ABOUT US
Hi, I’m Karen, the heart and soul behind Thrift View Bakery. Baking is my passion; each loaf and pastry I bake is crafted with love to bring comfort and connection to your table. From nurturing a sourdough starter to kneading dough and watching it transform in the oven; I find endless joy in turning simple ingredients into something that brings people together. For me, baking isn’t just a craft; it’s an expression of creativity, and tradition. Your support allows me to keep my passion alive and share the joy of baking with our community, so thank you! We look forward to sharing the delicious aromas of Thrift View Bakery’s artisanal creations, all waiting for you to enjoy.
OUR PASSION
We prioritise sourcing ingredients from local suppliers or businesses that share our commitment to quality. Our butter comes from The Edinburgh Butter Company, a family-run business that produces rich, cultured butter. The sausage meat is sourced from the local butcher in Cranfield, and the flour we use is either from Marriages Mill in Chelmsford or heritage wheat grown in Lincolnshire. We believe that using the best ingredients is key to producing exceptional baked goods.
OUR PRODUCTS
At Thrift View Bakery, we use artisan methods and high-quality ingredients to craft our delicious range of sourdough breads, sweet treats, and savoury delights. From our signature sourdough loaves to savoury sausage rolls, buttery croissants, and soft cinnamon buns, every bake is made with care and attention to detail. We take pride in our traditional baking techniques, ensuring that each product is as fresh and flavourful as possible.
OUR INGREDIENTS

Our butter is from The Edinburgh Butter Company, our sausage meat comes from the local butcher in Upper Shelton, and we use flour from Marriages Mill and heritage wheat from Lincolnshire. By prioritising quality, we create delicious, wholesome treats you can feel good about enjoying.
