<\/div>\n\n\n\n

I’m a very passionate self-taught baker! I recently obtained a “professional competence in the bakery and pastry-making sector certificate” in Brussels. After this, I was ready to start on my new adventure but I quickly realised the biggest question I faced was what kind of pastries I wanted to sell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having spent numerous summer holidays in England as a child, I hold very “sweet” memories of all the pastries I discovered there. Fondant fancies, millionaire shortbread, digestive biscuits, chocolate sponge rolls, scones and many more have coloured those years. I completely fell in love with British bakes!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the other hand, I also have tender childhood memories of the little choux \u00e0 la cr\u00e8me and frangipane pastries we got from our local market and all the marvellous more \u201cclassic\u201d pastries we regularly ate at home, such as merveilleux, javanais, mis\u00e9rable, \u00e9clairs, \u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Big dilemma! Would I sell British bakes or turn to the more \u201cclassic\u201d French p\u00e2tisserie? After spending countless nights mulling it over, I woke up one morning thinking ‘why choose’? Let\u2019s just do both! And that was the beginning of \u201cLady Bedford\u201d. The name I chose is definitely British ; it refers to the 7th Duchess of Bedford, who inadvertently \u201cinvented\u201d the Afternoon Tea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lady Bedford offers a wide variety of British and \u201cclassic\u201d cakes, sweet and savoury tarts, biscuits and Afternoon Tea. All my pastries are made with a lot of love and care, using only the best ingredients. The pastry doughs, curds, jams, creams, frostings and fillings are all homemade.  \u201cLady Bedford\u201d stands for quality, taste and originality.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So enough talking, prepare your taste buds and join me in the wonderful world of \u201cLady Bedford\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
