We absolutely LOVE seeing our products out in the world — and this fantastic display in Seoul, South Korea really caught our eye 🇰🇷❤️

A huge thank you to our customers for sharing these brilliant photos from last week. We especially love what they’ve done with the boxes — such a striking and colourful showcase, and our Baked Treats looking right at home on display!

It’s always incredibly proud-moment stuff seeing Reid’s travelling across the globe and being presented so beautifully. 🌍✨

Thank you for the support — and for making our shortbread look so good!

✨ A little trip down memory lane… ✨

We recently came across this lovely gift we received back in 2010 from the children at 3 Bears Nursery after their visit to the bakery. 🐻💛💙

It’s hard to believe those little bakers who came to see us all those years ago will now be around 20 years old! Where has the time gone?

We’re always so grateful for the thought, creativity, and kindness that goes into gifts like this. They mean more to us than you’ll ever know — and we keep them safe as part of our story.

If you recognise any of the names or dates, tag them below — we’d love to see where everyone is now! 😊
