Three exquisite Great Taste stars

fwip is proud to announce that our magnificent Mango Vegan Sorbet has licked up an exclusive award at the Guild of Fine Food (GFF) Great Taste Awards 2021! The 3-star award, plus the stars awarded for three other flavours this year, brings fwip's grand total of Great Taste stars to 25! 

‍In exclusive company

Each year, the Great Taste Awards support, promote, and mentor artisan food producers. As one of the most trusted accreditation schemes for food and drink in the world, they offer unique benchmarking and product evaluation to generate local, regional, national, and international recognition for fine food.

Using a simple 3-star system, products are rated by a panel of experts according to how great they taste. 

Very few products receive the ‘exquisite’ 3-star rating each year – some 200 out of 14,000 this year – and this time fwip’s bestselling Mango Sorbet scooped the honours.

‍Afonso, the military mango man

Our Mango Vegan Sorbet has been a bestseller for some time now. But what is it that sets it apart as a 3-star, must-have, fine food item? 500-year-old mangoes, that’s what!

Some centuries back, Portuguese general, Afonso de Albuquerque, started meddling with mango trees in India. And it paid off. The ‘Alphonso’ variety soon became the most expensive and delicious mango to ever manifest. 

Fast-forward to the present, and these magical mangoes continue to play a starring role – in fwip’s Mango Vegan Sorbet. 

With a rich, creamy, and tender texture, the juicy pulp of the Alphonso mango has the perfect consistency for sorbet – especially one that’s been expertly fwipped. Both deliciously refreshing, and delicately sweet, our Mango Vegan Sorbet offers a real, fresh fruit flavour, that’s 30% lower in fat than traditional ice cream products (oh, and it’s Vegan-friendly – in case you forgot).    

Exceptional versatility 

We don’t like calorie counting, so fortunately there’s not much to count in a single suggested serving of Mango Vegan Sorbet. That means you’ve probably got some calories left over to get creative with our sunshine sorbet. 

What about complementing it with slices of fresh mango? Or topping it with one of our tasty froyos? Even better, why not turn it into a delicious mango cocktail?

We’ll be sharing inspiration for simple yet delicious ways-to-serve Mango Sorbet soon, but we are very keen to hear about your ideas too. Please share your creativity on Facebook or Instagram and tag us.

Meet the other award-winning fwips

There's no doubt that the Mango Sorbet stole the limelight this year but the other members of the fwip family deserve some attention too.  

The esteemed judges of the 2021 blind tasting also gave the Strawberry Sorbet, the Natural Frozen Yogurt and the Salted Caramel Gelato one star each.  fwip fwip hurray!
