We are delighted to share that two of Kylemore Abbey's seasonal favourites have reached the finals of Blas na hÉireann, the Irish Food Awards.

Kylemore Abbey's Homemade Chocolate Biscuit Cake and Christmas Pudding have both secured places in the prestigious finals.

Award-winning at the 2023 Blas na hÉireann Awards, our Chocolate Biscuit Cake is lovingly handcrafted in Sr. Genevieve's Chocolate Kitchen on our 1,000-acre estate. Made with premium Valrhona chocolate, this rich and indulgent treat combines smooth chocolate with an irresistible crunch, creating a favourite that delights chocolate lovers of all ages. We are thrilled to see this much-loved product once again recognised by the judges and shortlisted for this year's finals.


At Kylemore Abbey, we know a thing or two about indulgence, and the proof really is in the pudding. Based on a timeless recipe perfected by the Benedictine Nuns over generations, it is rich, traditional, and bursting with festive flavour. Capturing the essence of Christmas in every bite, it is the perfect centrepiece for seasonal celebrations.



We are incredibly proud to see these much-loved products reach the finals of Blas na hÉireann and congratulate the dedicated teams behind them on this fantastic achievement.

Pre orders will be available soon
