Commenting on the launch, founder Greg Wixted said “We really wanted to do something fun and different but authentically British when we started to look at both the baking course and Afternoon Tea. As the only baking brand who make an afternoon tea baking box, we thought making a fresh one was a natural progression, and we injected a lot of fun into the different bakes to create visually stunning and delicious Afternoon Tea and garden party boxes”
He continues “The kids option one was a lot harder, we spent a lot of time trying to find the right balance of fun educationally and technically, we wanted to make sure our younger bakers could master the dreaded Macaron. But with a bit of baking magic we have the process down to 2 simple steps, even my five year old nephew can now make them perfectly every time and better than me!
All the boxes are on sale from today on www.britainlovesbaking.com, from Uber Eats and a Picnic version through a selected retail partner. The fresh Afternoon Tea boxes will be available until the end of the summer and the Kids Course and Baking Kit until the end of the year.
