Sheppy's Homemade Cider Cake

October Producer Shop Spotlight – Sheppy’s Homemade Cider Cake

This October, we’re bringing back a much-loved favourite from our bakery — Sheppy’s Homemade Cider Cake, a true taste of Somerset heritage and craftsmanship.

Originally made famous by our former chef Sally, this rich and moist cake is created using a unique infusion process where fruit is soaked for 48 hours in our award-winning ciders from Sheppy’s House of Cider before baking. The result is a beautifully balanced cake with deep, rounded flavour and a subtle warmth that reflects the cider it’s born from.

The original secret recipe has been carefully passed down to our new pastry chef Emily, who continues to bake it with the same attention to detail and respect for tradition.

Perfect for the Autumn, it works wonderfully as a comforting sweet treat on its own, or as a standout addition to a cheeseboard — pairing especially well with mature cheeses and a glass of cider.

A true house favourite, rooted in tradition and made to be shared.
