“Sugar and Spice and All Things Nice” –
Walter Burnett’s Famed Gingerbread
 

 



Over 80 years ago, in a rural highland town at the foot of the Grampian Mountains, a baker named Walter Burnett created a gingerbread unsurpassed to this day.  He christened it with the name of the town, which had previously been made famous by the author and play-write Sir James M. Barrie.  Many will know the works of this famous writer, which include “Peter Pan” and “The Admirable Crichton” among others.

The wrapping design of Kirriemuir Gingerbread has remained unchanged for decades and centres around a picture of a house, with the caption “A window in Thrums” - the house (below) was at the centre of one of Sir Barrie’s earliest books of the same name, and Thrums was the name he used for Kirriemuir.



Walter’s original recipe is still followed nowadays and although this premium product is now manufactured at Bell Bakers’ Dykehead Bakery, the same skill, expertise and highest quality ingredients remain in use. 

 

 

 Sugar and Spice and All Things Iced
Walter Burnett’s Famed Iced Gingerbread

Also available in all supermarkets is the modified version of Walter Burnett’s Famed Gingerbread…with a layer of icing for those with a sweet tooth!

Once again, the picturesque packaging design has been kept; the only change being the colour – a cool blue.
