Calder's Kitchen was formed in May 2015 by husband and wife Andrew and Anne-Marie Calder. We started making Piccalilli in the family kitchen after we discovered Andrew's late Granddad Charlie's favourite family recipe.
Four years on we now supply over 60 premium small to medium size shops, cafés, gastropubs and restaurants. We love working with independent food businesses and people who are equally passionate about food.
Made following Grandad Charlie's original recipe, our traditional classic piccalilli – Winner of a Great Taste award - strikes the perfect balance of sweetness, fresh pickle and crunchy vegetables. A trip down memory lane for the 'real piccalilli' enthusiast! Enjoy all year around with salads, potatoes, meats, cheese or fish.
Classic Piccalilli but with a sweet chilli glow. Our Chillililli is a slow burner, providing a gentle warm sensation, but subtle enough to enjoy in your favourite sandwich or with burgers, pies, meats and cheeses.
Traditional Piccalilli meets delicious Indian spices for a mouth-watering flavour. Enough heat to make your taste buds tingle before leaving an enjoyable warm glow, Sillylilli will add a brand new depth of flavour to your favourite meal or savoury snack. Fabulous with curries or chilli dishes, but equally good in a casserole (try our Calder's Kitchen Corned Beef Hash recipe) and perfectly at home on a slice of cheese on toast. A unique product to Calder's Kitchen Ltd.
Working with Calder’s Kitchen
Family values are at the heart of everything we do. We take pride in providing quality, fresh and unique flavours that you and your customers will love. We are committed to the highest level of customer service.
In 2017 we teamed up with another family business, Raydale Preserves based in the heart of the Yorkshire dales. This has allowed us to scale our business whilst also ensuring the highest standards of food safety (SALSA accreditation) and quality. We also work closely with our North Yorkshire Council and their Primary Authority team, ensuring you can have complete confidence that our labelling, nutritional and allergen advice is fully compliant.
In March 2019, we’re going to be working with an exciting new distribution partner Route2 Supply (information attached). Route2 formed in response to feedback from independent food businesses like ours and yours. For many of us current wholesale and other distribution models do not always meet the requirements of our business. They can be impersonal and/or expensive.
We’re impressed with this solution because it allows us as to maintain a direct relationship with you, our customer, and that’s really important to us. It avoids us having to impose minimum orders and additional shipping costs. With Route2, you place one order (minimum 6 cases in total) made up from a range of outstanding products made by specialist artisan food producers like us. Everything appears on one invoice with goods delivered together, helping us all save time and money on shipping and admin.
