The Grasmere Gingerbread Shop has been fêted with food awards acknowledging the quality of its unique produce.

Yet the daily challenge stays the same - to bake the freshest, tastiest chewy biscuit in the world!

“The last slice of Grasmere Gingerbread to be sold on any given day has to be as delicious as the first piece bought by the first customer first thing in the morning,” insists Joanne Wilson, who manages the shop.

“Keeping all our customers satisfied is our aim and their accolades mean everything to us.”

“However, when the awards from official organisations started coming in everyone involved in the shop got a real buzz - it was flattering and exciting at the same time.”
