It will probably come as no surprise that we have yet more vegan products to launch this month; it really has remained the trend this year and we do not expect to see this slowing as we head into 2020. Golden Bake have two vegan alternatives this month: Vegan Sausage Roll, this 90mm sausage roll is perfect as a light snack with its delicately seasoned flavour really bringing this product to life. Also new to the range is a Vegan Curried Cauliflower and Sweet Potato Jambon. This 35g pastry parcel packs a punch and is ideal for buffets or as part of a meal deal. Be sure to check both these new products out. It wouldn’t be bonfire night without pie and peas. Now I know some of you make your own pies, however, for those of you who don’t have time, Wrights have created a Hand Raised Pork Pie which you will find this month on our offers page. We can now also offer catering packs of Mushy Peas. In a 6x2.6kg pack, that is more than enough peas for winter suppers, or as a lunch offering as the cold weather starts to creep in. Finally, not a new product but a return of an old favourite. Mid-way through October we expect our first shipment of Greek Provincial Currants for the 2019-2020 crop. Hopefully these can be with you before your Christmas baking kicks off. For pricing why not get in touch with your sales rep or one of our customer services team? If you ever want a new product, please feel free to contact myself or your customer service representative to talk about what you need. Dan Watson, Purchasing Manager On Sunday 8th September, one of our Lincolnshire based customers, Marie Myers of the family owned, Myers Quality Bakers, joined thousands of fellow runners to take part in the Great North Run. After a gruelling training schedule, Marie, who is by no means a keen runner, completed the half marathon in 2hours 35 minutes which she ran in aid of Bloodwise, a cause which is close to the Myers’ family heart. Formerly known as Leukaemia and Lymphoma Research, Bloodwise is a charity dedicated to research into blood cancer which also provides information and support for patients and their families. Creating a target of £1000, Marie and her family set about fundraising and the target was successfully smashed with a whopping £4,150 raised. We are delighted to have been able to support Marie’s fundraising and our congratulations go to Marie for her fantastic achievement.
