Higgidy is Adding Protein-Rich Scone Bites & Savoury Potato Frittatas
Katherine Pendrill — March 31, 2026 — Lifestyle
In an effort to meet the explosive demand for extra protein, the UK pastry brand Higgidy has added two new protein-boosted options: Scone Bites & Savoury Potato Frittatas.
Designed as an easy way for consumers to pack more protein into their day, both of the new products are designed for quick, on-the-go snacking. The Scone Bites come in two flavors – Extra Mature Cheddar & Spring Onion and Crushed Sweetcorn & Jalapeño – and both feature a rich cream cheese filling in the center. Both are also made with free-range eggs and extra-mature cheddar, allowing them to pack three to four grams of protein into each serving.
On the other hand, the new Savoury Potato Frittatas boast a whopping 14–15 grams of protein per serving thanks to ingredients like free-range eggs, extra-mature cheddar cheese, and cottage cheese. The frittatas also come in two flavors: Greek Feta & Marinated Tomato and Beechwood Smoked Bacon & Mature Cheddar.
