Swavesey Festival - no orders this Saturday
Orb is having a stall at Swavesey Feast on Saturday. We'll be there with our good friends from Fen End Country Kitchen and Rosegate Farm (a mini Over Market if you like!).
As a result we will not be able to bake orders for collection on Saturday morning but will be supplying Bushell Box farm Shop in Willingham.
Please order for Friday morning collection or come down to Swavesey Festival from 12 noon till 5pm, or shop at Bushell Box.

Bara Brith and Euro Bakes
Thanks to all the orders we had for the Welsh Bara Brith last week - hope you enjoyed it - what did you think? Would you like to see this more often on our order form?
BTW - Euro bakes on hold due to amount of other stuff going on - see above! But we will try to bring these bakes back before the end of the competition. We've found a great recipe for Slovakian Apple & Cinnamon cake which we want to offer .. so watch this space.

Challah Bread Challenge
Thanks to all those of you that stepped up to the mark and helped the Walnut Bread fans last week! Hope you enjoyed the loaves.
This week week we're trying to help out our Challah chums! Challah is a lovely enriched Jewish Feast bread - enriched with egg and, sugar - not dissimilar to a less-sweet brioche. It is plaited, brushed with egg wash and sprinkled with poppy seeds.
It's £2.40 - and if you've not tried it before well worth a punt!

No Baking Friday 1st July and Saturday 2nd July - Our Ruby's 18th Birthday Party
Our little girl Ruby was 18 earlier this year - and like the Queen we've planned an 'official' birthday party that weekend. As a result we will be catering for lots of family and friends in our garden. To get the garden and the grub ready we've decided not to bake this week - so please be aware that there will be no Orb bakes on Friday 1st or Saturday 2nd July, so no customer orders, no St Ives market and we will be unable to supply Bushell Box on the 2nd July. We'll be back to normal the following week
Most of our products freeze very well so if you may want to order a bit more this week.
