With a rich heritage of sweet making tradition, Wilkinson's of Pontefract takes you back to times gone by.

Wilkinson’s Mint Imperials and Pontefract Cakes have been made at our Pontefract site since the late 1800′s. Up until the 1960′s all Pontefract Cakes were hand made and hand stamped where an experienced stamper could turn out an impressive 30,000 Pontefract Cakes a day!! Today you can enjoy our Wilkinsons confectionery knowing that they have been made with recipes passed from generation to generation to give you an authentic traditional confectionery experience.
