Groupe Boncolac – which specialises in frozen desserts – has taken over Bodmin based Proper Cornish pasties, but insists there will be no change to the food.
Proper Cornish said the acquisition by Groupe Boncolac would open up export markets in Europe. The Cornish Pasty Association added: “Their pasties will still be made at the same place, by the same team and with the same recipe.”
Cornish pasties must be made in Cornwall under geographic origin laws – and 120 million are produced each year, making up £300million of trade for Cornwall’s economy, reports The Mirror.
