At its heart lies a delicate fusion of flavours, meticulously balanced spices, and a sumptuously moist texture, infused with the sweetness of dried fruits. Each bite offers a symphony of tastes that dance on the taste buds, evoking memories of cosy kitchens and warm gatherings. Traditionally served with a generous slather of creamy butter, which melts gently into its tender crumb, Bara Brith fruit loaf is the epitome of comfort food. Paired with a steaming cup of freshly brewed tea, it transforms a simple moment into a sublime culinary experience, inviting you to savour every sip and bite.

Highly recommended

I bought this Barra Brith loaf for an elderly Welsh friend. His Mum died when he was very young so his older sister looked after him. the first thing she learnt to cook was Barra Brith! He said you Barra Brith was as good as hers and it took him back home to the valleys. Thank you.

Short date life

I have been with you for a while now since your QVC appearance and have always been more than happy with pies and cakes of all types, but was very disappointed with my last order at Christmas the dates on the bara brith gave me less than a week to be eaten, one did go in the freezer otherwise everything perfect as usual.

We had quite a few visitors recently and all liked the cake with or without butter with their cup of tea. A lighter fruit cake with a slight tea taste.

Perfect for Christmas time

Really enjoyed this loaf, has just the right taste and not too sweet or overpowering, if you’re curious I’d definitely recommend.

Very tasty

First time I have tried this loaf so can't compare to others but for me and husband we found it very tasty. I fear some fruit cakes and loafs due to hard peel in them but this was not a problem. Glad we tried it

Bakers Since 1936

The origins of our bakery date back to 1936 when Wilfred Charles Lewis, a local of Swansea & Gower, decided to start making pies for the community.

Wilfred Charles started his small bakery in a single room in Fleet Street, Sandfields. He made his pies in solid metal tins and cooled them on the pavement outside. Wilfred perfected his craft, and soon enough he gained a reputation for his delectable pies.

Today and since 2013 it’s the third generation of the Lewis family, Wilfred James Lewis, that continues to guide the business.
