The Black Farmer, the creator of award-winning gluten free sausages, is adding a new special edition sausage to his range, in celebration of the upcoming royal wedding.
Part of The Black Farmer's Daughter sub-brand, the celebration sausage features the founder's mixed-race daughter, Scarlett, offering a "moreish pork sausage with a sweet kiss". Launching in April to coincide with the marriage of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, the 'Celebration Sausage' marks the start of a new range of products that will be celebrating Britain's diversity. Further flavour combinations will follow in 2018, known as the Taste of History range.
The Celebration Sausage will be priced at £3.15. Outlet listings are still being agreed.
Wilfred Emmanuel-Jones, aka The Black Farmer, said:
“The marriage between Harry and Meghan is a momentous occasion for the black communities in the UK. For many black people, the wedding signifies that colour is now part of the mainstream rather than being on the sidelines.”
