1. Ingredient Mastery:
The journey begins with selecting high-quality ingredients - sugar, glucose syrup, and peppermint oil. These ingredients are the heart of Kendal Mint Cake, ensuring an authentic taste and energizing properties.
2. The Melting Pot:
The sugar and glucose syrup are gently melted together in large copper pans, under controlled temperatures, to form a clear solution.
Interesting fact: The temperature required to boil the mixture varies day to day and throughout the seasons. This is due to the varying temperatures and pressures of the surrounding environment.
3. A Minty Essence:
Once the desired consistency is achieved, peppermint oil is added to the mixture, infusing the blend with its distinctive minty essence.
We use a top-secret blend of Peppermint Oils from around the world to achieve our minty goodness.
4. Moulding Perfection:
The mixture is then poured into moulds by hand and allowed to cool, solidifying into the iconic rectangular bars of Kendal Mint Cake we all love.
5. Quality Assurance:
Each bar undergoes rigorous quality checks to ensure it meets the high standards of taste, texture, and purity before it reaches your hands.
