St. Ewe Rich Yolk: 2 Gold Stars:
Great Taste Feedback:
“With its sensationally bright marigold yolk, this really is an eye-catching egg. The white is firm and has cooked well with no stringy bits. Clean yet rich, this is exactly the egg we would like for breakfast with soldiers.”
St. Ewe Rich Yolk cartons have had their colours reversed, moving from a yellow to an orange base, leaning into the unique selling point of the product, its rich, orange yolks. Having been developed with chefs and foodies in mind, St. Ewe has dialled up its Rich Yolk USP, by updating the carton strapline to ‘the richest yolks for foodie folks’, honing in on those credentials.
St. Ewe Rich Yolk is available in retail packs of 6, and the newly launched 10 pack. Available at Tesco, Ocado, Great Cornish Food Store, Booths, Morrisons RRP £2.50
St. Ewe Original Medium & Large: 1 Gold Star:
Great Taste Feedback:
“The eggs have a beautifully coloured dark rich yolk. The yolk is very creamy and has a hint of mineral notes coming through. Fresh and vibrant egg. That yolk is fabulous. A clean mouth feel and flavour with a mellow under grassy tone. The yolk is rich and creamy and the white almost cleansing.”
The St. Ewe Original egg cartons have been made a deeper, bolder blue and unlike before, both the Original Medium and Original Large cartons lean into St. Ewe’s reputation as ‘the eggs in the blue box’. Previously available in retail packs of 6 & 12, St. Ewe Original eggs now come in 10 packs - a response to the rising cost of living and changing consumer shopping habits.
St. Ewe Original Large 10 Pack is available now in Tesco for RRP £3.95. Available at Tesco, Sainsbury’s, Great Cornish Food Store, Morrisons, Ocado.
St. Ewe Rich Yolk: Our Opulent Collection: 1 Gold Star:
Great Taste Feedback:
“What a treat. The sheen and firmness of the white are perfect, and that yolk! What can we say? Rich and dense with flavour - a joy with a product that is so often neglected for its flavour. These are happy chickens for sure. Beautifully poached eggs with a bright white albumen and richly golden orange yolks. A deep eggy aroma is savoury and enticing and their fresh grassy flavours deliver a lengthy note. Clearly a well-produced egg from very happy and healthy chickens. Very vibrant and clean looking eggs. A lovely creaminess to the yolk and a firm silky white.”
Exclusively from hens at their prime, St. Ewe Rich Yolk: Our Opulent Collection marks a new chapter in the St. Ewe journey, celebrating over 40 years of their British family farming legacy. Fed with signature Rich Yolk feed, St. Ewe Rich Yolk: Our Opulent Collection is a testament to the brands unwavering commitment to quality.
Available in retail packs of 6 eggs. Available at Tesco, Ocado, Booths. RRP: £3.50
St. Ewe Super Eggs: 1 Gold Star:
Great Taste Feedback:
“A wonderful looking egg - crisp white and rich golden yolk. The texture is excellent, giving a good mouthfeel with the clean, simple flavour of a quality egg. A startlingly bright, deep orange yolk. Well-formed egg, the white is clean and fresh. Gloriously golden, creamy yolks and whites with good integrity.”
