🍋 One for the biscuit tin…

These lemon cookies are quick, easy and wonderfully lemony and they freeze brilliantly, so you can bake a few whenever the biscuit tin is looking a little bare.

The recipe comes from the Meg Rivers recipe book and has been a favourite for years.

Save this one for a rainy afternoon - head over to the website for the full recipe.

Happy baking! 🍋

🍸🍋 IT’S BACK!

After almost a year away, our Gin & Lime Cake has returned.

We’ve given the recipe a little tweak, but it’s still everything it should be, beautifully moist, wonderfully zesty and made with a generous splash of gin.

Our Cake Club members got the first taste. Now it’s your turn.

Handmade in our Cotswold bakery and delivered to your door.

✨ Classics never go out of fashion.

Food trends come and go, but some recipes earn their place at the table for generations.

At Meg Rivers, we've always believed in baking those classics properly, by hand, in small batches, using quality ingredients and traditional recipes.

This week we've welcomed another timeless favourite to our bakery: our handmade Bakewell Tart. Buttery pastry, fruity raspberry jam and rich almond frangipane, baked the way it should be.

If you're planning a catch-up over coffee, afternoon tea with friends or simply fancy a proper slice of something delicious, we'd love you to discover it.

🥧 Happy National Bakewell Tart Day!

There's something wonderfully comforting about a proper Bakewell Tart.

Buttery pastry, rich frangipane, a layer of raspberry jam and a generous scattering of flaked almonds and as always handmade in the Cotswolds using our traditional recipe.

To celebrate, we've launched our new round Bakewell Tart, perfect for sharing over afternoon tea with family and friends.

If you're a fan of classic British baking, we'd love you to try it.

It's rarely the presents we remember.

It's the people around the table.

The laughter.

The moment the candles are lit.

The first slice of cake.

Birthdays aren't really about getting older,they're about spending time with the people who matter most.

If you've got someone special celebrating soon, we'd be honoured to be part of their day. ❤️

There are few things better than taking five minutes with a cup of tea and a slice of cake.

Whether it's our warming Ginger Cake, a slice of Rich English Fruit Cake or something chocolatey, we think every day deserves a little pause.

What's your perfect tea and cake combination? ☕🍰
