The front of the wrapper features the centenary logo, four stylised candles with '1869 1969' below them and the inscription, 'SAINSBURY'S 100 Good food years'. The reverse of the wrapper features two inscriptions, 'Sainsbury's say Thank you for their first 100 years' and 'We have baked this cake specially for the occasion ... have a slice and join in the celebration'. On 15 April one million slices of cake were given away free to customers who came into Sainsbury's branches.
