Check out the below list… hopefully it gives you a bit of inspiration on where you can stock up on some delicious local Cornish produce. During times like this it’s important to support local businesses. We want to say a massive thankyou to all the businesses working so hard in Cornwall making sure that individuals who are isolating get the necessities they need. Without all your help this time would be even more difficult than it already is.

TiramisUGO
If you have checked out our Facebook Page, then you will know that we rave about TiramisUGO and so do many other people in Cornwall.  They are famously known for their delicious tiramisu and we can clarify that for you- it is out of this world. The recipe combines the best of both worlds with Italian Coffee; Mascarpone Cheese, Vicenzi Savoiardi and Cornish eggs from St Ewe. They are offering a home delivery service that covers Truro to Penzance and Truro to Wadebridge. Don’t be under the misconception that this is a takeaway service, TiramisUGO has taken it a level up and is offering a ready meal service that comes in 3 items; the pasta, a mix of grissini and the tiramisu. If you’re looking to indulge this lockdown or spice up your week then TiramisUGO is the way to go! Date night – they’ve got you covered!

Baker Tom
If you’re not already familiar with Baker Tom, then let us enlighten you! Baker Tom blessed Cornwall 10 years ago when he baked a couple of fresh loaves and they all sold out in his local farm shop. The rest was history. Now with two cafes and five shops Baker Tom’s success is something to marvel at. Whilst you may not be able to go out to one of his shops or cafes and purchase a scrummy loaf, Baker Tom has two other options for you. One of which is a mobile bread van which focuses “on small communities who may not have access to the shop for fresh bread” the other of which is a freshly baked bread box delivered to your door!
