savoury pastry products
Few things are more British than a pork pie. At Samworth Brothers, these meat-filled marvels lie at the heart of our range of savoury pastry products. Our Walker & Son business can trace its first pie back more than 200 years, and our Melton Mowbray Pork Pies have protected designation of origin status from the European Union. Dickinson & Morris pies are created in Melton Mowbray and also sold on the town’s main thoroughfare, at Ye Olde Pork Pie Shoppe, the very spot where Mary Dickinson created the Melton Mowbray Pork Pie as we know it today.
much-loved savoury pastries
Around 250 miles away, in the town of Callington in Cornwall, our team lovingly crafts another savoury pastry that has EU protection: the Cornish pasty. At The Cornwall Bakery, the home of Ginsters, we combine locally sourced potato, onion and swede with 100% British beef and a signature peppery gravy, encased in a golden puff pastry.
In addition to Cornish pasties and pork pies, our savoury pastry range includes slices, sausage rolls, hot pies, quiches and party food, as well as vegan and gluten free options. More than 2,000 colleagues at our sites in Leicestershire and Cornwall contribute to creating these much-loved savoury pastries, at facilities with the latest technology and with a spirit of continuous innovation, while also providing the handcrafted and artisan approach required for premium products.
