“We’re always looking for ways to improve our offering and to make it easier for caterers to serve quality products that their customers will love. These latest products are exactly that and come frozen and pre-portioned so there’s absolutely minimal fuss or wastage. We expect them to be a big hit as afternoon tea settings continue to gain in popularity and due to the strong growth of sweet treats out of home following the resurgence in home baking during lockdown.”
