Although we are a new company, we have been baking biscuits in Ashbourne, Derbyshire, for over 70 years.

In 1935, the Spencer family started making biscuits at the back of their tea shop. The bakery name was 'Green Dragon', and it dates back to 1605 when the building was a coaching inn.

The original Ashbourne gingerbread recipe came into the family's hands in the early 1800s from the French chef who invented it, and has been passed down from generation to generation ever since.
