They are: The Little Bakery of Dumfries, TH Carson Butchers in Dalbeattie and John Gillespie and Sons of Stranraer. The shortlist for the 2024 World Championship Scotch Pie Awards was made following the annual judging day when nearly 500 of the tastiest pies on the market were delivered to Dunfermline by 78 of the best butchers and bakers.
They were put to the test by professionals who have now selected the “best of the best”. Judges were worked hard once again as they put each entry to the taste, touch, appearance and smell test across all the categories from the iconic Scotch pie to savouries, bridies and apple pies.
The winner of the Scotch Pie category will be declared World Champion along with all best in category winners at a prestigious awards lunch in Cumbernauld on January 16.
