About

Crafted from a secret 165-year-old recipe, Sarah Nelson's Grasmere Gingerbread® tastes like nothing on earth. Described by The Daily Telegraph as the 'best gingerbread in the world', this unique Cumbrian delicacy, a cross between biscuit and a cake is truly mouth-watering.

Their special collection of wedding favours, delightful heart-shaped or traditionally styled pieces of Grasmere Gingerbread are perfect for brides to offer as favour gifts whether getting married in Cumbria or further afield.

Medieval knights presented shield-shaped pieces of gingerbread as love gifts to their ladies during jousting tournaments. During the 18thC it was sold in the streets alongside oysters and at some fairs in the north of England gingerbread men were called 'husbands'.

It is not hard to understand why gingerbread won its reputation as an aphrodisiac; a warm and pungent spice, ginger warms the blood, excites the senses and induces passion!

These unique wedding favours can be presented in ways to match themes and colours and are surely a great talking point for any guest. We guarantee they will be eaten and enjoyed.

Please note: Grasmere Gingerbread® have suspended this service for 2021, for 2022 and 2023 please do check their website.
