Christmas is coming, the cakes are getting fat....

Much as we abhor the commercialism rampant at this time of year, with Christmas advertising going up in cork the second the halloween tat comes down, we're forced to start thinking of christmas early, as we begin to bake our delicious range of christmas cakes in october!! Handmade, with a full bottle of brandy inebriating each batch, we allow our cakes to mature in the time-honoured way....

Our range includes the traditional brandy and almond cake, a gluten free whisky and walnut cake and also a sugar-free cake, which we produce closer to christmas, as without all that sugar it doesn't keep as well as the other cakes. Our brandy and almond and gluten free cakes are available either plain or hand decorated. Other christmas goodies to watch out for are all-butter mince pies, mincemeat slices which are sugar free and dairy free, cinnamon christmas cookies suitable for coeliacs and a spectacular white choc, whisky and cranberry cake.

Another exciting development is the decision to hold three christmas markets on the three sundays before christmas, in the car park outside the bakery shop. These will start at 10. Watch out for posters and flyers....
