ABOUT US
ABOUT US
One of the city’s best-loved craft bakeries we are celebrating our 8th anniversary in 2024.
We've gone from strength to strength since opening in Victoria Park now operating from three outposts across Cardiff, as well as trading at local farmers markets and operating as wholesale, to some of the City's finest independent cafes and restaurants.
A pioneer of craft Sourdough baking in Cardiff - we are constantly evolving and inovating our products. We now employ 11 full and part-time bakers, and a total of 38 staff, proudly training new Apprentices every year.
Pettigrew founder David Le Masurier said “We are thrilled to have celebrated the 8th birthday of our bakery business. It was a chance to say thank you to our wonderful customers who have supported us over the years, through some of the most challenging circumstances imaginable for a small, family-owned business."
Pettigrew Bakeries is the sister brand to Pettigrew Tearooms, based in the Grade II listed West Lodge of Cardiff’s Bute Park - a well-known destination for one of the city’s best afternoon teas. David opened Pettigrew Tearooms in 2012, following a career in hotels, acting on long-standing desire to open his own tearoom which he documented extensively on his blog, I Want To Bake Free.
SOURDOUGH
Our Sourdough range is 72 hours in the making, harnessing the long slow magic of natural fermentation. Sourdough bread is a millennia old technique involving fermentation of dough using naturally occurring lactobacilli & yeast. Sourdough bread is easier to digest, has more depth of flavour & better inherent keeping qualities over yeasted breads.
VIENNOISERIE
Simple and perfect. Using 100% Estate Dairy cultured butter from the heart of Somerset to laminate our skillfully crisp pastries, we have created a range of Viennoiserie that would not be out of place in Paris' finest establishments. From classic Croissants & Pain aux Chocolate to our generously filled Almond Croissants we are rightfully proud of our pastry.
PATISSERIE
Straight from the collective mind of our award winning in house Patisserie Team we combine the technical skill of classical french patisserie with new and exciting flavour combinations. Our products change seasonally, offering a beautiful, elegant and downright delicious tasting experience.
