Specialty Food Producer, Lark Fine Foods, Wins 2020 Gold and Silver sofi<sup>TM</sup> Awards in Two Categories
GOLD WINNER: TUSCAN PIZZETTA SAVORY BISCUIT FOR CRACKERS AND CRISPBREADS
SILVER WINNER: RUSSIAN TEA CAKES FOR COOKIES & SNACK BARS

Essex, Mass., August 25, 2020 - Award-winning specialty food producer, Lark Fine Foods, is pleased to announce the receipt of top honors in two categories from the 47th ANNUAL SPECIALTY FOODS AWARDS COMPETITION (sofiTM) sponsored by the SPECIALTY FOOD ASSOCIATION (SFA). With more than 1800 entries, the magnitude of winning such recognition is a true testament to the quality of Lark’s premium cookies and crackers.

In the category of Crackers & Crispbreads, Lark’s TUSCAN PIZZETTA SAVORY BISCUIT received the first-place award of sofiTM Gold. The Tuscan Pizzetta is one of three unique sweet and savory crackers to join Lark’s award-winning Olive Scourtin, creating a new SAVORY BISCUIT product line. Additionally, Lark’s seasonal RUSSIAN TEA CAKE, a nutty, buttery cookie rolled in confectioners’ sugar, won sofiTM Silver in the category of Cookies & Snack Bars.

“We're honored to receive these prestigious awards,” stated Brooke Carroll, Lark CEO. “To have the Tuscan Pizzetta so enthusiastically embraced by the marketplace since its 2019 debut, and now awarded sofiTM Gold is very gratifying. It’s exciting to have winners in two categories for the first time. The Russian Tea Cake has always been a favorite, and our new Tuscan Pizzetta is proving to be equally beloved. We are grateful to the SFA for recognizing the premium quality of our hand- crafted cookies and savory biscuits.”

Lark Fine Foods has received eight prior sofi™ Awards from the Specialty Food Association over the past 10 years. Lark’s deliciously different selection of award-winning butter shortbread cookies and biscuits are part of the Cookies for Grown-Ups® family of products.
