Welsh Spreadable Launches at ASDA in Wales

Posted on 4th August 2023

Castle Dairies are proud to announce a new listing of their Welsh Spreadable butter at all Asda supermarkets in Wales, covering 26 stores across the North, South, East and West of the region: from Bangor to Barry, and Caldicot to Cardigan.

Made by blending Welsh cream with British rapeseed oil and adding just a touch of salt, this creamy, spreadable butter contains 100% natural ingredients and spreads straight from the fridge with effortless ease. With all raw materials sourced from Red Tractor Assured farms and a fully recyclable tub and lid, this ensures that sustainable principles are adopted throughout the length of the food chain, from agricultural welfare to packaging.

Boasting a Great Taste star from 2022, the judging panel from the world-renowned food and drink accreditation scheme noted the following in their adjudication of the product:

“Creamy and spreadable, we thought that this was a great example of a spreadable butter.”

“The level of salt is clever; enough to give the little salty edge, but not dominating or detracting from the dairy at all.”

This comes off the back of another prized year for the Caerphilly-based dairy, which saw them recently win two gold awards at the International Cheese and Dairy Awards 2023 and be named as a Food Producer of the Year finalist at this year’s Wales Food & Drinks Awards.

Speaking of the launch, National Account Manager at Castle Dairies, Emily Mulligan said: “We are incredibly pleased to have secured another launch with Asda, this time with our Welsh Spreadable. Asda have been a key customer for us over several years, and we are delighted to be furthering our relationship with them through the launch of a core product within our branded range”.

In response to the new listing, Gruff Roberts, Asda’s Local Buyer for Wales said: “Supporting local producers is paramount to Asda’s values, and so the opportunity to add a Welsh favourite to our regional butter and spreads fixture is wonderful, and we are really excited to have it stocked on our shelves”.
