Rapidly growing and highly regarded Flapjackery has just received four Golds at the Taste of the West Awards, the South West’s prestigious food, drink and hospitality awards.  This is an incredible achievement having just entered these four products.

The four luxurious products, which are all handmade in Devon, given a Gold are:  Lemon Drizzle Flapjack, Peanut Butter Brownie Flapjack – made using Freda’s ‘Gold’ award-winning peanut butter, Traditional Flapjack and Burnt Caramel & Seasalt Flapjack.

Commenting on this outstanding result, co-founder Carol Myott says: “We set up Flapjackery six years ago following lots of comments on how good our flapjacks we were making for friends and family tasted.  We took this feedback and have grown the business at pace from there.  The last couple of years have not been easy, with a huge hit like all in March last year during the first lockdown, but we have kept going and are truly delighted to have received these awards as it is testament to the team’s hard work and determination.”  Fellow co-founder Sally Jenkin adds: “These flapjacks are hugely popular at our new Flapjackery stores in Wells and Minehead as well as our first shop in Tavistock.”

Judged by the most astute palates of chefs, buyers, retailers and food writers, the Taste of the West Awards is a renowned accreditation for artisan producers, cafés and restaurants, providing an opportunity for them to gain recognition for their products and services. The awards celebrate quality, integrity and provenance of food in the region and seek to promote local produce that goes above and beyond in terms of quality and taste. The unmistakable logo is a clear signal for an outstanding product that has met rigorous judging criteria.

Taste of the West is the largest independent regional food group in the UK promoting and supporting fantastic local food and drink from Cornwall, Devon, Dorset, Gloucestershire, Somerset and Wiltshire.  They are owned by over 1,000 members including food and drink producers, restaurants, cafes, pubs, hotels, farm shops and specialist retailers in the South West – all passionate about the provenance and quality of the products they make, serve or sell.
