About Us

Immerse yourself in the world of your favourite book.

Bookish Bakes baking kits are more than a simple dump-and-bake box – they’re a unique sensory reading experience.

Our kits are designed to take you on a journey alongside the unforgettable characters of classic and modern fiction.

By combining the act of baking a treat inspired by the story with reading, our kits create an engaging, sensory experience that transports you into the pages of the book. Share a pint with Bilbo and the dwarves or join the Bennets for afternoon tea in Longbourn’s gardens!

Amanda is a London-based recipe developer and voracious reader who whisks love and passion into each of her baking kits. Her carefully crafted recipes are designed to immerse you in the world of the book that inspired them. Each box is lovingly packed up by hand and delivered straight through your letterbox so that you can get baking as soon as it arrives.

Carve out some time for yourself to relax and unwind with a delicious literary treat and escape into the pages of a beloved book like never before.

  • "What a wonderful idea! Such a lovely kit and easy to follow instructions. My 12 year old daughter received the lemon tea biscuit kit as a gift and she absolutely loved it! Plus the biscuits she made were delicious! Can’t wait for more boxes!"

  • "Everything about this experience was wonderful! From seeing the photos online and reading about the product, to receiving it, making it and then tasting it. I couldn't believe how delicious the cake was, and Amanda made the instructions super easy to follow and everything was beautifully presented. I bought a box for a friend after trying because I needed someone else to enjoy the same magical experience."

  • "I LOVED this kit. Eating the cake while reading made me slow my reading and eating down and made me enjoy both much more. I think this is a wonderful concept and I will definitely be making more seed cake as the recipe was delicious! And I will be coming back for another Bookish Bakes box."
