Handcrafted Cottage Bakery

Gloria Waring’s journey into the world of cottage baking began not in a commercial kitchen, but in the quiet, flour-dusted sanctuary of her own home. Seeking solace through the tactile work of kneading dough and the rhythmic patience of slow fermentation, she rediscovered a profound connection to traditional heritage. What started as a healing personal practice soon blossomed into International Biscuits—a Cheltenham cottage bakery dedicated to sharing the warmth, honesty, and deep flavor of handcrafted, small-batch baked goods with our neighbors.
