Another week rolls by and suddenly it's nearly Anzac Day. We didn't want this occasion to go uncelebrated so we're pleased to advise you can order Anzac biscuits , Anzac biscuit dough or flour if you'd prefer to make your own, online through our Loaf shop. 
The pre-formed Anzac biscuit dough gives you the best of both worlds. No mess to clean up and fresh biscuits straight from the oven whenever you want them. Plus we're donating $2 per pack of dough to the RSA from now until Anzac Day.

Sorry no rural or South Island deliveries for our cookie dough but you can order the pre-baked biscuits nationwide. All orders will be delivered from Monday, in the order that they were received, and the biscuit dough will be packed with freezer pads to keep them at their best.
