THE real McCoy. If you've never tried it, you can't say you've found the best.
(29)
This is THE real McCoy. A mix of rare fresh blood, British oats and barley, pork fat, onion and spices, our craft black pudding is incomparable to mass-produced, dried blood versions. Succulent and rich, we supply our puddings to some of the finest chefs and eateries in the land. Choose either a 1.25kg stick or a 350g chub.
To cook: Slice, remove outer skin, quickly grill or fry both sides to 'crozzle' making sure inside is piping hot. It freezes beautifully too.
With over 250 stockists nationally, is one near you?

Definitely superior
We do breakfasts in our village hall on the first Sunday of every month, where we often serve more than 80, and have tried several different black puddings over the last 2 years. We served yours last Sunday and everyone said that it was definitely the best. We have tried many different black puddings, in particular from Scotland and Cumbria, but yours surpassed them all. Since doing breakfasts our sales of black pudding have soared, I expect because many people had never tried it before, or perhaps had eaten nasty cheap versions, and did not realise how good it can be. I work in the kitchen and us cooks and washer uppers were especially lucky as we were able to eat many small pieces of black pudding throughout the morning - and that was before we all sat down to our large breakfast. So, you are definitely onto a winner.

This Black Pudding is Fantastic.
Full of flavour and so Juicy!
Not only do our customers love it, but more importantly I get to eat it whenever I want, which is all the time.

Incredibly good. I usually like my Irish puds, mostly oatmeal, minimal meat taste; but for a traditional crumbly English pudding this is by far the best I've ever tasted. Surprisingly sophisticated and powerful flavours. Brilliant stuff. Mouth watering anticipation.

From a Lancashire Lad
I grew up in Lancashire in the 1950s and 60s and one of my early memories is of Oldham's Tommyfield Market, a genuine old fashioned outdoor market. There were several stalls that sold black pudding and it was a common sight to see people eating it as they walked around the market. It had an almost creamy texture and was not over seasoned. Today's black puddings, even the so called ‘Award Winning' ones, are a pale shadow of that, I suspect because of food safety laws that mean most black pudding is produced from blood powder that comes from so many sources that nobody can attest to its provenance. The Fruit Pig Fresh Blood Black Pudding is, without doubt, the best I have ever tasted by a country mile. It has that creamy texture I remember along with a taste that just bursts with flavour without having any one key ingredient dominating. If you love good food you really must try this black pudding: you will not regret it, I promise.

Black Pudding Nostalgia!
I'd given up buying modern black puddings, as they were universally bland and a pale imitation of he puddings of my youth. That was until I read an article explaining why they were so tasteless. 95% of puddings are now made with imported, dried pig's blood. I then discovered the Fruit Pig and received my first order last week - black puddings, morcilla and the intriguing 'mutton bacon'!
My first recipe was for black pudding Scotch Eggs (River Cottage recipe). An absolute delight and also enjoyed by my carnivorous partner (steak tartare with raw egg type of lady!) and importantly by my 92 year old mother (a tripe and onions type of lady). She declared them to be as good as they used to be.
Not yet tried the morcilla or 'bacon', but will definitely order more puddings.

Absolutely delicious! I came across Fruit Pig fresh blood black pudding some time ago and was really taken by the difference in flavour. Other commercial black pudding that you can buy has a dry mealy taste, but this has a light and bright flavour that is almost perfumed.
It freezes well and keeps nicely. My wife is not a fan of black pudding. What a shame! All the more for me!

Best black pudding ever
Having tried black pudding from everywhere l have never found a taste that replicated what l remembered from childhood days in Leicesteshire.
Now l have. Fruit Pig make the best black pudding. If you want the real thing you must try this.

Outstanding produce. Yum!
We absolutely love everything about Fruitpig. 5 star all the way.
Jim Fennell
Quite simply there best there is!
The Fruitpig Nitrate-free bacon is utterly sublime! There is no watery residue when you cook it and it honestly tastes like no other. We don't bother buying our bacon anywhere else now, as ordering and delivery is so straightforward. We couple this up with slices of Fruitpig Black pudding whenever we feel like a real "Fat Boy brekkie" and the result is true "food therapy"!

Black Pudding
There are many British Black Puddings and I have eaten most of them; Stornoway is good, Bury is quite nice but, none of those approach the soft, delightful creamy joy of the Fruitpig Black Pudding. Further more, if you considered Gluten Free a bit of a fad; try the GF Black Pudding, you can practically pour it over your cereal it's so creamy. Just mind with the cooking! Black pudding is already boiled when you get it so a couple of minutes on each side grilled or fried and you are done. even on thick slices. Over cook it and you have thick slab of MEAT (still superior to most BPs mind) but if you cook it just to crisp the top and bottom then the texture and taste are so good you might just consider taking up Vampirism for a neat fix of the good stuff.

Simply the best

Black Pudding in Lancashire
I recently reviewed your website following my watching an old episode of Jamie's Friday Night Feasts.
I was keen to try your real blood black pudding and was delighted to see that Tom Wood was based in Blackburn near to where I live, and stocks your product.
I bought some black pudding this weekend and felt compelled to drop you a line to say that my husband and myself are totally converted. It was superb and could not be more different to any product we have previously tasted!!!
It was a delight to find your website and subsequently Tom's market stall.

"Delicious" doesn't do it justice.
Highly recommended.
Most efficacious, in every way.
And, nothing more to say!

Delicious! There is no other
Buyer beware, no other black pudding will do after you try this! The best.

Proper dag how it should be
Irrelevant of the taste of this dag, it is made with real blood, not dried blood which in the most has been imported. Dag was always made with fresh blood, hark back to the days of yore when family farms were mixed, a littloe arable for feed for the stock, a couple of pigs to eat the scraps. Slaughtering the pigs was a backyard thing, and the fresh blood would be collected once the pig had been slit and was bleeding out. Having made dag in the past, using the fresh blood from our own pigs, I understand the difference real blood makes to a black dag - it is fresher, cleaner and has a much improved mouth feel, some would say it is creamier and smoother than dried blood dag. Fruitpig have produced a fantastic product, it packs a punchful of spicy goodness (not chilli spice, but good old fashioned spices), giving a nice warm glow and firing you up for the day ahead. One slice of dag and one of the white dag with a fried egg - my new go to breakfast, every single day. No cereal, no milk, just black goodness and a little white goodness for balance weshed down with a good old slug of caffeine. Boom. Get after it folks, it's the law!

Love this
I come from Lancashire even though I have lived in Yorkshire most of my life now. and black pudding is a staple in the red rose county. This is the best black pudding I have ever tasted. I get it from my local butchers but I will start getting it delivered directly now.

I purchased a whole stick of black pudding from one of the butcher's you supply, simply astounding. I have bought loads of whole black puddings over the last few years and have always been disappointed. Perfectly spiced and crisps up lovely on outside and soft in middle.
Mike
Better than Stornoway
My son used to bring Stornoway black pudding from Lewis. This is even better.
Judi
As good as it gets
My wife and I agreed, this is the best black pudding we've eaten, as good as that one we found in a little deli in Norfolk. And yes, it turns out that deli is a fruitpig dealer, it was one and the same.
Ham
Amazing Quality
I had only ever eaten black pudding from Supermarkets before and this stuff blew my mind! Great taste and quality ingredients
Mark
Outstanding!
This is simply the best black pudding you will ever eat. What more can I say?
