The Story of Yorkshire Baking Company

Our Story

Founded upon 50 years of experience

Yorkshire Baking Company was founded upon 50 years of experience in the baking industry by bakers who are serious about their art, Based in the heart of Yorkshire, we believe baking is not just a means to an end, but an ideology, a way of life, a way of expressing yourself, expression not by silly marketing or adverts but with the perfection of the product that is created, by the cakes that are baked.

Our modern-day production methods allow us to create both classic cakes and new favourites. We aim for perfection in every cake we bake. We’re also backed up by our AA BRC Food Certification—the highest accreditation in food safety.

Our ideology has been endorsed by several major retailers, who stock and promote Yorkshire Baking Company cakes. Another key factor in our success has been our belief that cakes taste best when they’ve been freshly baked, using exactly the same ingredients and techniques as traditional recipes. For this reason Yorkshire Baking Company has state-of-the-art facilities, with a team of resident bakers and cake decorators who share our ethos. This enables Yorkshire Baking Company to proudly bake the finest cakes.

We are proud to rank within the top ten cake brands in the UK according to The Grocer, alongside iconic names —established names that we are aiming to emulate in the near future
