Stephen’s Bakery was selected following a robust judging process looking at all aspects of its business, with tastings and site visits from an independent panel of experts from across the baking industry.
The Stephens team prides itself on continuing to use traditional methods to produce quality hand finished baked goods. It was this commitment to craftsmanship which saw the company recognised by the awards programme.
