WHAT MAKES OUR BUNS SO SPECIAL?

We've been baking Chelsea buns since 1920 - and we're famous for it. We still bake them by hand, to the original, secret recipe - over 300,000 a year of them. Sticky, sweet and memorable, these buns are a must-try for visitors to Cambridge and a regular treat for many of the locals.

CHELSEA BUN FAQs

In short, yes! Our Chelsea buns are best consumed on day of arrival and will last up-to 7 days but they can be microwaved to 'revive' them but we only recommend doing so one bun at a time and for 20 seconds on a medium heat.

Our Chelsea buns can be frozen in an airtight container upon arrival. Simply defrost fully prior to eating.

We suggest following the Serving & Storage suggestions that arrive with the buns, which advise how best to heat Chelsea Buns individually in the microwave once defrosted.

Chelsea Bun syrup should be stored at room temperature, in an airtight container.

As well as our original, bestselling Chelsea buns, we also offer bake at home buns for fresh-from-the-oven deliciousness.

For special occasions, we have Chelsea bun cakes, Chelsea bun number cakes and trays of buns, perfect for parties.

There’s also various seasonal flavours to enjoy, and for Cambridge locals you can visit our cafés for our famous Chelsea bun ice cream.

Let down by the loaf cakes

The Chelsea buns, scones and macarons were delicious. The loaf cakes didn’t survive the journey and were unrecognisable. I suspect the packaging needs rethinking for these.

Hi Mia, thank you for your feedback. We're glad you enjoyed the other items and will look into better packaging for the loaf cakes, especially in warmer weather. We appreciate your input!

Impressive hamper

Easy to use and clear website. Purchased for delivery to a family member, so didn’t see the hamper myself. However she was thrilled with it and was impressed with the contents (and she used to work for years in a traditional baker shop). Felt it was good value, quality items and received timely comms for the delivery which was spot on

Nice afternoon tea hamper but packaging and delivery not good enough in heat

Nice afternoon tea hamper but packaging and delivery not good enough in heat. Both mini loafs arrived with liquid icing sloshing around on top. Ice pack around clotted cream had also completely melted on arrival.

Thank you for your feedback, and we're sorry for the delivery issues in the heat. We're working hard to improve our packaging for warmer days. We appreciate your understanding and hope to send you something delicious again soon.

Contents great, presentation disappointing

Contents were delicious but it's a shame the box (which I collected; it wasn't delivered) had a huge order label pasted onto it that could not be removed - disappointing as it was a gift.
