Delicious golden boost for bakery

Sales of the 100,000 gluten-free mince pies being produced by Cork company Delicious this Christmas, have been boosted by a gold medal in the annual UK Great Taste Awards.

It’s been a good year for Delicious which launched a new range of gateaux, signed a deal with Tesco in both Ireland and the UK, and picked up two UK Great Taste awards for Christmas products in September.

Founder and director Denise O’Callaghan is expecting growth of in excess of 40% this year.
