👩‍🍳🎂125th Birthday Celebrations🎂👩‍🍳

As part of our birthday celebrations, we ran a competition for 2 of our local schools; Marlpool Juniors and Mundy C of E Juniors. The children were asked to design a pudding incorporating their favourite ingredients.

The 2 winners and 4 runner-ups were invited to visit us in our NPD (New Product Development) kitchen to mix, bake, decorate, and taste their amazing creations with our NPD team.

During the visit, the children and teachers were given a special factory tour enabling them to see how our famous Christmas puddings are prepped, filled, steamed, and packaged.

The 2 winners received a special 125th goodie bag, whilst the 4 runners-up each received a pudding to take home!

We appreciate all the children's positive attitude and enthusiasm throughout their visit with us. 😀

Keep an eye on our page for upcoming events in the run-up to the big day
