Higgidy is on a mission to make good food, great. Believing that happiness is home-cooked, everything the team makes is made with love and finished by hand, using top-notch ingredients from suppliers they know and trust. From wholesome pies and carefully crafted quiches to seriously snackable rolls and muffins, everything is carefully crafted and packed full of flavour, bringing colour, joy and deliciousness to dinner tables, packed lunches and family fridges. But it doesn’t stop there - Higgidy believe in a better food future and that change starts with what’s on our plate. That’s why the team work closely with charities such as FareShare to help tackle food waste, PaperRound to recycle onsite materials and long-standing suppliers with high welfare standards. Higgidy is also on hand to help those reducing their meat intake, with over 70% of its range now vegetarian or vegan. There’s nothing more wholesome than a home-cooked meal. But for those times when you don’t have time, there’s Higgidy.
