Christmas Hams for Foodservice: Colonial Bacon & Freedom Farms | The Produce Company

Christmas Hams | The Produce Company

 

Colonial Bacon Champagne Hams

Colonial Bacon’s hams are a foodservice favourite, known for their quality and presentation:

  • Whole Champagne Ham
    Semi-boneless with only the hock remaining, rind intact for glazing.
    Made in New Zealand from pork raised in Canada.
    Gluten-free & dairy-free.
    Ideal for large-scale catering and buffet service. [colonialbacon.co.nz]

  • Half Champagne Ham
    Same premium quality in a smaller format — perfect for mid-sized events or smaller kitchens.
    Easy to carve and beautifully suited for traditional glazes. [colonialbacon.co.nz]

Freedom Farms Half Champagne Ham

Ethically sourced and expertly prepared, Freedom Farms hams are a standout choice for conscious kitchens:

  • Half Champagne Ham (4–5kg)
    Made from Freedom Farmed NZ pork, raised without crates or cages.
    Tunnel-boned with the hock remaining, cured and traditionally wood-smoked.
    Easy to carve, delicious, and perfect for festive menus. [freedomfarms.co.nz]

Serving Ideas for Summer Menus

Christmas in New Zealand means sunshine, seafood, and shared meals. These hams are perfect for:

  • Buffet spreads with seasonal salads and fresh produce
  • Grazing platters featuring parched cocktail garnishes (from our Hannigan Drive tenants!)
  • Corporate catering and event menus with a festive twist

Pair with manuka honey glaze, pineapple chutney, or mustard for a classic Kiwi flavour.
