Scottish Bakers asked customers across Scotland to vote for their favourite bakery items in the following categories: morning roll, scone, small cake, savoury, biscuit
and bread scoring each on appearance, freshness, taste and value for money.

The top products in each category were baked and delivered to Dunfermline for judging by a panel of independent experts (including Mrs Foodie!). The judges had one day only to look at the best baked items in the country in order to decide the regional and national winners.

As soon as the full listnis available, we will post it here!
