Collier’s Powerful Welsh Cheddar first at Foursquare

Collier’s Powerful Welsh Cheddar is the first cheese brand to exploit the location-based social network Foursquare.
Wales’ award-winning cheese brand enjoys strong customer loyalty and was one of the first cheese brands to embrace social media channels like Twitter and Facebook to engage with its customers.

Foursquare allows users to share their location with friends by “checking in” to attractions, shops, restaurants and pubs via their mobile devices, and sharing “tips” or recommendations. They earn points for checking in and the highest number of “check ins” can lead to them being made the “Mayor” of the venue.

Collier’s Powerful Welsh Cheddar, which is made in North Wales, is urging its Foursquare friends to “check in” at top Welsh tourist venues to discover the Welsh heritage that inspired the award-winning cheese.

“We think it is important to have a two-way communication with our customers,” says Darren Gough, brand ambassador for Collier’s, "and word of mouth is still the most powerful marketing tool."

Foursquare is essentially like word of mouth with people 'talking' via mobile phone and social media.

Says Darren, “I love using Twitter to keep in touch with what’s going on and have my say. And now we have another way to reach the people who are interested in our cheese when they are on the move.”

Gordon Ramsay Electric Slow Cooker & Tagine

He is, without doubt, one of the world’s top chefs. But Gordon Ramsay is more than that. He is also a seasoned traveller, and his many cooking experiences take him around the globe learning about local cooking methods and techniques.

One of Gordon’s favourite types of cuisine is the traditional slow cooking method of a Tagine – which takes in the wonderfully aromatic dishes of Morocco. Now, you can enjoy this delicious style of cooking with Gordon’s new Electric Slow Cooker & Tagine, a unique product that cleverly combines a Tagine Cooking pot and a Slow Cooker to give you the best of both worlds!

The new Gordon Ramsay Compact Tagine and Slow Cooker will create authentic tagine cooking and a myriad of favourite slow cooking recipes with the minimum of fuss! Its versatility allows you to cook everything in the one pot. You can sear meat and vegetables and add the remaining ingredients without the need for additional frying pans. And if you are out during the day, just assemble the recipe in the morning, turn it on and leave to cook all day on a low setting – and serve up a delicious meal on your return home!

This compact machine has a 1.5 Litre capacity which will comfortably feed up to four people and it’s economical to run. The cooker comes with both a Slow Cooker and Tagine lid so that you can create both types of dishes in the one unit. There are four settings High – Low – Keep Warm – and Off - with a handy Searing Setting for browning meat and vegetables first – simply adjust the temperature control knob accordingly. The temperature probe which houses the control dial, can be removed at the end of cooking ready to take to the table for serving.

Other features include: a removable Cooking Bowl; ceramic Tagine Lid; tempered Glass Lid for the Slow Cooker and Cool Touch Base. And for added inspiration there are some great recipes to get you started.

FACTFILE:

Slow Cooking food is one of the best ways to prepare nutritious meals with ease – whether it is soups, stews, casseroles or curries. The longer the cooking time the more the flavours will develop and infuse. Your Slow Cooker is also ideal for cooking cheaper cuts of meat, the slow cooking process allowing meat to tenderise and the food to become full of flavour. Using the Tagine Lid helps you create more authentic Moroccan dishes – the shape of the lid promotes the return of condensation back into the dish keeping it juicy and mouth-wateringly succulent.
