HANCOCK GOURMET LOBSTER COMPANY
Old Port Lobster Flatbread
"LOBSTER, LOBSTER, LOBSTER AND MORE LOBSTER." This is how Cal
Hancock, owner of Hancock Gourmet Lobster Company, describes the
philosophy behind this year's Outstanding Frozen Savory winner.
With more than a whole lobster in every package, Old Port Lobster
Flatbread is a new approach to enjoying the company's namesake
crustacean. "We immerse the large pieces of sweet Maine lobster in our
lemon-herb butter, then add lemon zest, parsley and artichoke hearts—just enough to
enhance, not hide, the taste of the lobster," Hancock says. "It's then topped with Pecorino
Romano cheese. All of this is on a crispy, flavorful flatbread. Perfect for an entree for two
or cut into smaller pieces for a tapas party or appetizer for entertaining."
The all-natural product is offered as a single flatbread in a retail package, in a case of
six for foodservice and in a package of two for mail-order.
Hancock's mission is to create products that "wow" consumers. "It has to taste good,
look good, and be easy to prepare," she says. "We use only fresh, locally sourced ingredients.
Maine lobster is now certified with the Marine Stewardship Council, an eco-friendly and
sustainable industry ensuring the preservation of this valuable resource." Suggested retail
price: $22.95/11.5 ounces. Contact: Cal Hancock, Hancock Gourmet Lobster Company;
