Looking ahead and taking time to reflect...
It’s an extremely belated Happy New Year to all of you from all of us! December passes us by in a blur of activity at Meg Rivers HQ. We successfully delivered hundreds of parcels to addresses across the length and breadth of the UK, fulfilled orders on behalf of our corporate customers and...

We’ve just had Harvest Festival, the school Halloween Disco is imminent and all I can think about is Christmas Cake!...
A picnic is still a picnic
We have a family tradition - once a year in the summer our stepmother Edith packs a beautiful picnic for us to enjoy.
Fuss free & fabulous wedding cakes!
Once upon a time we did offer wedding cakes but Dad (whose job it was to deliver and set up said cakes at the wedding venues) was always a nervous wreck with the pressure of driving and assembling such precious cargo. With the help of Jess and Felicity we have convinced him to offer wedding cakes by post...as soon as he knew he wouldn’t be the designated delivery driver he was on board!
Spreading HOPE & JOY with our new Hamper collection
These beautiful gift hampers have been my personal project for the last few months and I’m thrilled with the final results! All of your favourite gift occasions are still covered (Birthday, New Baby etc) but going forward and encouraged by the hugely positive feedback we had at Christmas, all of our gift hampers now include a donation to our charity partner, Teenage Cancer Trust.
Ingredients - Choosing the Best
We are proud to have always used free range eggs and these come from a farm just one mile away from the bakery.
