Baked to Perfection

In England everything stops for tea and traditionally cake is served. We believe a classic English fruit cake is one of the world's great culinary inventions. Our mission is to bring these delicacies to food lovers all over the world.

    A Long Tradition

    Our cakes are baked in small batches, by humans, not by mass production machines. Using an old family recipe, they're lovingly made in a family-run bakery in SW England.
