FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is your delivery radius?
Delivery is to Hastings and St Leonards. If you are from further afield, you are welcome to collect (address is given at point of order). Find more info about delivery and collection here.
Do you offer wholesale?
Yes. If you're a customer, you can find babka on Fridays at Folks, DickieBird Home store (Battle), Dark Circles, the Grumpy Cook on Fridays and at Stooge Coffee on Saturdays.
If you're a business owner, please get in touch via my contact form as I have space to expand my wholesale offering and have capacity for nationwide delivery too.
Where can I find allergy info?
You can find allergen information about a specific product in the MENU section and again at the point of ordering. Your order will come with a label detailing full ingredients and allergen information. If you want to find out more about my allergen policy, please see here.
Do you offer vegan?
Yes! I offer vegan alternatives to most of my babka flavours. Please see the current menu for more details. Please note that although I offer vegan and am careful to keep vegan orders separate, I do bake in a kitchen where dairy and eggs are also handled.
How long does babka keep for?
Babka is baked fresh on the day of delivery and is good for up to 5 days. Store your babka in clingfilm at room temperature (not in the fridge unless specified). You can refresh babka loaves or buns by heating in a warm oven for 10 -15 minutes wrapped in foil. You can also freeze babka (in loaves or slices) for up to 3 months. Defrost overnight at room temperature and warm before eating. You will receive storage instructions on the label attached to your order.
Are you registered with the local authority?
Yes, Small Batch Babka is fully registered as a business with Hastings Borough Council and has received a 5* food hygiene rating.
When are you open at The Yard?
I am open at The Yard alternate Fridays and Saturdays (and always on the last Saturday of the month) where you can buy babka buns, loaves and other treats directly from me. Stay up to date by following me on social media and checking out my Yard schedule which is kept updated. I am also always available for pre-ordered collections on Thursdays and Fridays - see my current menu here.
