Loaf Mould

Whether you're making fresh bread or even pasta bakes and lasagnes, you'll love this non-stick mould for its flexibility and easy-clean qualities.

Bonfire Parkin

Parkin is a northern bonfire night tradition. A sticky soft ginger cake it's usually made using oats and treacle and eaten on 5th November. This version is light, fluffy and very low in calories compared to a shop bought version - only 86 calories per portion and 5.6% fat. If you make the cake a few days before and leave it in an airtight container the flavours will develop even more.
