Flavours & Ingredients

We use only the finest ingredients, paying attention to seasonality and making the most of what is naturally at its best. We make all of our fruit conserves, compotes and curds. We forage our elderflower in Wicklow and grow our own lavender and herbs. We use Cocoa Barry chocolate. We use local North Wicklow free-range eggs, and Irish butter. All of our fondant cakes are masqued with a complimentary chocolate ganache before dressing. We do a chocolate biscuit cake, a very special fruit cake and a variety of sponge cakes, filled with chocolate ganache, fruit curds or buttercream.
