Grasmere Gingerbread® Wedding Favours


Looking for something with the ‘wow’ factor to spice up your wedding and thrill your family and friends? Then choose Grasmere Gingerbread® Wedding Favours to get everyone talking.

Unique Wedding Favours

Grasmere Gingerbread® Wedding Favours are unique because Grasmere Gingerbread® is unique - a moreish, mouth-watering spicy-sweet cross between a biscuit and a cake.

Grasmere Gingerbread® Wedding Favours have the power to trigger deep emotions; to evoke memories of romantic trysts in the beautiful Lake District where Grasmere Gingerbread® is still exclusively made to Victorian cook Sarah Nelson’s 1854 secret recipe.

At weddings, it is often the little ‘touches’ that people remember. So whether your bridesmaids distribute Grasmere Gingerbread® Wedding Favours before the official marriage service or place them on tables at the reception, they are sure to stay in the hearts and minds of your guests for years to come…

History

Grasmere Gingerbread® wedding favours are doubly romantic; historic descendants of shield-shaped pieces of gingerbread coated in egg white and decorated with gold given to English knights by swooning maidens at medieval jousting fairs, and trinket boxes filled with sugar confectionery known as bonbonnieres that European renaissance aristocrats gave to wedding guests.

Aphrodisiacal ginger spice is known for warming the blood and stimulating intoxicating love so Grasmere Gingerbread® wedding favours symbolise passion, happiness, health and fertility.

For any occasion

Grasmere Gingerbread® favours are equally suitable to serve at a host of other special occasions including christenings, baby showers, gender reveal parties, graduations, hen parties and anniversaries. Traditional Cumberland Rum Butter is also served at christenings and you can read about its fascinating history here.
