Mud Foods has won 129 awards at the last count, mostly at the British Pie Awards and Great Taste Awards, and has a national loyal fan base of Mud pie lovers!
Currently distributing throughout the whole of the South East and London but also throughout most of mainland UK via our distributions partners.

Award-Winning Excellence

Pastry
At Mud Foods take great pride in crafting the most delicious pies, and it all starts with their handmade buttery shortcrust pastry which is enriched with local free-range eggs. They also make gluten-free pastry to the same high standards, so coeliacs, or those just looking to cut down on gluten, can also enjoy their scrumptious pies.
