Thursday 29th March
Halloooo-
Yaaayyy- some super Spring sunshine We are all loving this weather which well and truly makes our rural setting just come to life. We’re loving seeing the blossom coming out on trees and the magnolia buds ready to burst. The animals are all out there sunbathing; yes we’re jealous of the dogs, fish and horses. Caught Bee snoozing earlier today- my appearance provoked a quick roll in the dust before she got up and shot me a truly miffed look. Ooops !
Snoozy time for Bee
It’s all been crazy busy here over the last week as Charlotte and Vicky spent the weekend at the Food and Drink Expo in Birmingham. They came back late on Tuesday with big smiles after receiving many compliments on the stand and all the delicious samples. We hope we make amazing cakes, and it’s always lovely when others confirm this. Our new Sconeybun (part scone, part bun) was a big hit, just how we like a product launch to be!
Our Sconeybun is launched!
Sally had a fantastic long weekend in Cornwall – what perfect weather! She enjoyed herself very much, and has returned wearing her summer wardrobe (meanwhile i’m still in a woolly cardigan). Sally is now super busy with online shop orders, so possibly won’t thank me for reminding you, BUT not long left now to order your Easter Treat tins – last orders Tuesday 3rd April.
Order your Honeybuns Easter Treats
We’re delighted to now offer international deliveries for all our friends overseas, full details are available at our online shop. Now you can send delicious treats to friends and family – just allow a little extra time (and a few extra pennies I’m afraid). UK mainland order postage and packing remains free for orders of £20 or more, so no increase there, unlike the rather large Royal Mail hikes announced this week!
Preparations are well underway for next week when we’ve got special visitors from Jamie Magazine! www.jamieoliver.com/magazine They’re coming to spend the day with us, find out all about Naish Farm, the Bee Shack and the team- we’ll be featured in the May/June issue- how very exciting! We’ll obviously let you know when copies are in the shops! Click on the logo below to see a brief article in the current edition of the magazine.
See Honeybuns in the May/June edition!

They use Madagascan vanilla to create a range of ridiculously good products, see their range at www.vanillabazaar.com
