Safety

Is your kitchen fully gluten free?

Yes. Nothing containing gluten ever comes into our kitchen – not ingredients, not equipment. We live gluten free ourselves.

Are your bakes safe for coeliacs?

Our bakes are made for people who need gluten free, in a fully gluten-free kitchen. If you have other allergies too, check each product’s allergen list.

Do you use oats?

Only oats that are certified gluten free, and they’re always listed on the label.

What other allergens do you use?

Some bakes contain milk, eggs or nuts. Every product page and label lists the full ingredients, with allergens in bold.

Do your recipes ever change?

Sometimes, when we improve a bake. The label on your bake is always up to date, so please check it each time.

Taste

Will it taste like “normal” cake?

That’s the whole idea. We bake soft, generous cakes the whole family wants – not a second-best version.

Will the rest of the family enjoy it?

Yes – one cake for the whole table is what we’re all about. Nobody needs a “special” plate.

Is your bread dense or dry?

We bake to order, so it reaches you fresh. For the best slice, toast it after day two.

Delivery

When will my order arrive?

We bake and post on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Most boxes arrive in 1–2 days.

Will it arrive fresh?

Yes. We bake to order and post the same day, packed with care.

Can I freeze it?

Most bakes freeze well. Each label has freezing and defrosting tips.

Can I collect?

Yes – free collection near Ampleforth, North Yorkshire, by arrangement.

Price & boxes

Why does gluten-free cost more?

Gluten-free flours and ingredients cost more, and everything is baked by hand in small batches.

How much is postage?

£4.95 for tracked UK delivery, and free on orders over £40.

Can I change, skip or cancel a box?

Yes. Change what’s in it any time, and skip or cancel repeat boxes whenever you like.

Is my money safe?

You pay per box, when it’s baked. Nothing up front, and no lock-in.

Kits & gifts

Are the kits suitable for children?

Yes – the steps are written for little bakers, with a grown-up to help with the oven.

Can I send a gift with a note?

Yes. Add your message at checkout and we’ll write it on a card in the box.
