Family Bakers Since 1983
Freshly baked bread, pastries, specialty cakes and more from our bakery in Ringwood and tea rooms in Fordingbridge.
Your Local Family Bakery
Our journey began in 1983 when Peter Ellis, a true artisan of the baking craft, and his wife Ruth embarked on a culinary adventure that has been a labour of love for over four decades. Peter's passion was ignited at 15 when he left school to work for a family-run bakery in Essex, later honing his skills at Southampton Bakery College where he was Top Student three years running.
What began as a small family enterprise has grown into a beloved local institution with a master bakery and two shops serving Ringwood and Fordingbridge. We specialise in traditional baked goods made using long-fermentation methods, and the Ellis family's four children all play an active part in the business today.
