In these days of credit crunch, doom and gloom and hazerdous winters it's good to hear some positive news.

As the financial year draws to an end for most people it is a time to reflect on the previous year's business and how to plan ahead for the next year.

Here at Cobbs, we bake a delicious range of home-made cakes for an ever growing clientele of retail outlets but also supply our own chain of eight 'Cobbs Coffee Houses' where we also offer our customers some of the finest coffee in the UK.

Our coffee supplier is Brodie's of Edinburgh and at at meeting with them earlier this week they told us that last year we sold 1.5 tons of coffee throughout out outlets. This equates to 250,000 cups!

This news delighted both director of Cobbs, Fraser Campbell and Neil Archer from Brodies. The icing on the cake for Cobbs is the fact that the majority of these cups of coffee would be accompanied by either a piece of home-made cake, traybake or shortbread from our own bakery here in the village of Drumnadrochit on the shores of Loch Ness.
Fraser said 'this is an astonishing amount of coffee and cakes but it is extremely good news as it sustains our workforce in these difficult economical times'.

All good stuff!
