FatCat Scones - Premium Frozen Scones That You Bake Fresh

SACRAMENTO SCONE MAKER WINS BEST PRODUCT AT 2004 NASFT FANCY FOOD SHOW IN SAN FRANCISCO

Sacramento, CA - FatCat Scones®, all-natural frozen scones that you bake fresh, was named "Best in Aisle" as one of the Best Products at the 2004 NASFT Fancy Food Show in San Francisco. The National Association for the Specialty Food Trade (NASFT) is a premier marketplace for specialty foods… where specialty food retailers, restaurateurs, supermarket and department store buyers and others discover distinctive, profitable new food products to grow their businesses. Out of 50,000 specialty food products from over 1,100 different companies, FatCat Scones was named by the NASFT, in association with The Gourmet Retailer Magazine, as one of the most outstanding products at the 2004 San Francisco Show.

"We were very excited to be named Best in Aisle," states Erik Finnerty, co-founder of FatCat Scones. "This is a prestigious acknowledgement within the specialty food space... one we are very thankful to accept."

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… we're here to change that," Van Rees says.

FatCat Scones are pre-portioned frozen scones made with only the highest quality, all-natural ingredients. Unlike traditional scones, these scones are exceptionally moist and appeal to the home chef and commercial kitchen alike. Easy to bake, what you need-when you need it, FatCat Scones come right from the freezer and into the oven, served up moist and tender in about 15 minutes. No more time-consuming recipes. No more lackluster store-bought scones. And best of all: no more dry, tasteless scones that make you wonder why you went through the trouble.
