Ten delis in Sussex have been named among the best in the country.

The awards are in their second year and are the brainchild of Dorset-based firm Olives Et Al.

The full list of delis nominated are: Battle Deli, Battle, near Hastings; Bill's Produce Store, Lewes; Cheese Please, Lewes; Corbins Delicatessen, Uckfield; Coriander Deli and Restaurant, Hove; Crumbs of Sussex, Washington; La Cave a Fromage, Brighton; Le Gourmet Delicatessen, Hove; Taj The Grocer, Hove The Old Forge Deli, Storrington.

Voting takes place at www.delioftheyear.co.uk and closes at midnight on May 31.

Deli winners will be announced at the Speciality Fine Food gala dinner on September 6.
