"On Wednesday we got to try the phenomenal pie entries, and AE Chambers, Bowring Butchers and The Cod’s Scallops triumphed over incredibly tough competition in the respective categories. These awards celebrate the skill and ingenuity of British pie makers across the UK, and I’d like to congratulate them as a worthy winner.”
