Our Christmas Products
Whether you are seeking a special item that you remember from childhood or you are experiencing these unique products for the very first time we know that you will taste our passion and quality.
No artificial flavours means real rum, real brandy, genuine fruit, wine from local vineyards and fresh ginger.
Christmas Pudding
TRADITIONAL CHRISTMAS PUDDING
A rich and traditional pudding, very heavy in texture. We recommend serving with butter sauce. Made with brandy, dates, figs, almonds, and other fruits. One pudding goes a long way. This pudding will keep for a long time due to the alcohol content. Steam to warm. Contains alcohol. Does not need refrigeration.
STICKY TOFFEE PUDDING (Gluten Free)
This is a very moist cake made with dates slathered in authentic Bliss toffee. Very delicious! We recommend serving warm with ice cream or whipped cream. This pudding is also gluten free without sacrificing any of the flavour. Requires refrigeration.
A Word About Our Christmas Cake
This is not what most people think of when they hear fruit cake. These cakes are truly delicious. We use only real rum and brandy, we use no artificial flavours. The fruit in the cakes soaks for over a month in rum giving the cake a rich, decadent flavour.
DARK CHRISTMAS CAKE
The dark cake is heavier, richer and more flavourful than the light cake made with molasses and brown sugar. Made with heavier fruits such as dates and raisins generously soaked with dark rum. The cake has a layer of marzipan and the top layer is vanilla fondant. We even make our own marzipan from raw ingredients. Contains pecans, almonds, Brazil nuts, and hazelnuts. Contains alcohol. Does not need refrigeration.
LIGHT CHRISTMAS CAKE
This cake is lighter in flavour than the dark cake. Made with light rum, almonds, pecans, and hazelnuts and lighter fruits such as candied apricot and raisins. Light fruit cakes are hand decorated with nuts and fruit and an apricot glaze. Contains alcohol. Does not need refrigeration.
Assorted Christmas Cookies
RASPBERRY THUMBPRINT COOKIES
Shortbread cookie rolled in walnuts with a dollop of raspberry jam.
GINGERBREAD
We lovingly hand decorate our gingerbread cookies to become something extra special for the holidays. Our gingerbread is made with fresh ginger for an authentic flavour.
RUGELACH
A traditional Jewish pastry made with cream cheese, rolled and filled with raisins and walnuts.
EGG NOG COOKIES
Light and crisp outside, fluffy inside. Made with real egg nog. The perfect accompaniment to an egg nog latte.
Festive Cheesecakes
DOCTOR SEUSS CHEESECAKE
The perfect Christmas cheesecake. White chocolate and peppermint. The topping is white chocolate ganache tinted with matcha powder and sprinkled with crushed candy canes. Dr. Seuss would be proud.
THE BIG MERRY HOHO EGGNOG CHEESECAKE
Rich and seasonally spicy flavours of nutmeg, cloves and cinnamon all enhanced with real Kahlua, topped with a warm-spice icing. All this deliciousness is nestled into a gingerbread crust.
Sweet Seasonal Specialties
MINCEMEAT TARTS
Mincemeat does not contain meat! It is a collection of different fruits (apples, currants, apples and pears) and almonds that are soaked in rum to preserve it. Traditionally mincemeat is made with suet (beef fat). Ours is vegetarian and does not contain suet, instead we use butter. It is a very traditional English dessert. Our mincemeat is made from a 12 year old starter making it incredibly rich and very delicious. Mincemeat tarts are hand made, traditional shortbread. Very nice on their own or warmed and served with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream. Needs refrigeration.
STOLLEN
This is a traditional German Christmas bread. Hearty sweet bread with lots of fruits and nuts, a little bit of light rum and a ribbon of our house-made marzipan. A great bread for gift giving and hostess gifts. Does not need refrigeration.
NANA’S SHORTBREAD
We make our traditional shortbread with real butter. It almost melts in your mouth. Perfect with tea or coffee on Christmas morning. Does not need refrigeration.
PUMPKIN GINGER ROULADE
An amazing dessert. We take moist ginger cake rolled with candied ginger (we shred and candy the ginger ourselves!), whipped cream with mascarpone cheese rolled together and dusted with icing sugar.
