Company details
Written by the company
George Romney Ltd is a fourth-generation confectionery business that you’ll find located on the edge of the Lake District National Park in the market town of Kendal. Mr Sam. T. Clarke, the great grandfather of the present Managing Director, Mr John Barron, started production of Romney’s Kendal Mint Cake in 1918 after being medically discharged during the First World War. Unable to obtain supplies of Kendal Mint Cake, he sought out and purchased an old recipe and started a confectionery manufacturing business. The company name ‘George Romney Ltd.’ was chosen as a result of Kendal’s association with the famous portrait painter, as well as the fact that the family home was on Romney Road. Romney's Kendal Mint Cake was immortalised in history on May 29th 1953 when it was carried on the first successful summit of Mount Everest by Sir Edmund Hillary and Sirdar Tenzing. All of our production now takes place on-site at Mintsfeet Industrial Estate, Kendal, where we have been since 1969. We now employ 16 members of full and part-time staff, who collectively produce over 100 tonnes of Romney’s Kendal Mint Cake a year. We also produce a large range of fudge, gift hampers, and our very own Old Fashioned Treacle Toffee — that’s still being made to an original family recipe.

Easy ordering process
Easy ordering process. Delivered on time and fantastic product. I usually wait until I go to lake district to buy Kendal Mint cake but after getting addicted last year I thought I would bring a little bit of the lake district to home.

Handy for an emergency .
The pocket tin is ideal for the glove compartment ,or on a train,in case of a breakdown. The refills are just enough to keep me going till I get home and take up little room.

Always nice to get a fresh delivery!
Always nice to get a fresh delivery of Kendal Mint Cake. My go-to choice of energy bar for walking, running, cycling, and just snacking :-)
Expensive for what it is though.

First discovered mint cake on holiday…
First discovered mint cake on holiday in the Lakes. I'd never had it before and fell in love with it. Bought loads of slabs as gifts. Did this every time we went. Due to health reasons, we haven't been for a few years, so being able to buy online is great. Your individually wrapped, chocolate coated ones are a wonderful gift to give and I buy these a lot. They always come well packaged and on time. Thank you.
