Our gluten free, wheat free and many dairy free cakes are a tempting indulgence, with those that try them pleasantly surprised by the taste, quality and texture the belie the perception that somehow a "free-from" product should be an inferior one. We like to bake traditional cakes but we also like to bring a modern twist to favourite classics and throw in something different for a change! We use a range of grains, seeds and nuts to replace wheat (see What is Gluten page) and either Rapeseed, Sunflower or Coconut oils to replace butter or dairy.

Brownies & blondies:

All our gluten and wheat free brownies contain South American, single-origin chocolate, either from Peru, Venezuela, Ecuador or Papua New Guinea (ranging from 64% to 71% for dark chocolate and 43% for milk chocolate).

    Baked cheesecake:  a creamy cheesecake, containing seasonal fruit, or Venezuelan milk chocolate (43%) or lemon & lime zest, on top of a GF biscuit/cake base.

    The above range is available year-round.  However, whenever we can we like to use seasonal fruit: rhubarb, gooseberries and greengages or autumnal pears & apples, for extra variety and added flavour.  We love to use vegetables, which has the added benefit of giving a lovely moist texture to a cake, as well as providing nutritional benefits. All cakes contain local farm eggs, unsalted English butter and cane sugar (though not in unnecessary amounts).

  • Butternut squash, feta & Nigella seeds
  • Woodland mushroom & truffle oil
