About
Us
Tuesday’s
Fine Confectionery is based in the small North Shropshire
town of Market Drayton, and was opened in
2004 by its owner Nicola Tuesday. Since the shop opened
it has enjoyed enormous success with both the confectionery
and the wedding and celebration cakes. Tuesday’s
Right at Your Door
Tuesday’s
chocolates, with their distinctive hand decorated packaging,
have travelled
as far as Portugal, New
Zealand, America and Albania where they were received so
well that it left people wanting more. This very quickly
led to the need for an Internet site and the option to have
chocolates and confectionery sent by post.
The
Tuesday’s Experience
The shop itself has a clean, spacious continental feel to
it, and with the air conditioned environment, the smell of
chocolate is overwhelming once inside. The chocolate counter
is the star of the show boasting up to 40 chocolates on display
at any one time, usually with many more tucked away under
the counter. The rest of the shop is packed with every kind
of top quality chocolate and confectionery that you could
imagine ready to either take away as a treat for you or to
be beautifully gift wrapped in one of our many exquisite
hand decorated boxes.
You
will also find some good old fashioned favourites that
tend to fade away from the shop shelves these days, such
as coconut ice, fudge ice, golden honeycombe and soft marshmallow
aswell as the likes of fruit fondant creams, maple brazils
and sugar mice.
Tuesday’s sugar free range
is also becoming increasingly popular. All flavoured with
maltitol, the chocolates,
marzipan,
chocolate brazils and traditional sweets, to mention just
a few, all taste just like the real thing and the range is
forever growing.
Staying
with delicious, but moving on from chocolate, at Tuesday’s you will find a breathtaking choice of wedding
and celebration cakes, both on show around the shop and in
our comprehensive portfolio. All of the cakes are baked and
decorated to each and every individual order. There’s
a choice of moist Madeira cake filled with vanilla fudge
cream and delicious fruit jam (optional), rich dark chocolate
fudge cake or traditional, moist, soaked fruit cake, all
of which are decorated to the highest standard. All of out
character and floral decorations are made by hand in sugar
to a design and colour of your choice and our novelty cakes
really spark the imagination for something completely different.
Seasonal
specialities
Easter is a special time at Tuesday’s
when the shop is filled to the brim with exquisite chocolate
novelties
and exclusive hand decorated Belgian chocolate Easter eggs
that are filled with goodies just like they used to be, and
have free inscriptions professionally piped.
Christmas takes on a different
atmosphere again with luscious and indulgent gifts for
everyone exclusive to Tuesday’s
and gift wrapped for the ultimate luxury feel. This time
of year also brings seasonal goodies for the Christmas period
that we don’t get to see all year round such as fabulous
German gingerbread houses and Hansel and Gretel scenes made
from cornflake crispies.
The Perfect Treat in the Summer Heat
So that only leaves the summer.
During May to October, Tuesday’s
transform part of the shop into an Italian ice cream bar
where you can be spoiled with a choice of 14 different luxury
Italian ice creams and sorbet served in Antionelli’s
specialist waffle cones and topped to the max with every
topping, sauce and extra that you could imagine. With so
much to choose from, you can make the ‘massiccio’ of
ice creams, and then some!
