WE WON AGAIN, AND AGAIN, AND AGAIN...
The Great Taste Awards from the Guild of Fine Food are the acknowledged benchmark for speciality food and drink. A three-star gold is the highest level of award any producer can aspire to and is recognised as the definitive independent accreditation of quality.
This year The Fresh Pasta Company has been recognized with two three-star awards and four two-star awards for the following products:
3-STAR GREAT TASTE AWARD 2009
- Handmade Venison Tortelloni
- Il Pesto Genovese di Prá
2-STAR GREAT TASTE AWARD 2009
- Butternut Squash and Sage Tortelli
- Pecorino & Asparagus Tortelli
- Handmade Wild Mushroom Tortelloni
- Potato Gnocchi
The Great Taste awards judging standards have long been the most rigorous in the UK. For 2009, they became even more so. Every entry was blind tasted by two teams of experts working separately but simultaneously. A jury comprising leading chefs, food writers and buyers such as Charles Campion, Shaun Hill, Mark Hix, Thomasina Miers, and Antony Worrall Thompson, blind tasted every entry the first two panels believed worthy of gold and confirmed the star rating each deserves.
All entries awarded the coveted 3 star gold (there were just 83 out of over 4700 entries and The Fresh pasta Company was awarded two of the 83) will be judged again on September 7th at Fortnum & Mason Awards Ceremony, to identify the regional and national winners.
All he Fresh Pasta Company award-winning products will be displayed and available for tasting at the Speciality and Fine Food Fair at Olympia in London on September 6-8th (stand 825).
