Llantwit Major’s Dixies Vintage Ices has been nominated for a UK wide award, as part of the Countryside Alliance’s annual Rural Oscars.
Dixies, situated in a pop-up shop in Llantwit Major’s Poundfield Shopping Precinct, sells a variety of sweet treats such as gelato and waffles throughout the year, and offers a mobile service in their vintage van.
The business was nominated by Vale MP Alun Cairns, who said, “I met with Fiona George when Dixies first opened in the pop-up shop in Llantwit and I was delighted that such a unique, retro business would be gracing the town centre. Dixies has gone from strength to strength in the past 18 months. It is a privilege to nominate them for the Rural Oscar Award for Best British Food & Drink.”
