Easter is soon approaching, and with balancing work with the school holidays and family get-togethers, there can be a lot to prepare for. With the first signs of spring having already made an appearance, we’re hoping for warmer days, easter egg hunts in the gardens, and the start of al fresco dining over the bank holiday weekend.
So get ready for Easter and stock up on store cupboard essentials… You may want to order some treats for the break too!
School break
If you’ve got little ones in the house over the Easter school break, you may want to stock up on essentials to keep them fed! It’s always surprising how quickly food seems to disappear from the cupboards when there’s lots of hungry bellies in the house!
Bread, milk and eggs are always top of our list when we think about store cupboard essentials. But we can also deliver fresh fruit boxes to your door too, to balance out all the Easter eggs! Our fruit juices are great to keep the kids hydrated, especially as we begin to see slightly warmer days.
Family get-togethers
Cooking for friends or family on Easter Sunday? A traditional lamb roast may well be on the menu and our vegetable boxes can provide all the veg you need to complete the meal. You can also order extra potatoes from us if you’re expecting quite a few guests and need a little bit more!
Or if you fancy giving yourself a bit of time to enjoy the Easter break too, our scrumptious readily prepared meals and sides by Fieldgoods can take the pressure off and let you relax. From Chicken and Leek Pie, Lamb and Apricot Tagine, to Beef Bourguignon, there’s something for every palate! We also stock a range of vegetarian options too, such as the Aubergine Parmigiana, which we love to accompany with a fresh salad from our salad boxes. You can complete the meal with one of their heavenly desserts… Sticky Toffee Pudding or Melt in the middle Chocolate Brownie, you’ll find them hard to resist!
Hot cross buns and other sweet treats
What’s Easter without a hot cross bun? We work with Barkers Bakery to provide you with freshly made buns, perfect for breakfast on Easter weekend or even as an accompaniment to a cup of tea. Why not try the Suffolk Gold Blend Tea Bags for a taste of a local brew! For those who are more coffee drinkers, we stock a variety of blends too.
If you’re looking for things to do over the break, baking can be a lovely way to keep kids entertained, and our free-range eggs and organic milk can help to make delicious tasting cakes! Or if you want to enjoy the treat without the work, you can order freshly baked cakes from Barkers Bakery too.
So indulge this Easter with good quality, local food, and celebrate a much deserved break and a start to another wonderful spring. You can browse through our full range of products here.
