Studio Bakery

Studio Bakery is proudly based in the heart of Lancashire, where a love of good food, local ingredients and traditional baking come together. Founded in 2017 by Allison Metcalf, the bakery began in a small garden studio before quickly outgrowing its space and moving to The Cow Shed. Today, the team bake from their Clitheroe site, with The Cow Shed still supporting their work behind the scenes.

With over 25 years of experience in the food industry, Allison leads a team of more than thirty, including her mother who still works three days a week. Everything is made in small batches, with most processes carried out by hand. The result is a wide range of

cakes, biscuits and traybakes that celebrate bold flavours, British butter, free-range eggs and carefully sourced local produce.

The bakery’s commitment goes far beyond the kitchen. Sustainability is part of everything they do, from reclaimed timber and LED lighting in their buildings to caring for an orchard of 145 fruit trees and two wildflower meadows. One meadow even has public footpaths, offering the community a place to enjoy a changing sea of colour throughout the seasons.

Their relationship with Booths began in 2017 with the launch of five lines, including the now-favourite Rocky Road Mini Bites, and has since grown to more than forty products. Standouts include Booths Bites, Booths Loaf Cakes and their Food to Order celebration cakes.

What truly sets Studio Bakery apart is the people. Their dedication to craft, their care for the countryside and their belief in doing things properly give everything they make a special touch. Whether it’s a cake for sharing or a simple treat with a brew, there is care in every crumb.
