Angela says,
“I want us all to enjoy traditional, flavoursome teatime cakes which we savoured as children. There is nothing more enjoyable than having afternoon tea in calming surroundings, served on pretty china, with spotless white tablecloths and napkins. Sheer Heaven!”
“Cakes that tickle your taste buds every time!”
It is important that a cake looks and tastes delectable – there are no half measures. AJ’s strongly believe that good quality ingredients, a well-balanced recipe and tender loving care goes into making beautiful cakes. Ingredients are an important factor so AJ's use a good quality butter, locally sourced free range eggs, full fat milk and cream, and fresh fruit and vegetables whenever possible as these add a natural sweetness and moisture to the bake.
All cakes displayed in The Shop have gone through an extensive process to ensure they look presentable and taste delicious. To this end, AJ’s have used the services of local Taste Testing Teams to ensure the Bakers high standards are met.
