Black Puddings first arrived in the UK via European monks, who named the product "bloodwurst".

They first visited Yorkshire before making the trip over the pennines to Lancashire where this wonderful product became known as "Black Pudding".

Ever since then, black puddings have been promoted as good, tasty, wholesome food. The profile and popularity of black puddings has gone from strength to strength, and can be seen on the menu of many top class restaurants all over the country.

Our production team, Jack & Richard Morris, have won gold medals with our traditional recipe which dates back over 100 years. After successful entries into black pudding events in France, Jack Morris & colleagues started the first UK Black Pudding competitions back in 1970.
