Product Information

Take the one tablespoon of dried yeast and sprinkle it onto warm water. After that, leave it to soften. In 'Rebecca' the narrator "steals" six Bath Olivers from the dining room sideboard before exploring Manderley by herself for the first time. However, I am sure that such an iconic part of English cuisine will continue to be produced for decades to come. Why? Because the Bath Oliver biscuits are so evocative of English culture that it would be criminal not to continue producing them. There are so many references to these biscuits in English popular culture which makes them that much more popular. Are Bath Oliver biscuits still being made? Bath Olivers, one of Britain’s favourite biscuits has been granted a reprieve, as production has restarted following an outcry over their disappearance.

years since the beginning of the collection which helped to make the Abbey the city’s Parish Church, the “Lantern of England,” as the Abbey is sometimes known, continues to be a beacon in the city: Living and Telling the Good News of Jesus with the city and its visitors, and a place to explore life in its fullest. Whether you come for its music, art, architecture, worship, quiet space, or community, the Abbey offers a welcoming and enriching experience to all who visit. If you haven’t been to the Abbey before or haven’t been for a while, make some time to visit soon. Press down all over the surface with the rolling pin, then roll out again and repeat. The 1905 recipe that I use suggests giving the dough 8 or 9 'turns', but I usually stop after 6 turns. The finest Tudor ceiling in England and France, 52 windows, the largest collection of church monuments in the country, a unique floor and heating system, a vision of heaven and earth on its façade, and stonework designed by royal master masons.And that’s just some of the architecture! One might think that a biscuit as storied and popular as the Bath Oliver would continue to be made until we started counting time in Stardates, but we would be wrong. In October 2020, United Biscuits, who had eventually acquired the rights to make Bath Olivers, folded to the pressures of the COVID-19 pandemic and halted production. A brief production run was executed in December 2020, but as of the beginning of January 2021, commercially produced Bath Olivers were completely unobtainable. Surely you could make something similar. They can’t be more than flour and water.” My mum is always enthusiastically optimistic, when it comes to what I might be able to do.Unfortunately, due to the situation with COVID-19 we have had to de-prioritise some of our lines, and this is one of the products that we are not currently producing. Not to be confused with the Sally Lunn variety,The Bath Bun Tea Shoppeis one place you can sample the Bath bun.

I don't roll out the leftover scraps of dough but cut them into smallish, irregular pieces and bake them with the biscuits, They become almost pretzel-like. Sprinkle the yeast onto the warm water and leave to soften. Heat together the butter, milk and salt until the butter melts, pour into a large mixing bowl and set aside until it is just lukewarm.Sad to hear that United Biscuits have ceased production of Bath Oliver Biscuits this month. One of the lines to fall victim to a more limited production because of the pandemic it seems. The company haven’t said they won’t make them again but wouldn’t be drawn on when production could re-start. Anyway – a good excuse to re-publish this story from earlier this year.
