Hamblin Bread
Oxfordshire, Oxford - Bakery
The sign outside Kate and Hugo Hamblin’s neighbourhood-focused bakery is simple: Bread Baked Here Daily. And it is, along with carefully crafted cakes, biscuits, buns and cookies, with an array of deli items on sale too. Sourcing is of the utmost importance with only directly traded organic, stoneground flour baked into the custard and candied Seville cake, whole-fruit financiers and Swedish bun staples perfumed with cinnamon and cardamon. For something savoury, consider a slice of sourdough pizza made from Maris Widgeon and ‘population’ wheat, topped with Westcombe ricotta. A second location – Hamblin kiosk and snack bar – can be found in Oxford’s Covered Market.
