Cornish Pasty Association

The Cornish Pasty Association is a British trade association, based in Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. As of 2013 the association included about 50 independent bakers of Cornish pasties.[1] The association successfully sought to have the name "Cornish Pasty" protected as one of the Protected geographical indications.[2] Despite the resolution of the 2012 "Pasty tax" matter, the BBC has reported that some Cornish Pasty Association members are still unsure whether Value Added Tax applies to their baked goods.[3]
