Custom Cakes
Birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, or a Tuesday that needs lifting. Made to order in our Leeds kitchen, decorated by hand, never a hint of dairy or egg.
Vegan cakes, baked goods and catering, made with organic ingredients — available to order online and through stockists across the city.
A small bakery with one rule
That Old Chestnut is a small, independent vegan bakery in Leeds. Every cake that leaves the kitchen is 100% free from animal products — and made with organic ingredients. Not because it's trendy. Because it's the way we like to bake.
No dairy, no eggs, ever. Just proper baking — soft sponges, rich frostings, things that taste like cake should — for people who happen to be vegan, and for people who simply want a good cake.
You can order direct from us online, or pick something up from one of our stockists across Leeds.
