The Ambrosia company have been making their products here since 1917. "In 1917 Alfred Morris opened the Ambrosia Creamery in Lifton, Devon. The very first Ambrosia product was a dried milk powder for infants, although one of the first orders was from the War Office for soldiers in WW1. In 1937 Ambrosia Creamed Rice was launched and has remained a flagship product to the present day. Then, in 1969, Ambrosia launched the first canned Devon Custard, made in Devon, using local milk."
