We had a great evening at Kew Bridge Steam Museum in London for the Free From Food Awards ceremony, where Pure Mesquite pod flour was shortlisted for an award in the Ingredients category.

The Awards are organised by Michelle and Cressida from Foods Matter, which is a great online resource for people with food allergies providing an exceptional service and advice on all allergy related matters.

The evening was well attended by representatives from the free from food industry and members of the press who enjoyed delicious canapes and freely flowing prosecco and excellent gluten free beer. The event was set amongst the dramatic surroundings of the Steam Museum with gigantic engines hissing and turning throughout as the awards were presented by celebrity chef Antony Worrall Thompson.

Special mentions must go to the winners of this year’s awards, including Go Free Cakes, Pour Toi chocolatiers, The Black Farmer, Hale & Hearty, and the highly deserving overall winners Dove’s Farm. 

It was great for us at The Mesquite Company to meet do many wonderful dedicated people who really care about what they do. Thanks to Ruth Holroyd from What Allergy? for including us on her highly regarded blog!

We are very much looking foward to next year’s entry where we hope to bring home a win!
