Quality you can taste

We use only the finest ingredients, carefully selected for their exceptional quality and flavour.

Pure butter

Pure butter

Real butter. It gives our pastry its rich, butter flavour and that melt-in-the-mouth, flaky texture you only get from a proper Eccles cake.

Vostizza currants

Vostizza currants

Grown in the Vostizza region of Greece and protected by origin, these small, intensely flavoured currants are prized by bakers the world over. They are the heart of every cake.

Premium raisins

Premium raisins

Succulent raisins selected for their natural sweetness and juicy plumpness, balancing the currants with a softer, rounder flavour.

Handmade Eccles cakes on the production line

Still folded
by hand.

Although we have modernised our bakery to meet today’s safety and food hygiene standards, our Eccles Cakes are still carefully handmade: the finest Vostizza currants, raisins, butter and sugar, wrapped by hand in a shell of flaky, buttery pastry. The Edmonds family recipe and method have been handed down through generations.

Baked by the Edmonds family since the 1930s.

The Eccles Cake is a traditional product, believed to have originated in the town of Eccles, just five miles from our bakery. The Edmonds family recipe and method of manufacture has been handed down through generations, and every Eccles cake is still folded and finished by hand.
