Aldi has defiantly announced it is bringing back its Cuthbert the Caterpillar cake after learning it is the subject of copyright infringement legal challenge by Marks & Spencer.

Posting its latest response to the row on Twitter, the German discounter announced a limited edition of the cake will return to shelves next month with all profits to be donated to cancer charities.
