Dragons’ Den pitches – Monarchs Pure Cheese crisps

Romanian entrepreneurs Grigore Davideanu and Alexandru Rus serve up a cheesy alternative to the crisp on Dragons’ Den this week.

And they describe their Monarchs cheese crisps as tasting like the cheesy bits that have gone a bit chewy on a cheese toastie.

You had us at the word cheese.

Dragons’ Den star Deborah Meaden calls the snack “cheese crisp porn”, although of course she can’t taste the snacks as she is vegan.

Meanwhile Sara Davies says the crisps are “next level”.

Although Peter Jones questions why the name is the same as an airline…

The crisp alternative Monarchs crisps are “100 per cent British cheddar”.

Pure Cheese Crisps are made entirely from tangy mature British Cheddar and organic spices, baked by hand in Warwickshire.

One customer said: “Absolutely love these cheese crisps, so tasty and convenient to grab and go! Fab macros for keto/low carb lifestyle.”
