Pippin Doughnuts was established by us in 2008.
We are both trained pastry chefs and before starting our business we had the privilege of working with some excellent chefs at Claridges, Baker & Spice, Ottolenghi and St. John.
With a love for making (and eating!) all things sweet we started our business with the aim of making the best doughnuts we possibly could.
Our philosophy is to make traditional yeast raised doughnuts using excellent quality ingredients. We do not use any packet mixes or concentrates in our kitchen ~ everything is made from scratch by us.
We make our doughnuts using flour from Wessex Mill, Oxfordshire. The doughs are made over a long period of time ~ two proves to give the doughnuts a good flavour and a light texture. The doughnuts are then fried and filled and whisked off to market.
At Pippin Doughnuts, we don't believe in skimping ~ we fill our doughnuts with plenty of jam. The fillings are also made by us and the fruits are sourced from local growers whenever possible. The range includes a traditional raspberry jam right down to the more unusual rhubarb and vanilla jam. Deliciously tart lemon curd, creamy vanilla custard and a rich chocolate ganache are also some of our best sellers.
Our doughnuts are made fresh everyday to be sold and enjoyed on the day. We believe this is how good doughnuts should be. They shouldn't be left in a bag on the supermarket shelf for a week.
It takes time and patience to make Pippin Doughnuts but we feel it makes the difference. Our doughnuts are not massed produced or churned out and we don't want our business to grow this way.
