Taylors Snacks has unveiled a range of distinctive seasonal flavours in anticipation of Christmas, featuring four novel products alongside the return of their popular Toasted Marshmallow popcorn.
The yuletide offerings are now available in select garden centres throughout the UK, including Dobbies Garden Centres, and will be stocked in Scottish supermarkets such as Sainsbury’s and Co-op from early November.
The flavours will also be purchasable online across the UK. The festive selection sees the comeback of the best-selling Boxing Day Curry straight cut crisps, as well as the introduction of newcomers: Amaretto & Orange toffee-coated popcorn, Hot Honey Pigs in Blankets, Brie, Bubbly & Orange straight cut crisps, and Spicy Prawn Cocktail ridge cut crisps.
Taylors is also rolling out special edition 500g packs of the Pigs in Blankets flavour in Costco stores nationwide.
Crafted by the Taylors, a fourth-generation farming family, Taylors Snacks’ award-winning crisps are produced in Errol, Perthshire.
The enterprise employs 150 people and is gearing up for further expansion in response to significant retail and customer demand.
The Perthshire-based firm, which has enjoyed tremendous success across Scotland since rebranding from Mackie’s Crisps in 2023, announced its first UK listing with ALDI earlier this year following its official launch in March of last year. The company harbours ambitions for further UK expansion.
James Taylor, managing director of Taylors Snacks said: “Our product development team have been hard at work inventing delicious and surprising flavour combinations for our 2024 ‘Crispmas’, and we couldn’t be more pleased to partner with Dobbies, a Scottish company like ourselves, to bring our new festive flavours to consumers across the UK.
“Last year our seasonal range was a huge success, so we’re bringing back our bestsellers – and some innovative new flavours to tantalise your tastebuds.”
The Taylors Snacks core crisp range of thick cut crisps includes flavours such as Sea Salt, Sea Salt & Vinegar, Mature Cheddar & Onion, Pickled Onion, Flame Grilled Aberdeen Angus, Haggis & Cracked Black Pepper and Chilli Kick.
In addition to crisps, Taylors offers a range of lighter snacks such as Lentil Waves and popcorn. The Lentil Waves flavours are Sea Salt & Vinegar, Barbecue, Sour Cream & Onion and Thai Red Curry, while the popcorn is Sweet & Salted and Lightly Sea Salted. Taylors also produce a range of more indulgent popcorn, offering Toffee-coated and brand-new Salted Caramel flavour.
