Morrisons is selling Easter rabbits made out of butter.

Butter bunnies for Easter

Butter bunnies for Easter

The UK store has the unusual product - a salted butter bunny - for sale on its shelves, and a food blogger was left baffled by the quirky treat costing just £1.

Claire Jessiman - who spotted it in her local Morrisons in Aberdeen, Scotland - told the Mirror Online: ''I actually did a double take!

''I was very tempted to buy one but didn't succumb... I'm a total sucker for a themed food item.

''Give me a toasted bunny crumpet with bunny butter and a cheese egg any day of the week.''

The product is actually made by Dutch dairy company Buisman, who rank it as one of their most popular luxury seasonal releases.

The firm's website says: ''In the Netherlands, our butter figurines are probably our best-known luxury products. Around Christmas and Easter, these figurines form centerpieces on the dining table.''
