Cornucopia

Cornucopia (in Latin also cornu copiae) or horn of plenty is a symbol of abundance and nourishment, commonly a large horn-shaped container overflowing with produce, flowers, nuts, other edibles.

And it certainly was!


I was lucky enough to be invited down to The Corn Exchange for the BIG breakfast on Sunday morning to meet the producers, before the event opens to the general public.

For the breakfast we sampled some of the produce that was on offer from the stallholders, which included:

Breakfast Brownies from The Yummy Yank
Oat and Nut Granola's from Yorkshire Dales Real Food
Brioche from Sunshine Bakery
Primos own Smoothies
Preserves from Lianne Marie Binks
Also some preserves from Pudsey Pickles
Buffalo Sausages from  Snowden Hill Water Buffalo
Preserves from The Chilli Jam Man
Nanaimo Bar from Fayre By Alley

I must admit it was great to see and even better to taste what the local producer are working so hard for. 

We spend a couple of hours there walking around chatting, sampling and even buying. The sausage rolls from Sunshine Bakery, well i couldn't resit. Some chutneys from Pudsey Pickles and a lovely bit of Beef Brisket from Snowden Hill. (See what I did with it here)

For a list of all the stallholders check out Cornucopia's website.

If you missed it shame on you, but it will be back in December (22nd -24th) keep an eye on their website as it could be even bigger and better.

A big thank you to Cornucopia and the event partners!
