Strawberries and Cream

Every year about 27,000 kilos of strawberries are eaten during the Wimbledon Tennis Championships, together with 7,000 litres of cream. The popularity of serving strawberries with cream is possibly as old as the event itself. The club held its first tennis championships in 1877. They were witnessed by a few hundred spectators in what is described as a “garden party atmosphere.” Today, the Wimbledon championships are attended by more than 500,000 people as well as carried to millions around the world through mass media and the Internet.

Blackfriars has successfully captured the ‘taste of Wimbledon’ in the Strawberry Fields Flapjack – a delicious blend of strawberries and cream that taste of summer. So this month, to celebrate the Wimbledon season, why not treat yourself to a box of Strawberry Fields Flapjacks to enjoy whilst watching the game?

Go Murray, Go!

Unusual Client Christmas Gifts

If you are looking for an unusual Christmas gift for a client this year that will be remembered and can be shared amongst theur staff whave you thought about sending a box of Flapjacks? Several companies did this last year and they went down very well.  They are heavy so create a big physical impact when they arrive and will make you very popular in the office!

Blackfriars offer a range of boxed up flapjacks which can be sent wherever you want them to in plenty of time for Christmas.

Flapjacks & Muffins – our very own poem

Flapjacks and muffins are not normally the stuff of inspiration for poets .  They normally prefer roses, love or er, war.  But Mr Derek Robinson has been moved by the taste of Blackfriars flapjacks and muffins to send us this ditty.  Thank you Mr Robinson.  Hope you enjoy the box of goodies that is heading your way.

Blackfriars Bakery

I really had to write to say
I’m just so glad you came  my way
Your products are the best by far
In fact I rate them all five star
If you host a party or a do
It must be” Blackfriars Products” for you
Blackfriars Products are really great
So tell your family and your mate
In summer winter autumn and spring
Blackfriars Products are just the thing
Blackfriars give you so much more
Quality value and that’s for sure
You will pay your bill and still be jolly
With Blackfriars bargains you will all save Lolly
Blackfriars Products make your life complete
The opposition just can’t compete
I send my best to management and staff
And hope this rhyme gives them a laugh
These words are true I do not jest
Blackfriars Products are just the best

By Mr. Derek Robinson

If you want to find out why our flapjacks and muffins were enough to move Mr Robinson to put pen to paper order some online today or look out for our flapjacks and muffins in the shops.

Say it with Flapjacks?

Say it with flapjacks instead?

Say it with flapjacks instead?

We have just had an order from a recruitment company who had a rather novel idea for making their newly placed member of staff welcome on their first day in their new job.  They ordered a mixed box of flapjacks from us to be sent to the new member of staffs office.  They were addressed to her with the instruction that it might be an idea to give out a flapjacks or two to each member of her news team.

We were happy to help put and the flapjacks went down well in the office and help to establish her a a new member of the team.

We’ve not heard about using flapjacks as a team building tool before but there is a first time for everything

If you love flapjacks like we do, prepare yourself for some great news!

Blackfriars now post selection boxes of your favourite flapjacks direct to your door.  We offer them in single flavours or as special mixed boxes.  That means that you can have a selection of popular flavours of different flapjacks to suit your own taste.

There is even a selection of my favourites – seethe ‘Fred’s Favourites’ box to see what some of my favorite flapjacks are.

It’s worth noting that buying your flapjacks this way means that they only cost 40p each (plus postage) so it’s a cost effective and convenient way to receive the best flapjacks direct to your door.

Flapjack selections

Flapjacks might not be the most common thing you find coming through your letterbox at home.

For me the most common thing is bills, followed by letters for things I don’t want to buy followed by things I do want to buy but can’t addord.  So imagine how excited I was when I head that Blackfriars were launching a new service where you can order boxes of flapjacks (and muffins and cakes) through the post.

This new service allows you to buy a box of single flavour flapkacks or from one of our popular mixed selection boxes for a fixed price of just £9.99 for 25 flapjack bars
