Laura Baker, circa 1945 at Styles Farm
| For generations,
the Baker family has farmed at Styles Farm, on the edge of beautiful
heather moorland, among lush green valleys. In 1988, David and Sue Baker decided to diversify without losing the traditional ways of farming on the Exmoor Hills. Dairy ice cream and sheep's milk iced dessert promised the greatest potential outcome for the farm. |
Based on a recipe perfected by Sue in her farmhouse kitchen, business was booming by 1989. Starting with one "stop me & buy one" 1930s style tricycle, Styles ice-cream has developed with a fleet of fourteen tricycles and seven vans, as well as three parlours. Four trailers and two tent units allows coverage of a wide range of outdoor events. |
