NZ Black Pudding
We’re excited to announce the launch of our brand-new Black Pudding, crafted with the same care, tradition, and premium ingredients that have made Holly Bacon a trusted name in New Zealand since 1914.
This isn’t just any black pudding — it’s a rich, flavourful tribute to the European classic, made right here in New Zealand using locally sourced ingredients and time-honoured methods.
What Makes Our Black Pudding Special?
Black pudding has long been a favourite in traditional British and Irish breakfasts — and now Kiwis can enjoy a locally made version that honours the original while meeting modern expectations for flavour and quality.
Here’s what sets Holly Bacon’s Black Pudding apart:
-
✅ Authentic texture and spice blend – balanced with warming pepper, herbs, and just the right amount of seasoning.
-
✅ Pork blood and oatmeal base, following traditional recipes.
-
✅ Made in small batches to ensure flavour consistency and quality.
-
✅ Proudly produced in New Zealand using locally sourced meat and our signature bacon.
-
✅ Versatile and satisfying – perfect for breakfast, lunch, or as a gourmet addition to salads and starters.
How to Cook Black Pudding
Our black pudding is pre-cooked, so it only needs to be gently heated to bring out its full flavour.
Try it:
-
Lightly pan-fried and served with bacon and eggs
-
Crumbled into mashed potato or bubble & squeak
-
Grilled and added to a gourmet burger
-
Sliced and topped with poached eggs and hollandaise
-
Paired with scallops for a sophisticated starter
A Natural Addition to the Holly Bacon Range
At Holly Bacon, we’ve been crafting quality bacon, ham, and sausages for over 111 years — and our new black pudding is a natural fit. It’s made with the same commitment to traditional methods, high-quality NZ meat, and real flavour that Kiwis have come to trust.
Available Now – Limited Batches!
Because we make our black pudding in small, artisan batches, availability may vary. Order online or look for it in select retailers across New Zealand.
