Artisan Elegant & English Chocolate & Raspberry 150g
Product Information:
This company, based in Derbyshire, produces seven different thin and crispy wafers. When it was evident that the next generation of ?the firm that made specialised biscuits for her Fine Cheese Company was uninterested in the business, Ann-Marie Dyas bought Ashbourne Biscuits, despite The Fine Cheese Company being based in Bath and the firm being in that biscuit Mecca, Ash-bourne in Derbyshire. Renamed Artisan Biscuits 'because we emphasise the handmade aspect', the firm's 90 employees are turning out a stream of new products, all, stresses the new owner, made to her principles: handmade, best possible ingredients, interesting ideas. 'It's like a giant kitchen: enormous Magimixes knead the dough, a huge roller pushes the mixture into super-sized biscuit cutters, and the trays are put into the oven by hand. The com- pany had been 70 years in the same family and it has now passed to another family. Everything we do is about quality, in the same way that we deal with the cheese. It's not just about profits.'
