ABOUT 'FITZBILLIES'
Fitzbillies is a craft baker and confectioner, based at 52 Trumpington
Street, Cambridge CB2 1RG, England. Founded in 1922 by the Mason brothers, it is
famous for its Chelsea buns, fruit cakes, and sponges. Subsequent owners have
safeguarded the secret recipes, particularly that for Chelsea buns. These can
reasonably claim to be the stickiest and most delicious in the world.
The Fitzbillies website is organised into the following main sections:
Accolades, Chelsea Buns, Hampers, Cakes, Wedding Cakes, Seasonal Items, Ordering
& Mailing List, Students, and Restaurant & Shop.
The original Fitzbillies Chelsea Bun has been its most popular product for
eighty years. It is rich, spicy, and syrupy and travels well. Chelsea Buns are
available by mail order in boxes of four, eight or twelve buns. Chelsea Buns can
be frozen on arrival for up to three months. Fitzbillies suggest that for a
truly wicked and unusual treat their Chelsea Buns should be gently warmed and
served with a dollop of ice cream.
