‘Home-made soup without the hassle’ is how Alison Stokes describes her simple one-woman business Splendid Soups & Such. Home-based in Straiton since she converted her garage into a kitchen, Stokes produces a range of simple, fresh, wholesome soups in straightforward flavours like lentil or chicken, as well as a limited range of ready meals such as macaroni cheese, and when the fruits are in season, some jams and chutneys too. If you fancy a taste, you’ll find Splendid Soups weekly at farmers’ markets in Paisley, Milngavie and Balloch. Stokes also sells via a few shops in the Ayrshire area, particularly Alloway Post Office.
