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.
My Husband was absolutely and utterly thrilled with his Chelsea Buns, they were a surprise for his Birthday and he ate 2 straight away from the box!
Thank you
Chelsea Buns.
What can we say! They were without doubt everything we hoped for from the advert we looked at.
FABULOUS
As tasty as always. delivery on time. Well done
These buns were well received & much appreciated at a house party last weekend. I enjoyed them more than on the last occasion I had ordered them since they were a little less cinnamon-heavy this time.
Amazing service, super fast delivery and absolutely delicious
Got them for my daughter she said they was delicious
And they arrived in perfect condition
Son appreciated a delivery of 6 Chelsea buns as a treat. Said they were delicious.
I'm new to these buns, so had no expectation. I love a Chelsea bun and thought I'd look to see if there's any good ones for delivery, I like the traditional 'bready' bun which is hard to find now, the shop ones aren't the same (same is true with hot cross buns).
The quality of these were fine, but personally found the syrup made them too sweet (without adding additional) and it hid the taste of the bun.
All subjective and I'm sure some will love them, just not for me unfortunately.
Also a bit pricey, but understandable perhaps.
Excellent quality as always and totally reliable delivery
Delicious and delivered on time
Arrived late. Syrup disguises the freshness. Not worth the money.
I haven’t had Chelsea Buns for many years and ordered the 6 pack online to take to good friends as a taste of Cambridge. Unfortunately, they were extremely disappointing as they were very dry and not as soft and sticky as I remember them.
Hi Diana, we're sorry to hear the Chelsea Buns didn't meet your expectations. We appreciate your feedback. Please do get in touch with us at orders@fitzbillies.com - we would like to send you some of our Bake At Home Buns as we believe they are softer and stickier when enjoying outside our branches.
Very good, fast service..
Absolutely brilliant to be able to send these to a friend and surprise them with these buns. They arrived in time for a cup of coffee! (And--according to this friend--they tasted good, too).
I’ve always loved Chelsea buns, but nowadays not many bakeries sell them. That’s the reason I looked on the internet to see if any company sells them. I have really enjoyed eating the buns and given away just 2 of them. I will be ordering them again.
I ordered the chelsea buns perhaps with too much anticipation to capture the memory of 40 plus years of enjoying the buns. These are not the chelsea buns of years ago which had a rich dark flavour and aroma and certainly did not need a container of a light golden syrup. I am very disappointed sorry to say but was asked to send a review.
Sadly when we came to eat them on Sunday for fathers day they were very very dry
Hi Julie, we sincerely apologise for the dryness of the Chelsea Buns. If you'd like, please contact us directly, and we'd be happy to send you a replacement free of charge. Thank you for your feedback.
These weregoodbut usually they are great. Was it that they usually have more crunch and spic? I don't know but certainly the serving (heating up instructions were missing). I wrote a rave review with the last set.
Quality worth saving
These buns were quite nice and thankfully I didn't pour the pot of syrup over them because they are unbelievably sweet without it. Might try warming one and pouring a little custard over it.
Terrible. Dry. Crumbly.
Havr had in the cafe previously and very much enjoyed, ordered for my husbands birthday aa a treat and they were AWFUL. Have emailed for a refund.

Not to our taste, they were unlike any of the Chelsea buns we've had before, including homemade ones. The spice mix was underwhelming and verging on unpleasant.

Buns ok but delivery delayed with no expkanation
Nostalgia got the better of me ...their Chelsea Buns are now a sad imitation of those on which Fitzbillies earn't its fame. Dry and unexceptional.

Disappointing. The buns were stale and the syrup was out if date.
Too much syrup, sickly and a little wet. Flavours were good and generous amount of fruit. Just wish there was an option to not have syrup.
Delicious
Delicious gift, arrived on time and enjoyed by a dear friend.
Excellent Chelsea buns. My Dad was a master Baker, so praise indeed.
