About Us
Berry Fresh Bakery is an Artisan Jam, Chutney and Marmalade business based in Malpas in rural Cheshire. Tom is the maker and Lynne helps and supports behind the scenes . They started the business in 2010 with Lynne baking cakes and pastries for local farmers’ markets. Tom said “what shall I do – I could make some jam for the cakes”. So he made plum jam to go into a Bakewell tart. Very soon he widened the range and added chutney to the offer. It didn’t take long for the sales of jars to overtake the cakes and pastries.
Lynne then chose to get employment and provide a little financial stability to their lives and this enabled Tom to focus on what was now a jams chutney and marmalade business.

Chutney
It is really important to enhance the flavour of the fruits, vegetables and spices in a chutney. Tom does this by carefully selecting the best vinegar and sugar to match the ingredients and complement the colour.
Marmalade
A good deal of work has gone into Tom “perfecting” his marmalades. They are fruity, citrusy and many of our customers say moreish. Again as with all of our products they are made in small batches using traditional methods. Neither do we use gelling or setting agents this means our marmalades will have a slightly looser set
Jam
There is plenty of fruit in a Berry Fresh Bakery Jam and Tom captures each individual flavour in every jar. We rely on the fruit’s natural pectin to set the jam, occasionally some need a bit of help with additional pectin and citric acid. We do not however use any other setting agents or additives.
All are made traditionally in small batches in a Maslin pan
