About us
Woodlands Bakeaway offers handcrafted fudge and cakes* for every occasion.
We are a small business that was founded in 2019 by a mother and daughter team and have been providing delicious handcrafted fudge to the local community and online shoppers ever since. The bakery's fudge is available in a variety of flavors and includes gluten-free and dairy-free and vegan options.
The fudge at Woodlands Bakeaway is made using high-quality ingredients, and the bakery offers a range of unique flavors. Some of our most popular flavors include Caramel, Fruit and Nut, and Bailey's & Pistachio! Additionally, we offer seasonal and celebration-themed fudge, including products for Christmas, birthdays, Valentine's Day, and other special occasions.
Woodlands Bakeaway can also caters for events. The bakery's team works closely with customers to create an offering that suits their tastes and preferences.
*While the bakery specialises in fudge, we make cakes as well - transporting a fancy cake is difficult however, so we consider cake requests on an individual basis depending on requirements and location. Nonetheless, the bakery's team is committed to creating beautiful and delicious cakes for special occasions, using only the freshest ingredients to create custom designs that suit the event's theme and style.
With a commitment to using high-quality ingredients, personalized service, and sustainability, the bakery is quickly becoming a favorite among locals and online shoppers alike.
Our story
In 2019 my daughter (and best friend) Jos and I talked about her starting a cake making business. She had the skill (but not the confidence), I had the time so…BOOM!...We set up a market stall in Framlingham (Suffolk – you know the village where Ed Sheeran was born and brought up). My first day was a bit daunting as it rained non stop all day but amazingly people were so supportive and bought our cakes. Our aim was to hand out cards so people could contact us with orders for cake occasions.
Then in 2020 Covid-19 came to visit. I was unable to continue at Framlingham as the space was too small for social distancing. While we couldn’t go out to sell, we did drive thru Saturday “markets'' where neighbours, friends and family placed orders via text/WhatsApp and we simply passed their orders for doughnuts, milkshakes, homemade ice cream, brownie and cakes through the car windows as they drove past. It kept us busy and provided some fun in those scary months!
Thankfully I was accepted at Hadleigh market which runs every Friday and were allowed to continue through later lockdowns as they were food. Well fudge is food isn’t it!!
We can’t remember where the idea came from to sell fudge instead of cakes but somehow we came up with it and here we are!
To see which markets we're at follow us on Facebook or Instagram or read our blogs.
