Bakewell show was a highly successful event for us this year. We
were delighted to welcome Sean Wilson (Martin Platt from Coronation
Street) to our stand. Sean has set up his own cheese manufacturing
company, the Saddleworth Cheese Company, to create handmade
traditional Lancashire cheeses. Initially there are four types of
cheese (though the "blue" is yet to come to market). Sean entered
his cheese in the Bakewell Show competition and succeeded in
carrying off two first prizes and a cup with his Muldoon's Picnic -
a crumbly Lancashire ! Sean's presence generated a lot of interest,
not the least amongst the media, his being featured on ITV's
Calendar and BBC's East Midlands Today.
Sean is shown below with Simon Davidson and with some samples of his
Muldoon's Picnic. Beneath these, there's his prize winning cheese
(classes C6 - Single Crumbly, C11 Any Variety Farmhouse Cheese).
