“Just like Mammy made! I remember as a child Mammy always had a loaf in a tin just in case of visitors.”
Chocolate and Guinness Cake
A magnificent Irish cake which keeps for weeks, deep black colour with a hint of stout bitterness set off by the creaminess of our topping perfect with a cup of tea or half pint of Guinness.
Stem Ginger Cake
A store cupboard must have, delicious light ginger cake perfect with an afternoon cup of tea or to take in your lunch or picnic box.
Lemon Drizzle Cake
A beautiful, moist sponge made with lemon zest and lime juice and decorated with lemon glacé icing.
Carrot and Walnut Cake
A light, fluffy sponge kept lovely and moist by the shredded carrot topped with a tangy cream cheese topping
Irish Tea Brack Cake
The word brack, in Irish “breac”, means speckled and refers to the fruit used in the dough. A very popular standby in most Irish homes. This particular recipe is a cake rather than bread in which the fruit has been soaked in Irish tea and Irish Whiskey overnight. Delicious!
Chocolate Brownies
An optional extra to top up your frozen food box. Breda’s been making brownies from the beginning and is one of our most popular cakes in the Pantry. You can portion and eat it simply from the cake tray or upgrade to a dessert by serving warm with fresh raspberries and pouring cream or chocolate sauce or both!
What makes Breda Murphy’s ready meals special?
Made to Breda’s traditional recipes that she’s spent decades perfecting, our meals are truly a taste of restaurant quality at home.
We create them all by hand in small batches in our Ribble Valley kitchen, flash-freeze them for freshness, and lovingly pack into a special, lined delivery box, to ensure you can enjoy the beautiful flavours at home.
Where do you deliver to?
Thanks to our great partner couriers, we are able to deliver our prepared meals almost anywhere in the UK. Your order will arrive frozen, in a fully insulated box (lined with sheep’s wool) that we have designed with sustainability in mind.
How many people are the ready meals suitable for?
Whether you’re looking to feed one person, two people, or the entire family, we’ve got a box to suit you.
Within the Singles Box, you will find three single-portion meals, along with three single-portion desserts, and a loaf cake to top it off.
Inside the Doubles Box, you will find four double-portion meals, two double-portion desserts, and the signature loaf cake of your choosing.
There is also a Mixed Box available. This would be best suited for a family or catering for many. It includes three single-portion meals, three double-portion meals, two single-portion desserts, two double-portion desserts, and of course a loaf cake too.
Craving more? You can add on a tray of chocolatey gooey brownies to each of the boxes.

Other Frequently Asked Questions
Is Breda doing the cooking?
The short answer is yes, she is! Breda trained and later taught with Darina Allen at Ballymaloe Cookery School in Cork, Ireland. With her vast background in catering and restaurants she’s turned her hand to preparing excellent, nutritious, restaurant quality dishes ready to be delivered to your home.
How are the meals made?
Our meals are all handmade in our kitchen following Breda’s recipes by Breda and her team of trained chefs using the finest ingredients. Once the recipes are cooked we flash freeze the meals to naturally preserve and lock in all the flavour and nutrients.
Is there vegan-friendly options?
Breda currently offers one vegan friendly dish: Chickpea, Tomato & Potato Curry. We hope to be able to include more vegan options as our range grows.
Do you cater to different dietary requirements/allergies?
With the size of our current menu, were are unable to alter the dishes to cater for all dietary requirements. However, a full list of all ingredients for each dish can be found on each product.
Do you use preservatives in your dishes?
No. All Breda’s dishes use the freshest, local produce wherever available. So by purchasing our prepared meals for delivery, you are not only supporting a British restaurant, but British farmers too.
How long will each dish last in the freezer?
All our dishes last over three months in the freezer, giving you extra flexibility and reducing any unnecessary food waste.
Where do you source your ingredients?
We take pride in sourcing the high quality ingredients from our network of farmers, fisheries and merchants. We work with many local family-run businesses who have supplied and supported us over the years.
How many people do the meals feed?
Breda has designed the meals in both single and double sizes, for 1 or 2 people and some of our desserts feed 2-3 people. We don’t add any side orders or vegetables to our dishes as our customers prefer to add their own.
Where can I see the ingredients / nutritional info?
Our ingredients and nutritional information is listed on each meal – you will also find full details of all our meals here.
