MARKS & Spencer has come under fire as dozens of shocked customers have mistaken its Mothers’ Day chocolate box for something ruder.

Shoppers have taken to Twitter to highlight the gaffe after the family department store shared an image in a social media marketing campaign with the caption: “The most delicious foodie gifts for the loveliest Mum.”

One user commented: “Chocolate covered Tulips from M&S for Mother’s Day, tulips, really, looks like something Ann Summers would produce!!”

Another said: “I’m not sure I’d want to give these @marksandspencer chocolate tulips to my mum for #MothersDay My Eyes.”

When contacted by the Sun on Sunday for a comment Marks & Spencer failed to respond.
