Barry Bloomer, Thorntons sales and operations director, said: “As the market leader in premium confectionery with a GBP220m turnover, and with GBP53m in grocery retail growing at over 40%, it is a natural progression for Thorntons to branch out into the chilled desserts category. We chose to work with Elisabeth the Chef as they have a strong reputation for innovative and high quality products across both chilled bakery and pot desserts.”
