We just wanted to tell you about the Artisan Food Trail – because they are such a great supporter of small businesses! We need all the help we can get in the fight against the march of the multiples and having them on our side gives us a warm and fuzzy feeling.

The clever peeps do lots of tweeting and tell people about producers that they like, and they retweet our stuff, and they put it all in a newsletter.  They are really good at all of that.  They also have a website http://www.artisanfoodtrail.co.uk/ and a blog – http://theartisanfoodtrail.blogspot.co.uk/  and use them to try to connect people who like to eat with people who like to make yummy food…to eat…

They are also pretty clever with photo editing – check this out (we didn’t even know they had done it!)

Isn’t it fab!

So thanks Artisan Food Trail, for caring!

We had such great responses to our new tubs last year that we decided to bring up the rest of the packaging to match; same colours but the little ones have the colours sort of inverted – have a look at the picture below to see what I mean;

Our new 125ml pots alongside our 'sharing tubs' (sharing not compulsory!)

They are also a little bit bigger.  125ml now as opposed to the 100ml of the older pots.  People always told us that they were too small, so we listened and made them bigger.  Sometimes even that isn’t enough; last week yet another customer admitted to eating a whole 500ml tub. By herself.  She wanted to know the calorific content so we have sent a sample off to be analysed but we did some sums of our own and we think that our strawberry flavour is about 33% fewer calories than a big competitor’s strawberry shortcake,  Not bad, eh?  Ours is made with real fruit too, lots of fruit. So better for you too (do I have to write an official disclaimer here?! – um, all natural, no additives,no preservatives, lots and lots of fruit….)
