SEASONAL SHOWSTOPPERS

Heston’s hidden orange Christmas pudding was a smash hit for Waitrose ten years ago – and show-stopping creations are a key element in many supermarket festive bakery ranges.

This feature will focus on such products – the stand-out sweet or savoury baked goods that command a premium price and will be the centrepiece of a Christmas spread.

It will look at the history and development of such products (Was Heston’s the first to really make a splash?) Bringing the article into the present day, it will examine the trends being tapped and the inspiration behind the retailers’ Christmas 2019 launches.
