More about Dorset:

Our philosophy…

We make unadulterated breakfast pleasure, that’s tasty, real and in good measure.  We believe that life is too short to settle for second best and that simple, honest pleasures are often the most rewarding – like a good walk on a sunny day, the smell of freshly cut grass or sharing a joke with an old friend. Simple, but then the best things in life usually are.

How we make things…

We visit our suppliers to make sure we are using the best possible ingredients. We don’t just throw our ingredients together, we balance and blend them carefully using our knowledge of what tastes delicious.  We don’t scrimp, we make sure our recipes are stuffed full of fruit, nuts and seeds. We don’t forget the flakes—they get as much attention as the fruits.

The result is a really tasty breakfast that’s rich in whole grains, provides a good source of fibre and contains no added preservatives.

Where we come from…

We’re from Poundbury, the English village created by the vision of HRH Prince Charles. Poundbury is in the ancient and beautiful county of Dorset, where the gentle rolling hills and winding country lanes lead to a spectacular coastline on the English Channel. Dorset is renowned for its agriculture and beautiful countryside and newly designated World Heritage status for the stunning Jurassic coastline. We are located just seven miles from the coast in a superb new factory in Poundbury village, just outside the historic county town of Dorchester in Dorset.

Where we work…

The Dorset Cereals factory was designed by a local architect but with considerable input by Leon Krier, an international champion of traditional urban design appointed by the Prince of Wales for his Poundbury project. The factory exterior is of stunning design while the interior has been designed specifically as a cereal factory. It’s fitted out to the highest food processing standards using the best food grade materials and state of the art machinery.

Committed to quality…

Quality is paramount at Dorset Cereals and starts with our suppliers. We provide each of our carefully selected suppliers with a strict and detailed quality specification for each ingredient covering size, texture, colour, moisture content, microbiological analysis, packaging type and transport requirements.

    My mother is a hard-working, loving person who does sooo much for everyone, this basket would be a nice gift for her.

  5. Erin says:

    My mother deserves this basket because her whole life she has been taking her of my brother and I. Now that I am a mom I appreciate what she did and does even more.

  6. Vanessa says:

    My mother diserves this because she is an amazing mom does everything she can for us and is going through se really rough times
    Separating with her husband of 20 years and winning something would put a smile on her face

  7. Lisa says:

    She is selfless, not only to the family, but everyone around us. She gives the best, yet asks nothing for return. She is a role model. She is my mother, and she loves cereal!

  8. Judy says:

    My mother is a morning cereal freak. This is her box.

  9. Kevin says:

  10. Candice says:

    …my mom is my doctor, lawyer, teacher and preacher .. She deserves a raise !!

  11. Ashley says:

    My mom is a huge cereal person! She would absolutely love to try a new brand.

  12. Melissa says:

    My mother deserves this basket because she has been trying to get healthy and battle her food addictions for a very long time, starting her day with a healthy breakfast will really help her to achieve her goals! ..and make her RD-to-be daughter feel good about her breakfast choice 🙂

  13. Cindy Smith says:

    My mom is a breast cancer survivor and has been taking good care of herself (eating healthy and exercising) for the last year. It ‘s great to see her putting herself first for change so I would love to reward her with this lovely basket.

  14. Diana says:

    My future mom-in-law (my own mom lives far away) is a fantastic, vibrant, and active woman and deserves this basket because she just retired this year after a lifetime of teaching and has embarked on a healthy and wholesome second childhood filled with hiking, camping and travel!

  15. Maria Wells says:

    My Mother deserves the basket because she has been working hard to live a healthier life – more exercise – watching what she eats – more grains.

  16. Linda says:

    My mother has single handedly raised me and my younger siblings. She is our father when we needed protection from bullies, mother when we need someone to comfort us, and friend when we want to confide in someone.

    We aren’t the best behaved human beings on earth but my mother has been so patient and has been guiding us, mentoring us, and raising us every single day. She deserves this basket so that she can spend Mother’s Day with something gourmet and nice(which me and my siblings can’t afford for her).

    Thank you for considering.

  17. Amy M says:

    My mother deserves this basket as she is always meeting the needs of others and placing their needs ahead of hers. She deserves a break and a treat! I’m sure she would enjoy Dorset cereal especially as she is very conscious of what she eats.
