With Bonfire Night just around the corner, Birds Bakery is inviting East Midlands families to warm up with seasonal treats for one of Britain’s most iconic traditions. As families across the region plan their local festivities, Birds is offering a range of hot, hand-held savoury and sweet options perfect for enjoying at outdoor events or gatherings at home.
We all know the story of Guy Fawkes and his famous ‘Gunpowder Plot,’ but how many people know why we now ‘remember, remember the 5th of November’ as a night to spend with friends and family? After the plot failed in 1605, the date was fixed as a nationwide celebration of safety and unity.
Since then, Bonfire Night has transformed into an evening of fireworks, bonfires, and comforting seasonal snacks. Birds Bakery, a long-standing East Midlands institution, is proud to be part of these celebrations, offering snacks that capture the spirit of the night including flaky sausage rolls, rich steak slices, sausage cobs with trimmings and apple and blackcurrant crumbles.
Jamie Bird, Director of Strategy at Birds Bakery, said: “Bonfire Night is all about wrapping up warm and gathering at local events with friends and family. At Birds, we’re big on tradition and family values, so we’re excited to be part of the festivities with our comforting range of fresh-baked treats. Our talented bakers and butchers put great care into every product, blending our own special spices and signature puff pastry to make sure every bite is as warm and satisfying as the last.
“With stores open into the early evening, it’s easy to pop in and pick up something to keep you warm on the inside as you enjoy the outdoor celebrations.”
For those planning to attend events like the Derbyshire County Cricket Club Fireworks Display, Abbey Park Bonfire, and the Long Eaton Starry Skies Spectacular, Birds Bakery offers the perfect treats to take along and share with loved ones.
Birds Bakery has 61 stores across the East Midlands. If you’re choosing to host your own firework night, many Birds products can also be ordered online and delivered to customers’ homes using the Birds By Post service.
