Three students from Byerley Park Primary School have won a competition to produce desserts for 213 school menus in Co. Durham.
Taylor Shaw catering suppliers prepare 25,000 meals a day, served by over 600 staff and when their cooks noticed their puddings were not being eaten it was decided to allow students to design sweets they would eat, all following healthy guidelines with a 50% fruit content.
Three local schools, including Byerley Park, were asked to design desserts along with promotional posters and poetry. Byerley Park scooped the dessert designs. Their tasty puddings were added to all school Taylor Shaw menus throughout the County at the beginning of the new school term.
The winning desserts were by
Katie Longstaff: Katie’s Cheesylicious Cheesecake
Ollie Shotton: Ollie’s Fruit Bread
Rebekah Mawson: Crazy Peach Cornflake Tart
Headteacher, Alison Gargan, said she and all at Byerley Park are very proud of the three pupils and delighted that their designs are now a reality.
