Whats Happening

Tuesday 26th January 2021

Just a quick update as to where we are at the moment!

Our shop is open as normal Tuesday to Friday 08:30 till 17:00 and Saturday 09:00 till 16:00. We only allow one household into the shop at a time so if there is someone/people in the shop please do not enter until they have left the shop.

We continue to do both savoury dishes and a selection of cakes and pastries daily. We put a post on our Facebook and Instagram pages by Tuesday morning with the savoury menu for the week, and we then post a daily one on both platforms with the sweet options added. We also have a mailing list, to whom we email the savoury menu on Monday afternoon, so people not on social media can see it and order in advance if they wish.

Savoury crêpes-a speciality from the North of France

Shepherd's Pie

Seafood Chowder

Beef Pad Thai

Beef Bourguignon and mashed Potatoes

Vegetable Lasagna

We advise you to reserve items from the menu to avoid disappointment, it's very difficult to predict how busy each week is going to be.

We also offer free local deliveries and gift vouchers.

The support has been absolutely phenomenal, THANK YOU!!!

We would also like to take this opportunity to thank local journalist Brian Byrne ( https://kilcullenbridge.blogspot.com/ ) for all the work he does in supporting and promoting the local community. We're very grateful for the article he wrote about us in the Kildare Nationalist:

What's happening

Monday 23rd of March 2020

It's fair to say that we are all entering unknown territories ... and like everybody else, we are having to adapt to keep everybody safe.

The markets we usually do in Dublin every Saturday and Sunday have been cancelled for the time being. So with the extra time, since last week we have started a daily menu of savoury dishes to offer a wider range of options.

Here are all the details of the precautions we are taking, and how to order etc .. :

In addition to the Health & Safety system we already have in place in the shop, we are adding extra measures to comply with the WHO and HSE recommandations from now on.

1. We are offering our service in three different ways:

• Delivery to you locally free of charge

Place you order over the phone or by email, and we will deliver your order on you doorstep

• Delivery to your car in town

Place your order over the phone or by email, once you’re parked in town (i.e. at the Church car park or on the main street) give us a call. We will put your order in your car and sanitise the handles afterwards.

• In the shop

We will only allow one person at a time into the shop. We would ask that if you see a customer inside when you arrive, to please wait that that person has left, before you enter, to respect the 2 meter social distancing.

2. In addition to our regular sweet treats and macarons, we will be doing a few savoury items (quiches, stews, savoury crepes, other meat and vegetarian dishes...). We are going to publish the menu of what will be available on the day, in the morning, on our Facebook page and Twitter page. We will also advise of shelf life, what can be frozen, reheating process, ingredients, allergies etc … .

3. Payments-We encourage the use of contactless/tap payments. We can take the card payments in the shop over the phone. We also have portable card acceptance machines so you can choose to pay at the doorstep, or car window! We are still accepting cash payments in the shop.

In these unprecedented times we continue to use our long-standing Irish suppliers and will be supporting our local business friends.

Wednesday 6th February 2019

It's February already! Where does the time go?

January has flown by and there has been lots of cakes, too many to post but here are a few...

Take a look at our Birthday cakes and special occasions page on the website for other ideas and inspirations for that special occasion!

Breads

In January we restarted making and selling breads in the shop. You can find our breads each and every Friday and Saturday in the shop and if you want a specific bread made, we can do it for you...

We had to create more space in the kitchen....new table, new rack...yaaaayyy

Markets

We continue to do our two weekend markets in Clontarf, Red Stables on Saturdays and Marlay Park on Sundays

Don't forget you can order occasion cakes, macarons or anything else for collection at these markets!

Marlay Park update-from the 12th January the market has been relocated back to its original spot back inside the courtyard. We were outside the courtyard whilst the renovation works were taking place. There is a plan in place by the council to organise signage in both car parks to let people know where we are!

For now we have temporary signs...

Baking Classes

We are putting up new baking classes dates frequently so keep an eye on the baking and cooking classes page of our website.

Looking forward

Planning a Wedding? Corporate event or staff reward boxes? Communion or Christening cake?
