Crystallised Fruit

For Baking, Snacking & Gifting

Glacé Cherries, Crystallised Ginger, Mixed Peel & More

Sweet, vibrant, and packed with flavour – our crystallised fruit collection brings a touch of natural indulgence to your kitchen cupboard. Whether you're baking a traditional fruitcake, decorating a festive pudding, or simply looking for a nostalgic nibble, our selection of high-quality crystallised and glacé fruits delivers.

What Is Crystallised Fruit?

Crystallised fruit – also known as candied or glacé fruit – is made by slowly simmering fresh fruit in sugar syrup until the natural moisture is replaced with sweetness. The result is a rich, chewy, and aromatic treat that retains the essence of the original fruit while offering a long shelf life and a multitude of uses.

Our crystallised fruits are ideal for:

Traditional baking: Christmas cakes, hot cross buns, Simnel cake, and stollen
Decoration: Add colour and flair to cupcakes, biscuits, and desserts
Snacking: Especially crystallised ginger, loved for its warming, spicy-sweet kick
Gifting: Use in hampers or homemade treats for a personal, old-fashioned touch

What’s in Our Crystallised Fruit Collection?

Crystallised Ginger
Bold, spicy, and a little bit addictive. Our crystallised ginger is a favourite among bakers and snackers alike. Perfect chopped into fruitcakes, dipped in dark chocolate, or eaten straight from the packet when you need a zingy pick-me-up.

Organic Crystallised Ginger
All the goodness of our regular ginger – but organically grown and processed with minimal intervention. A purer way to enjoy this fiery root, ideal for anyone following an organic lifestyle or reducing their exposure to conventional additives.

Glacé Cherries
Classic, bright red glacé cherries – the star of many a bakewell tart or festive centrepiece. We stock high-quality glacé cherries with a beautiful sheen and rich cherry flavour. Not just for decoration, they’re delicious in their own right.

Mixed Chopped Peel
A must-have for seasonal baking. Our mixed peel combines finely chopped orange and lemon peel to create a fragrant, zesty mix that adds depth and texture to fruitcakes, hot cross buns, and marmalade-style desserts.

Crystallised Pineapple
Tropical sweetness with a golden glow. Crystallised pineapple adds juicy texture and flavour to cakes, scones, and homemade trail mixes. Its tangy brightness works particularly well alongside richer fruits like dates or figs.

Crystallised Papaya
A lesser-known gem with a naturally soft chew and delicate tropical flavour. Crystallised papaya is excellent in muesli mixes, baking recipes, or simply enjoyed as a colourful snack.
