Artisan confectioner Buttermilk and Cornish spirits producer Southwestern Distillery have collaborated to produce a new fudge flavour.
Buttermilk worked closely with Southwestern Distillery founder Tarquin Leadbetter to create new limited-edition gin and pastis-flavoured fudge products. The limited edition treat packs of gin, pastis and vanilla fudge are now available to consumers, Buttermilk said. The fudges have distinct flavours with juniper and orangey coriander notes from the gin, and a sweet aniseed flavour from the pastis.
Buttermilk managing director Tracy McGoad said: “We have long been big fans and customers of Tarquin’s, and are really impressed by his artisanal skills and passion. Like us, he uses traditional techniques and quality ingredients to create products in small batches.
“It has been great to collaborate with another Cornish producer to create something fun and a little different.”
Tarquin Leadbetter said: “I’ve been buying Buttermilk fudge since I was a child, popping into the Padstow shop during school holidays, so it was a fantastic idea to collaborate with these brilliant confectioners that are only a few miles down the road from the distillery, and produce something really special.
“Tracy and David were really enthusiastic to be involved and we couldn’t be happier with all their hard work. The results are excellent. The proof is in the pudding!”
Buttermilk’s limited edition treat packs of gin, pastis and vanilla fudge are priced at £1.99 each and available to purchase online from Buttermilk.
