About Us
At Kirtons Bakery Limited, we craft more than bakery products — we craft experiences of taste, quality, and distinction. For over a century, our name has been synonymous with excellence, blending heritage, artistry, and meticulous attention to detail.
Founded in 1895 in Leicester, Kirtons began with a simple philosophy: the finest baked creations are born from premium ingredients, skilled hands, and unwavering pride in every product. Today, that philosophy remains at the heart of our business, guiding our evolution as a modern, sophisticated bakery manufacturer.
Our portfolio blends heritage and innovation, offering an exquisite range of cakes, muffins, cookies, shortbreads, brownies, cereal bars, cookie pucks, steamed puddings, seasonal delicacies, and more. Each product is carefully crafted to deliver exceptional flavour, texture, and presentation. Whether a signature favourite or a bespoke creation, every item reflects the refinement, consistency, and quality that our customers have come to expect.
We serve a discerning clientele across retail, foodservice, healthcare, education, and hospitality, offering flexible solutions through frozen, chilled, and ambient distribution. Our scale and technical expertise enable us to deliver volume without compromising the care and precision of a craft bakery, ensuring every batch exemplifies excellence.
At Kirtons, quality and food safety are uncompromising. Our experienced team combines artisan knowledge with modern manufacturing standards, guided by rigorous systems and continuous innovation. From concept to creation to delivery, every step is designed to exceed expectations and protect product integrity.
Innovation drives us forward. We continually refine recipes, processes, and offerings to meet evolving tastes, trends, and dietary requirements — while maintaining the signature quality and sophistication that define our brand.
From our bakery in Leicester to tables and businesses across the UK, Kirtons Bakery Limited delivers premium products that embody heritage, craftsmanship, and an enduring passion for exceptional baking — honouring the past while shaping the future of luxury bakery manufacturing.
