The most recent item from Ed Sheeran is not an album, but rather his own line of spicy sauce. It is known as “Tingly Ted’s” and is available in two varieties: “Tingly” and “Xtra Tingly.”
Sheeran stated, “I wanted to create a sauce that took the same pride of place as ketchup.

Breakfast with spicy sauce? To us, that sounds like a bad habit. Yet it’s only the most recent illustration of a musician’s brand extension.
