A magical treat awaits
There’s no denying it: autumn is peeking around the corner, heralding a more crisp and colourful world. With senses sharpened, it’s time to relish rich flavours and tantalising aromas, or to indulge yourself with treats only found at this time of year. So dig out your favourite jumper and prepare to dive into our leaf-pile of magical treats.
Delivered to your door
Our popular autumn specialities are back, making it the perfect time to enjoy your Bettys favourites at home. Put the kettle on and invite friends round for teatime with our Marzipan & Sponge Apples and Owl Cupcake Brownies. Then snuggle down for a cosy night in with a mug of our Hot Chocolate and a gloriously sticky slice of Yorkshire Parkin. Send a celebration gift box filled with seasonal treats to a loved one, or throw an autumn-themed do with our Fondant Fancy Party Cake.
Special events
As we turn the page from summer to autumn, our Café Tea Rooms will have a literary flavour. Join bestselling York-born author Kate Atkinson for afternoon tea followed by a reading, Q&A and book signing on 4th October at Bettys York (booking details here). Or pull up a pew to discover the quirky and humorous life of a local vicar with David Wilbourne at Bettys Ilkley on 11th October (booking details here).
Flavours of the season
Banish that tired bottle of ketchup to the back of the fridge: our preserves and chutneys are packed with the tastiest combinations of sweet and tangy fruits, aromatic spices and a splash or two of something extra.
Ampleforth Beer Fruit Chutney is great for adding to hearty sandwiches, while we reckon that a spoonful of our Cherry & Amaretto Preserve is what any bowl of porridge needs on a chilly morning. We also have some rather dashing gift sets, each containing a trio of our tastiest preserves or chutneys.
Chocolate Heaven
Finally, as the night's draw in, curl up by the lamplight with some indulgent luxury chocolates. Choose from Hazelnut Pralines, Champagne Truffles, Salted Caramels, or our intensely delicious Cru Sauvage Truffles… if you can’t decide between them, our new Chocolate Tasting Box has them all.
