TASTY treats at a Ross bakery have won plaudits after wowing pie-loving judges in a national competition.
Deas of Dingwall saw two of its culinary favourites honoured in the 21st annual World Championship Scotch Pie Awards.
Their Macaroni pies were given a silver award in the Macaroni Pie category, while their haggis pies picked up a bronze in the Haggis Savoury section.
Their feats were made all the more impressive by the fact that more than 75 professional pie makers had entered around 460 of their tastiest products into the competition’s 11 categories.
William Deas said: “We are delighted with our win and can go away with our heads held very high indeed. To have been judged as one of the best against so many of our peers is a huge achievement.”
Alasdair Smith, chief executive of Scottish Bakers, said: “At Scottish Bakers, our core purpose is to promote and protect the interests of the trade and this competition makes our task simple. I am incredibly proud to be a part of this competition recognising excellence and celebrating success.”
