ANNOUNCEMENT 2nd APRIL 2026
“All good things must come to an end” and “it’s someone’s story every day” are two well worn clichés that have become so commonplace they rarely even garner attention these days, but it is with a heavy heart we have come to a very difficult decision and that day has arrived here at Inch House Pudding.
Ever since we started out offering our products for public consumption almost 20 years ago, we have prided ourselves in remaining faithful to the original recipe handed down through the generations and our unwavering insistence on using only fresh Irish pig’s blood as the main ingredient.
Due to circumstances completely beyond our control, the reasons for which are a conversation for another day, we simply cannot secure a continued supply of this crucial basic element to maintain our current levels of both quality and volume.
As compromising quality is not something that is even open to consideration, and levels of volume are already small in the grand scale of things due to the hand-made, artisan nature of our products, we are therefore unable to continue to produce our puddings.
Today was our last day of production, our last orders have been dispatched, this chapter is now closed and our beloved Granny Mary’s recipe book has been put back on the shelf until the time comes for it to be called on again, who knows when.
We would like to thank all our customers and suppliers, some of whom have been with us from the very start, for your unwavering support through good times and bad over so many years. Never underestimate the difference even a small gesture can make to an independent producer or retailer. They might say money makes the world go round but the words of kindness have the biggest impact on the people at the other side of the counter.
What started out as an act of necessity became a labour of love and the most rewarding aspect of the entire journey has been the interactions with all of you, be it through in-store tastings, shows, festivals, trade events, online interactions, or even just a chat on the side of the street.
Thank you all once again and best wishes for whatever the future holds.
Best wishes from Máirín, Dana and all the Inch House Pudding family.
