Peter Sawkins to front a new campaign for Scotland Food & Drink

Peter Sawkins, the youngest ever winner of The Great British Bake Off, is to front a new campaign for the Scottish Government and Scotland Food & Drink “Scotland brings so much to the table”.

The campaign celebrates the depth and breadth of Scottish produce, raising awareness of the wide range of produce made and grown in Scotland, as well as highlighting how important it is to support the Scottish food and drink industry.

Peter said: “Scotland has so many products that go beyond the classic haggis and salmon, from everyday staples such as eggs, milk and vegetables to the more unusual celeriac, nori and scallops. When I’m cooking at home I try to cook with seasonal local Scottish products as much as possible. Although most foods are available in the shops all year round, it’s important to buy locally sourced food when they are in season as they are never beaten on taste.”
