Clark's Pies

Clark's Pies, also known as Clarkie's, is a pie manufacturer based in Cardiff, Wales. The company was established in 1913 by Mary Clark, and it has since become a staple of the local cuisine.

History

Mary Clark, a native of Newcastle, moved to Cardiff in the early 20th century. She began making pies in her own kitchen, using a recipe that remains a closely guarded secret to this day. The popularity of her pies led to the establishment of Clark's Pies in 1913.

The business has remained in the Clark family for over a century, with the fifth generation currently at the helm. Despite changes in ownership, the company's commitment to quality and tradition has remained constant.

Products

Clark's Pies are known for their distinctive shape, which is a result of the unique baking process. The pies are baked in a round, rather than a square or rectangular, tin. This gives them a characteristic round shape, which is often referred to as a "Clarkie".

The company offers a variety of fillings, including beef, chicken, and vegetable. All pies are made with high-quality ingredients and are free from artificial preservatives.

Recognition

Clark's Pies has received numerous awards for its products, including the Great Taste Award. The company's pies are also a popular choice at local sporting events, and they have been served at the Cardiff City Stadium and the Millennium Stadium.
