About Green’s (www.greenscakes.co.uk)
Celebrating over 100 years of baking, Green’s was founded in 1907 by Horace Green, a baker from Brighton who decided to blend together dry ingredients creating his special cake mixes. Since then production has continued and in 1998 Green's was bought by Kerry Foods Ltd.

Green’s is the country's number one mixes brand with strong retail distribution in every major supermarket in the UK. The recipe of success stems from their policy of keeping baking simple, fun and very tasty as well as being committed to maintaining and promoting the value of quality time together as a family through their brand and product. The extensive product range offers everything from mixes for kids' cakes to mixes for both large and small cakes and desserts that cater for all tastes and every occasion. Green's product range also includes licensed product from top children's brands including Tom & Jerry, Dora The Explorer, Thomas & Friends, Barbie, Scooby-Doo, In the Night Garden and Dennis the Menace.
