Customer Experiences
Alistair Kensington I’ve been a loyal Crawford’s enthusiast for over thirty years, and their Custard Creams remain the undisputed gold standard of my afternoon tea ritual. The intricate embossed design on the biscuit isn’t just beautiful—it holds that perfect amount of tea when you dunk it, and the cream filling has a consistency that modern competitors simply cannot replicate. Opening a fresh packet takes me straight back to my childhood summers in the Cotswolds; there is a genuine sense of history and craftsmanship in the snap of every biscuit.
Beatrice Sterling There is something remarkably comforting about the Crawford’s Garibaldi—or the ‘squashed fly biscuit’ as we affectionately called them growing up—that provides the perfect light snack without being overly sugary. I recently served a selection of their Cream Crackers at a dinner party alongside some aged cheddar and red onion marmalade, and my guests were genuinely impressed by the light, flaky texture that didn’t crumble under the weight of the cheese. It is rare to find a brand that manages to maintain such high production standards across both their sweet and savoury ranges for such a long time.
Julian Thorne After moving abroad, the one thing I missed most from home was the fiery kick of a Crawford’s Ginger Nut, so finding a reliable importer was an absolute game-changer for my pantry. These aren’t your average soft cookies; they have a formidable, glass-like snap and a deep ginger warmth that lingers beautifully, making them the ideal palate cleanser after a heavy meal. I recently shared a pack of Rich Shorties with my colleagues during a meeting, and even those unfamiliar with British biscuits were won over by the golden, buttery finish and the subtle hint of salt.
