Homepride collection

I used to buy only Homepride flour, but these days any flour will do. However, I have acquired a small collection of Homepride memorabilia over the years. It was of course baking day with Monty today, so we made these small cakes and decorated them with smarties like the ones in the picture.

Gorgeous!! Such characters these Homepride figures etc. When I first knew Allan he had a shirt with Mr Homepride figure all over it!!!😂 It was quite cool at the time!!
Like you I always used Homepride....graded grains make finer flour.... but I too use different varieties. 😊

Fred the Flour-grader ! Could have been me, I applied for a job as a production manager there after leaving college. Decided it wasn't for me when a pevious year's graduate told us that he enjoyed his job so much he didn't take all his holidays. Think wearing that bowler hat had affected his brain.

Monty will be good enough to enter Bake Off when he gets older or even Masterchef ! Homepride…still a name to remember! Love all your memorabilia!

Such a lovely shot, wonderful that Monty likes to bake with you. The brand is unknown to me 😊

[Carole Sandford]

Lovely that he likes to bake. My mother-in-law used to have a Homepride man, called Fred I believe.

What a great collection. I used to love the ads of the Homepride flour graders. Graded grains make finer flour

[Phil Howcroft]

nice one Judith , I think we may have seen these before on your 365 :)

[Judith Johnson]

@phil_howcroft You're right Phil, but I think only the brass weights, not the other things

A lovely image I still have the baking flour grader set but it is stashed way back in a cupboard I can no longer reach.
