On average food and drink prices in the two years to June went up by 25.8 per cent. But consumer watchdog Which? found some individual products have soared much further.
A packet of six Mr Kipling Bakewell Cake Slices at Sainsbury's, went from £1 to £2.75 on average a huge rise of 175 per cent.
At Morrisons, mozzarella went from 49p to £1.19, increasing by 143 per cent.
Sue Davies, Which? head of food policy, said: "Our research exposes the shocking true scale of food price inflation at supermarkets since the cost-of-living crisis began.
"And shows why recent headline-grabbing price cuts of a few pence on some products are encouraging, but won't be enough to help simply people struggling to put food on the table."
