Forget the usual, sad selection of cardboard sausage rolls.  Ours are made with Higher-welfare pork sausagemeat, with apples and a pinch of herbs, wrapped in buttery puff pastry and sprinkled with poppy seeds. Sensational.

Hot canapés that cook from frozen in 20 minutes or less

The canapé calculator: pre-dinner drinks = four per person per hour; drinks only = six per person per hour.

Our Sausage Rolls are made for us by our friends at Higgidy in Sussex, where we’ve known Camilla, the founder, since day one (she actually worked with us at COOK for a short while).

Why isn’t this made at the COOK Kitchens? Nearly everything we sell frozen we make ourselves in our kitchens in Kent and Somerset. The few exceptions are where the set-up of our kitchens doesn’t allow us to make a dish as well as we’d want to (or at all). In these cases, we find someone who cooks like we do and specialises in the dish concerned. We sell these lines under the COOK brand because they’re made exactly as we would do them ourselves, if only we could.
