We had some stiff competition against some of the country's biggest sandwich companies so we're absolutely delighted to have won! We're now off to London in May for the British Finals. Wish us luck!!! #sammies2019
We decided to get a bit innovative with our entry and treated the judges to our take on the ice cream sandwich: two scoops of our homemade peanut butter ice cream topped with a homemade pomegranate preserve and served on a lightly toasted @NYBakeryCo brioche bun. #sammies2019
