Gold stars all round at the great taste awards

Posted by Heriots Patisserie Main Account on

We’ve always believed that our products are special. It turns out that the judges at the Great Taste Awards agree. Our passion fruit and mango slice, lemon macaron and salted caramel macaron have all received a coveted Great Taste Award 2022.

Since their debut year in 1993, the Great Taste Awards have become a benchmark for quality and taste in the UK food and drinks industry. So competition is fierce.

Every year thousands of products are put through a rigorous taste-test, conducted by respected chefs, cooks, buyers, retailers, food critics and writers. With brand and packaging hidden, they can only take into account the texture, appearance, quality and (of course) taste of the product.

Glowing commendations from the judges


Winner of a two-star award, our passion fruit and mango slice was deemed to be above and beyond delicious. Less than 10% of products entered achieve this accolade, so we’re incredibly proud of this achievement.

What the judges said:

“An ethereal dessert light as a feather but delivering a serious punch of elegant passion fruit and mango.”  

Both macarons were judged to deliver a fantastic flavour. Only a quarter of the products being judged receive this rating, which is a testament to the deliciousness of these two.

What the judges said:

“The flavour is fruity, zesty and fresh tasting with balanced sweetness. These are great.” “These look decadent and luxurious. Crisp meringue with perfect chewy bite.”
