“May I take this opportunity to congratulate you on your great range of bread and cake mixes, especially the PREMIUM WHITE MIX. When we were kids, My mother used to make all our bread by hand, she was kept very busy , because the bread barely got time to cool before it was eagerly consumed by my sister, my Dad and myself. My sister and I have attempted, on many many occasions and quite independently of each other, to re-create the same tasting bread. Some of the results were too dreadful to eat, they would have been better suited for use as WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION! however, some WERE edible, but none of them came close enough to the wonderful taste of our mothers bread. Then a couple of years ago, I purchased a bread making machine, and the sales assistant suggested I try WRIGHTS PREMIUM WHITE mix, saying (In her words) its dead easy! So I did, and I can tell you that, its as if our mother had come back to bake for us! I was so pleased with the results, that I went out and bought my sister a bread making machine, and a supply of WRIGHTS PREMIUM WHITE mix to get her going. I only see my children at weekends now, but the first thing they say when they walk through the door is ARE WE MAKING BREAD, DAD!!. My sister is equally thrilled with it, and regularly thanks me, which is nice, but the thanks should really go to you. So, thank you WRIGHTS, thank you very much.”

The more 'luxurious' the fruit, the better the buns. Why not try dried fruits from the caribbean with pineapple, candied banana, flaked coconut and dried mango for a change.
