The Claudi & Fin brand was born out of founders Lucy Woodhouse and Meriel Kehoe's passion for great tasting, good quality and nutritious food for kids. After struggling to find any natural ice lollies with natural ingredients, they set about making their own at their kitchen table. After months of experimentation they perfected the recipe for Claudi & Fin's first product - a naturally delicious frozen lolly made with Greek style yoghurt, lower sugar, real fruit and vitamin D. The lolly was a hit with their children and friends, but also with Sainsbury's who were so impressed that they put it straight into their stores. Claudi & Fin lollies are available in Sainsbury's, Tesco, Asda, Waitrose, Ocado, Budgen's and Booth's.
