Log on to our new site!


From Monday 6th October our website will have changed, we can still be found at the same address, www.jordanscereals.co.uk, but the site is now far more fun, lively and entertaining. Alongside some information about how brothers Bill and David Jordan set the company up in the 1970's there are also delicious recipes, competitions and plenty of news and views from Jordans.
We hope you like it, if you do then please sign up to our e newsletter which will keep you updated with what we are doing, thinking and saying, as well as fun stuff too. From Monday this blog will have moved onto the site, we hope you move with us!
Thanks
Rachel

Muesli spotted in the South West


Blogged by Carol:

Here's a photo sent by Gill and David with the first sighting of our new muesli down in the South West, spotted in Sainsburys at Pinhoe in Exeter. The eagle eyed will also spot that Sainsburys currently have 1/3rd off our Jordans Country Crisp and it looks to be selling fast in Exeter!

Good Grain




Rob has finally managed to get his harvest home, far later than he would have liked but at least all his tasty oats, wheat and barley are now carefully stored away for the coming year. I went to see the grain store yesterday and was amazed at the sheer size of the grain mountain. Rob is just relieved to have finally finished driving his combine though there is hardly time for a rest as the ploughing and planting for next year's crop as to be planted right away.
I love the fact that the cereal I held in my hand yesterday may end up in my bowl of muesli very soon. And through meeting Rob and some of our other Conservation Grade farmers I know the sheer effort they put in every single day to grow our grain for me, and lots of other people to eat and enjoy.

Merry Cherries


Our new Limited Edition Frusli bar, Cherry & Cocoa nib has been rolling off the production line this week. The combination of flavours was chosen by Emma Paget who entered our My Frusli competition earlier this year. We wanted to make sure we were asking people what they really wanted when they fancied a cereal bar so My Frusli was a competition where people were asked to design their own flavour of bar. The combination of dark morello cherries and roasted cocoa nib clearly caught the eye of many of those who voted for their favourite flavour and came out as the clear winner.
The cereal bar team have been carefully tasting and testing the recipe ever since and now the bar is ready for you to try. We hope Emma is pleased with the final product and tells all her friends to give her winning bar a try.

How much honey can one person eat?



You can't beat a piece of toast with honey as a midnight snack. Though when I went through my cupboard last night I was slightly disturbed to find a plethora of honey varieties. I clearly have a minor obsession with the sticky stuff. My current favourite was bought on honeymoon in Scotland a few weeks ago, it's just the right consistancy and is really yummy.

Jordans Muesli has landed!

Word on the street is that our new muesli range has been spotted somewhere in a Sainsbury's store in South London. The exact location has not been confirmed so please do keep your eyes and ears open and let us know where you first see those pretty little boxes!
