Are you coming up to the islands on holiday?
You can use the form on this page to pre-order a welcome box containing some of our ready to eat meals, bread, cake etc.
We are happy to get a few essentials from Tesco to add to your Mollans home baked food to save you having to stop on the way. Items like milk, tea, coffee, cereals etc (sorry, no alcohol).
Ideally we need 7 days notice of this but you are welcome to call us if it is shorter notice and we will help where we can.

Environmental Impact
Here at Mollans we take our environment very much at the forefront of what we do.
There are lots of initiatives we have taken from reducing food miles to using recyclable containers where we can. Waste is reduced as much as is possible.
Dietary Requirements

Crunchy Biscuits
Almost all biscuits you can buy in the supermarkets here on the island seem to contain the dreaded palm oil. NONE of ours do and they are beautifully crunchy and tasty.
Bread

We make many things on an evening when the oven is off and the log fire is burning. We have an awesome selection of these amazing reflective hats which are ideal for being seen on dark nights.

Food for Thought
Welcome to Our Kitchen!
Welcome to Our Kitchen!
We don't like anything artificial and that goes for the baking too!
If you need to add preservatives, artificial colours, artificial sweeteners etc then it is unlikely to be something you will see leave our kitchen.
We also hate waste so often you will see "specials" offered for sale when something is in season - and that could be as simple as summer fruits to autumn flowers.
Waste not ...

We have all heard our Grannies telling us "waste not, want not" and in the shadow of these wise ladies, we continue with this excellent advice.
Why would you let good food go to waste in the first place? We make our own syrups and crystalised citrus fruit from excess good quality fruits rather than to throw them out. If you find yourself with a glut of fruit (ie rhubarb, apples etc) then let us know - we love to barter and are more than happy to swap for a lovely cake, preserve or freshly made bread.
