About Us
Fat Lass Preserves
Fat Lass Preserves holds a 5 Star Hygiene Rating & all products are homemade in
Newcastle-upon-Tyne. England.
All preserves are cooked in small batches, using only the best seasonal produce & British vinegars to retain & enhance natural flavors.
Our preserves are lightly cooked, meaning they taste fresher, juicier & crunchier than traditional preserves.
Here, at Fat Lass Preserves we aim to preserve & promote historic methods & benefits of preserving by adding a modern twist on flavors and creating inventive ways to use our preserves... Like our unique COCKTAIL MARMALADES which can be used for toast, or cocktails. And then, there's our VEGETABLE JAMS, a top hit with kids.
Our Mission
Fat Lass Preserves works hard to maintain a strong ethical policy & practice. That is, all waste is fully recycled, all food scraps are composted and where possible we always aim to buy local or British produce. Even our recyclable glass jars are made in England.
Also, we only use a community car hire scheme to make deliveries to our lovely stockists.
My Story
Hello, it's Bridget here... Owner and Head Fat Lass at Fat Lass Preserves. Guess this is where I tell you a little about me... Well, I'm an ex-Bafta winning documentary director, television soap writer and once worked as a human billboard. I have an allotment, I'm dyslexic, I love Siouxsie & the Banshees & I can't pronounce the word 'paprika' - Which is a tad embarrassing, since I have a Smoked Paprika Onion chutney product!
And, just in case you were wondering, as Head Fat Lass, yes I am a big, curvy lady. I named my company Fat Lass Preserves because the word "fat" is often used as a negative, destructive term, but I believe it's time to reclaim this negative and turn it into a positive.
Fat Lass Preserves is all about producing quality food, using top notch ingredients. It's food with all the tasty bits left in. Food created to be enjoyed without guilt.
Like me, many Super Women (and men) come in all shapes and sizes; something I am no longer embarrassed about, and much happier & healthier for it.
MAY THE POWER OF
FAT LASS BE WITH YOU!!
