| About | FAQ | Small Batches | Order Oatcakes! | Market | Home/Mission |
Each batch of oatcakes is unique in time, no doubt subtly flavoured by the weather, mood and perhaps even what was listened to during its creation.
December 2014, saw the introduction of REDS, with dried Cranberries and BLUES with dried Blueberries as a complement to our classic GNSO.
Mid-January we produced the world's first COMBO Oatcake with both Blueberries & Cranberries to much critical acclaim.

“Food preparation is a sacred activity. If you could see the sparks of light going forth from the fingertips when cooking, and the energy that goes into the food you handle, you would realize how much of you imbues into the meals that you prepare for family and friends.” |

A Brief History of Humankind - Dr. Yuval Noah Harari Yuval is worthy and compelling because he tells the story of the story... or the story of the story makers. We do well on the planet, but only because we make stuff up -- and then pretend it's real. The next great step for Humankind might be to drop the pretentions and come to grips with reality altogether. The Ki Ki So So of things! |
