At the heart of this hot cross bun tear-and-share loaf lies a celebration of tradition and togetherness. Each golden, pillowy bun is delicately spiced, studded with plump, juicy dried fruit, and crowned with the signature cross—an irresistible nod to Easter’s beloved classic. Baked to perfection, the glossy, caramelised crust gives way to a soft, fluffy interior, bursting with warm, comforting flavours.

Designed for sharing, this loaf invites hands to reach in, tearing off piece after piece to enjoy with family and friends. Whether served warm with a generous spread of butter or paired with a drizzle of honey, it transforms any moment into one of pure indulgence. Enjoy alongside a steaming cup of tea or coffee for the ultimate cosy treat.

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.
