SACRAMENTO SCONE MAKERS INTRODUCE SWEET NEW TREAT TO COLORADO

Sacramento - Denver's fine pastry lovers have reason to rejoice.

FatCat Scones®, a new Sacramento-based company, is bringing its all natural, gourmet scones to King Soopers grocery stores throughout Denver.

Anthony Van Rees, company co-founder and a classically trained pastry chef, says FatCat Scones is "out to change the way Americans view scones and how they serve them."

"While a scone's texture should be somewhere between cake and a biscuit, most Americans who've tried scones often find them very dry and plain," Van Rees says. "We're making scones the way they ought to be made: fresh, MOIST and delicious."

FatCat Scones are currently sold in over one third of the King Soopers stores in the greater Denver area, with more stores being added weekly. The all-natural scones contain no additives, preservatives, hydrogenated oils or transfatty acids and are available at the bakery counter in such gourmet flavors as Peach Passion Fruit, Pumpkin Oat Spice, Wild Blueberry and Maple Walnut.

FatCat also makes frozen, ready-to-bake gourmet scones people can make at home. These are available online, at www.FatCatScones.com and at other specialty food retailers nationwide.
