sprinkles', has captured the imagination on social media, with Harrogate TV presenter Steph McGovern among those posting about it.

Doe Bakehouse, which now has four stores, is run by young entrepreneur Evie Jackson, who is known for her creative and brightly coloured products.

But the latest one, which comes with a meat-free option, has taken things to another level, with comments on the company's Facebook page including 'I need to send one to each of my ex’s, they could do with an anatomy lesson', 'I’m guessing the male version wouldn’t sell too well' and 'Will these be available in your Clit-heroe store?'.

The strawberry glazed treat comes with a hidden chocolate egg.

Despite a few comments asking "why is there a need?" the overall response on social media has been overwhelmingly positive, with some using the hashtag feministfood.
