A partner or loved one
Your partner or loved one deserves the world and we think we have just what it takes to bring joy this festive season.
A bouquet as crisp and elegant as the first winter snow. The full bodied white blooms bring a sense of calm and freshness to any space, creating the perfect contrast against the rich, warm colours of the season. Simple, sophisticated, and undeniably beautiful, it’s a gift that says I love you in the most graceful way.
Christmas Chocolate Hazelnut Rocher Cake
Nothing says I love you more than a sweet treat. This decadent cake is a true showstopper, made for sharing over tea, hot chocolate, and a favourite Christmas movie. Picture the two of you curled up by the fire, twinkling lights on the tree, and slices of chocolate hazelnut heaven on your plates. Available in both 6 and 8 inches though whether they choose to share is entirely up to them.
There’s no better gift than making memories together. Our Christmas Afternoon Tea brings the warmth and charm of the season straight to your home. Every bite captures the magic of Christmas, with flavours including warm spiced fruit scones, savoury cheese scones, clotted cream and winterberry jam, tiramisu cake loaf, sage and cranberry rolls, and classic breakfast tea. For an extra touch of celebration, there’s even the option to add prosecco because nothing says Christmas like a little sparkle.

The warming flavours of our soft and delicious Carrot Cake make it the perfect choice for the colder months. Gently spiced and beautifully moist, it’s a cake that feels like a hug in every bite.

For a friend
