Modens Bakery is an award winning artisan bakery based in the heart of the beautiful Lincolnshire Wolds.
The bakery has been producing a wide range of cakes, breads and pastries since 1936, and we are renowned for making our gourmet local delicacy, Modens Lincolnshire Plum Bread. A moist tasty fruit loaf, bursting with sultanas, raisins and a hint of spice – and rather quirkily – no plums! The name originates from the old local term for drying fruit, or ‘plumming’ fruit, and the loaves have been baked for generations as a delicious snack to sustain farmers as they work the land. We still use our original 1936 recipe and have changed very little. Traditionally plum bread is served with a chunk of local mature cheese on top, and our heritage loaf makes a great addition to a cheese board as a tasty alternative to crackers.
Today our bakery supplies Modens Lincolnshire Plum Bread throughout the county and beyond, along with a growing range of cakes and artisan breads.
We’re exceptionally proud of our heritage and artisanal methods of baking – and of course we were delighted to be asked to sponsor the Tiptree World Bread Awards for 2016.
