Scúp Gelato’s frozen Natural Yogurt wins Ireland’s Great Taste Golden Fork award

Frozen Natural Yogurt from Scúp Gelato has been awarded top accolade for taste in Ireland for 2022, at the Golden Fork ceremony.

Following a record-breaking 14,205 food and drink entries from 110 countries across the world, Great Taste, the world’s largest food and drink accreditation scheme based entirely on taste, has reached its grand finale for 2022.

Announced last night at the Great Taste Golden Forks ceremony held at Southwark Cathedral, the Great Taste Golden Fork trophy for Ireland has been awarded to Scúp Gelato from Kerlogue, for its Natural Yogurt, described as “fresh and light, with a lactic tang and citrus notes”.

The Scúp Gelato Natural Yogurt is made using only the highest quality raw material sourced locally and internationally, starting firstly with Ireland’s amazing milk and cream.

Impressing the Great Taste judges with its “pretty pale lemon colour and enticing crumbled edge”, the Scúp Gelato Natural Yogurt made an impression at every stage of the blind-tasted judging process across the 90 days.

Rising to the top among hundreds of other entries from Ireland, this “fresh and so vibrant” Natural Yogurt was celebrated as the best tasting product in its region at the highly anticipated ceremony – the culmination of Great Taste – the largest and most trusted food and drink accreditation scheme on the planet – dubbed the ‘Oscars’ of the food & drink world and attended by food industry experts and influencers.

John Farrand, managing director at the Guild of Fine Food, said: “Unveiling the Great Taste Golden Fork winners is a huge honour. After months of rigorous blind-tasting and judging, it is fantastic to reveal the award-winning products and celebrate the producers’ hard work and innovation. It’s been an exceptional year for creativity and inspirational food and drink entries. Huge congratulations from all of us at GFF to all the award winners, it really isn’t easy to do what you do – I have the utmost admiration for you all. And thank you to everyone who was involved in Great Taste 2022.”
