Company description:
Rodda’s, the world’s leading producer of Cornish clotted cream, is celebrating 125 successful years in business.
From humble beginnings in a farmhouse kitchen in Scorrier, this iconic Cornish brand is still made to the same exacting standard but now produces 220 million servings of their silky clotted cream a year, exporting to restaurants, cafes and hotels across the globe.
Employers of a 170 strong workforce, Rodda’s is still owned by the same family, with great-great-grandson Nicholas Rodda now at the helm.
Rodda’s clotted cream is known for its distinctive rich and creamy texture and golden crust. Cornish clotted cream received Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) status in 1998, following a long campaign spearheaded by the Rodda family and joining the ranks of Champagne, Stilton cheese and Parma ham. In order to comply with regulations, Cornish clotted cream must be made within Cornwall and baked in the traditional manner to form the iconic golden crust and dollapable texture.
Rodda’s clotted cream is marked with prestige throughout history, most notably being served as part of Prince Charles and Princess Diana’s wedding breakfast in 1981. The cream was also chosen as part of the last meal ever served aboard a Concorde flight from London in 2003. Today, Rodda’s is an international success story, enjoyed in top hotels and restaurants as far afield as Australia, Japan and Dubai.
