A number of hours, thinking and lack of sleep, our product development team endured while developing our Mince & Cheese recipe. The hard work & innovation will never stop there and these stressful times do not scare the Dad's Pies team, it only pushes us further.
The Mince & Cheese Pie is such a staple flavour in NZ and such a very competitive flavour, as there are so many versions and so many preferences. It isn't easy catering for a panel of judges that have all different preferences and taste. However, we managed to do it.
The suspense of awaiting the results was very nerve-racking for our team, as we take pride in every aspect of our products. As the team sat at their tables awaiting the results, as the Dad's Pies name echoed across the room, as the first prize winners, a sense of relief and accomplishment was felt. We are so proud and will continue to be proud of this moment but the awards and accomplishment will not stop there.
Even though we now have the 2017 gold award, does not mean we stop all improvement, we will continue to develop every product with the same love and passion we have for our Mince & Cheese to make everything better for our consumers and make it the most delicious kiwi pie known to man. It is the values implemented
