Start with Fresh Artisan Bread

Every great picnic begins with fantastic bread. At Sliced, our artisan loaves are baked with care using quality ingredients, giving you the perfect base for sandwiches, sharing platters and picnic boards. From crusty sourdough baguettes to traditional country loaves, fresh bread brings a touch of bakery-fresh goodness to every outdoor feast.

Pair your bread with your favourite fillings or simply enjoy it alongside cheese, charcuterie and a generous spoonful of Ludlow Jam for a classic countryside combination.

Artisan Sandwiches Made Fresh

If you’d rather leave the sandwich-making to us, our freshly prepared artisan sandwiches are ideal for picnics on the go. Packed with flavour and made using quality ingredients, they’re easy to transport and even easier to enjoy while taking in the stunning Cotswold scenery.

Whether you’re stopping by before a walk around Broadway, heading to Hidcote Gardens or planning a lazy afternoon by the river, a freshly made sandwich is always a picnic essential.

Add Some Crunch with Torres Crisps

No picnic basket is complete without crisps, and Torres Crisps are a firm favourite. Known for their premium ingredients and irresistible crunch, they add the perfect savoury accompaniment to sandwiches and salads. Their gourmet flavours elevate any picnic spread, making them an easy way to add a little extra indulgence to your outdoor dining experience.

Save Room for Cakes, Bakes & Pastries

At Sliced Cake Kitchen & Bakery, we believe the best picnics always end with cake. Our bakery is filled with handmade treats, from traybakes and brownies to seasonal tarts, pastries and cakes. Everything is baked fresh and designed to be enjoyed wherever the day takes you.

Why not include: freshly baked croissants and cruffins, homemade traybakes, artisan pastries and a selection of cake slices to share. Our range changes regularly, giving you plenty of reasons to return and discover something new.

Don’t Forget the Drinks

A great picnic deserves great refreshments. Pick up a selection of cold drinks to keep everyone refreshed throughout the day. Whether you prefer sparkling refreshments, fruit juices or soft drinks, having chilled drinks ready to enjoy can make all the difference on a warm Cotswold afternoon.
