Billington's

Psst. We have the secret to make your already awesome bakes phenomenal. Introducing the finest quality caster sugar for baking – Billington’s Golden Caster Sugar.
What is golden caster sugar? The perfect natural alternative to refined sugar. You can use it in the exact same way and quantity as caster sugar, however, this ingredient adds a magical touch to your bake; a warm golden colour and subtle buttery flavour, ideal for light and fluffy sponge cakes, satisfying shortbreads and dainty macaroons.

Proper Nutty

Not quite smooth, not quite crunchy – Proper Nutty peanut butter is the perfect balance of smunchiness.
Lovingly prepared and freshly batch-roasted in a little Yorkshire factory, then smunched to perfection. There’s nothing added to their peanut butter that doesn’t need to be there (other than a touch of sea salt in the Slightly Salted jar).
Mix it in a buttercream, add it to a cookie or eat it by the spoonful. Enjoy it Smunchy

Nielsen-Massey

Nielsen-Massey Vanilla Extract - the secret ingredient to guarantee that every bake has the x-factor. A drop here, a dash there, this Vanilla Extract is bursting with all the flavour and aroma of vanilla pods.
A showstopper on its own or the perfect partner to compliment other ingredients or flavours vanilla is the ultimate flavour enhancer. Savoury or sweet. Cake, cupcakes, buttercream and indulgent treats, this is a must-have ingredient in your kitchen.
What is the difference between vanilla extract and vanilla essence? Well, this extract is derived solely from hand-picked vanilla pods sourced from the finest growing regions of Mexico, Tahiti and Madagascar and entered in a cold extraction process extracting the vanilla from pod, preserving of 300 flavour compounds. For that reason, we always recommend extract instead of the more artificial Vanilla essence to achieve the scrummiest of flavours.

Allinson's

Is plain flour and all-purpose flour the same thing? In answer, yes and it is a staple baking ingredient in most kitchens.
We love Allinson’s Plain White Flour as it is expertly milled from British wheat. Whilst it doesn’t contain any raising agent, like Self-Raising Flour, it is often combined with baking powder or bicarbonate of soda in a recipe to create a beautiful rise in the oven.
This flour makes a whole host of bakes from scrummy scones to pretty tarts and pastries, producing a light and delicate texture. Also, a handy ingredient to have around when thickening sauces.

Allinson’s Plain Wholemeal flour is bursting with wholegrain goodness, perfect to add a little extra fibre to your bakes. You can substitute this flour with white plain flour in your bakes, it is worth noting however that it may produce a slightly denser bake so you might want to add a splash of extra liquid that the recipe asks for; e.g. water or milk.
This flour makes the scrummiest scones, fabulous fruit cakes, pastries, tarts, you name it. Switch from white plain flour in darker cakes, such as fruit and chocolate, and your cake-tasters won’t even notice they are getting an extra boost of fibre.
