Stag Bakeries extends listing at Marks & Spencer
Stag Bakeries has announced that their listing with Marks & Spencer has been extended. Stag Bakeries’ Smoked Dunlop Cheese Straws is now available within the branded artisan food range at 200 Marks & Spencer stores.
The cheese straws were developed to showcase Stag’s Scottish heritage and made with a carefully selected Scottish artisan cheese, Smoked Dunlop, which is an organic, unpasteurised cheese traditionally smoked over whisky barrel shavings. This gives a delicate smoky taste which carries through to the taste in the cheese straw.
The gourmet straws are hand-baked at Stag’s bakery on the Isle of Lewis in the Scottish Outer Hebrides. Rich, indulgent cheese straws that are light, flaky and delicious.
Charlie Macdonald, owner of Stag Bakeries said “We are obviously really pleased that Marks & Spencer has extended their listing to include the Smoked Dunlop Cheese Straw. We have been supplying them with our Stornoway Seaweed Water Biscuits and Seaweed Oatcake since April and sales out of the store have been at an exceptional rate. Marks & Spencer is synonymous with British quality, so we are very pleased that our brand will continue to be featured in store. This range extension will help showcase the breadth of our product range. We have exciting new products launching in 2016 which will continue to showcase our Scottish island heritage.”
The Smoked Dunlop Cheese Straws are packed into distinctive packaging, and will retail at £3.50 for a 100g pack.
As well as being a biscuit producer, Stag is a traditional island bakery that also supplies over 200 products to the local market.
