What is bean all about?

Bean was born from a family business, Rose Cottage Fudge, based in Lyme Regis, Dorset. The company produces old-fashioned crumbly fudge by hand and sells it in their famous shop and tea rooms, The Fudge Kitchen.

From this, sprang another part of the family business, The Burnt Sugar Sweet Co. which has developed into a highly successful venture, producing not only fudge but also a wide range of high quality hand made sweets such as toffee, tablet and coconut ice. Their products are sold around the country and can be found at Hampton Court, The Tower of London, Kensington Palace and in various delicatessens and sweet shops.

Bean was created to continue the family tradition and in addition to the crumbly fudge and old-fashioned sweets, hand made chocolates from around Britain have been added to the range. In line with our own personal ideals, we source as many fairly traded and organic products as possible.

At our shop in Tunbridge Wells we have taken traditional products and present them for the 21st century using bright, modern packaging with the shop design offering a warm yet stylish welcome.
