This bank holiday (Sunday 29 and Monday 30 Aug) I’m teaming up with Alison of Lavenders Tea Rooms.
We’ll be at the Wirral Food Festival both days in the Wirral Farmers’ Market marquee with bread, teacakes and freshly-griddled welshcakes.
Hope to see you there!
Advance orders: please ring me on 01244 300761
Apologies to the many people who’ve contacted me to say that they’ve tried, but failed, to find my bakery. I’m only a part-time hobby baker and I haven’t got a bakery or a shop!
You can see on this website where you can buy my bread. If you’re outside my home-delivery area or can’t get to one of the shops I supply or markets I attend regularly, give me a call on 01244 300761.
Or, if you want to try one of my recipes yourself, I’m only a phone-call away if you get stuck or just want reassurance.
There’s no reason why you shouldn’t achieve the same results as I do (or better!) as I’ve no training in baking and I make all my bread by hand from start to finish and the only machines I use are (bottom of the range) ordinary domestic ovens.
Let’s all get baking!
Bad news, I’m afraid.
The Council’s cancelled the markets on the Town Hall Square on the first Wednesday of the month in February and March.
I understand the Council’s having a bit of a re-shuffle and perhaps, from April, the market will be back on.
Meanwhile, you can ring me for a home delivery any Wednesday, or buy my bread any Wednesday at Watergate Deli or Joseph Benjamin.
Again, many thanks to everyone who voted for me on the Market Kitchen website and for all the calls and messages since the television programme was aired last month. Certainly, if the competition is on again next year, I will enter and try again. Third time lucky maybe?
Latest news is that the market is going ahead and I am aiming to be there.
Forward orders by e-mail to jane.artisanbread@googlemail.com or by phone to 01244 300761 will ensure that I bake what you want.
A new shop will be opening at Acton Bridge Garden Centre on Saturday 12 September 2009, where products will be locally sourced and my Miracles, Bunbury Browns and Unbleached White loaves will be on the shelves. Click here to visit the Garden Centre’s website.
Thank you very much to all of my customers who voted for me. To my surprise and delight, I’m in the final three contenders in the north-west. Possibly, therefore, those of you who have Sky television will see me on the Market Kitchen programme later in the year…

Hooray, spelt flour’s finally arrived!
Many thanks for your patience to customers who ordered spelt bread for home-delivery or for collection from a market last week. I’ll now deliver to you or have loaves ready for you to collect from me at a market, as agreed with you individually.
The spelt I’ll be using on my next few bakes is from Shipton Mill, whose flours I know many of you agree is second to none and, as always, with my spelt bread, the flour’s organic.
As well as my usual organic-wholemeal-flour spelt, I’ll be making loaves with organic white spelt flour, also from Shipton Mill. This should be very good news, especially for customers looking for an easier-to-digest loaf for children who aren’t too keen on brown breads.
