French pastries suppliers in the Uk

Hello,

My husband and I, we've been living in France for ten years and we moved in the UK 2 weeks ago, we are not yet familiar with the places but I wish we will at the end of this month. Changes are somehow hard but the most difficult is changes in lifestyle, as far as foods are concerned, my children longed for French pastries however I do not know much about baking. What can I do? Are there any French pastries or confectionery products suppliers available in the UK?

Hi James Grant,
Of course, there are: Belle epoque in Newton, for example, but it depends on the place you’re living. You can also ask your neighborhood, British people are friendly but if you are still shy you’d better to make researches. I’ve been living in the UK for several months now and I often order pastries at delices & goumandises when I don’t have time to go to a bakery shop but it's up to you.

There are 1000's of local bakeries making French (style) pastries, croissants, etc. even here in deepest, darkest Devon, I don't have to go far to get some good quality laminated goodness, etc. (mostly because I make it myself, but there are many cafes, etc.)

Thanks a lot Amandine and Gordon. You’re right, they are friendly and I already made friends within few days only. I didn’t really expect that there are ways to order pastries from France in the UK or we can find in every corner of the city, maybe I’m becoming older ahah… some people recommended delices & gourmandises too which I can have my order by my door but I’ll have to ask my husband before ordering.
