Great news for food enthusiasts in North Belfast and beyond! Builín Blasta, the acclaimed Irish food brand, has officially launched its range of delicious premium condiments in Tesco stores across Northern Ireland. This means it's now easier than ever to add their unique, award-winning flavours to your home cooking.
Originating from a chef-led café kitchen on Ireland's scenic west coast, Builín Blasta has rapidly grown into a nationally recognised name. Their products are celebrated for their distinctive slow-smoked onion flavour, achieved through a special smoking process that results in a wonderfully rich and deep taste profile. It's truly something different for your pantry!
The range now available in Tesco includes their signature Smoked Onion Mayo, alongside the Spicy Smoked Onion Mayo and a lighter version, Light Smoked Onion Mayo. These condiments have already garnered significant recognition, including multiple Blas na hÉireann awards and Great Taste Awards. The company is also a finalist in the Small Firms Association Small Business Awards for the second year running, highlighting their commitment to quality and innovation.
Heather Connolly, Founder and Managing Director of Builín Blasta, expressed her excitement about this new chapter. "We’re absolutely delighted to see Builín Blasta launch in Tesco stores across Northern Ireland," she said. "This is a really exciting step for us, and we’re thrilled to share our passion for good food and bold flavour with NI shoppers." Heather also emphasised their ongoing pride in the independent retailers who have supported them, like Indie Fude, Sawers, and Belmont Larder, acknowledging these relationships remain a vital part of their business.
While expanding its reach into larger retail, Builín Blasta continues to operate its café, bakery, and food business, staying true to its roots. So, next time you're in Tesco, keep an eye out for the Builín Blasta range – it promises to bring an exciting new flavour dimension to your meals!
