Yes, you read that right. A vegan pasty just beat the traditional lot at one of the UK’s biggest pie competitions. And not just any competition; this is the British Pie Awards, now in its 17th year, judged by 168 pie aficionados from the UK, USA, and even Japan.
This year, over 900 pasties and pies were up for the crown, but it was Phat Pasty Co’s multi-award winning plant-based masterpiece that rose to the top this year, outshining 17 rival pasties to snatch the gold.

What makes this win even sweeter? This was the first plant-based pasty to hit the market six years ago. The OG of vegan pasties. And now? It’s officially the best pasty in Britain.
The message is clear - vegan food isn’t just here to stay, it’s taking over. Delicious plant-based options are winning hearts, taste buds, and now… awards.
So, a massive congrats to The Phat Pasty Company, you just changed the game.
