Northern Brownies

Handmade Yorkshire brownies delivered across the UK

Northern Brownies is a small family business based in Leeds, run by a husband-and-wife team, dedicated to making brownies that are sold online and delivered by post. Its catalogue is organised into boxes of six, although it also offers eight-piece formats and larger packs for celebrations.

Production is made to order: each batch is baked fresh before dispatch, ensuring the product arrives in optimal condition of freshness and texture. The company delivers across the whole of the UK and describes its offering as especially chocolatey and gooey brownies.

Available varieties and formats

The house's most popular product is the mixed box, which brings together one of each of the best-selling varieties. The catalogue includes classic chocolate brownies, salted caramel brownies, chocolate orange brownies, Nutella brownies and the caramel cookie dough brownie, presented as the brand's best seller.

The shop also offers a nut-free version of the mixed box, designed for those who avoid these ingredients. The usual formats are boxes of six brownies and mixed boxes of eight, with prices starting at £15.95 for boxes of six and £19.95 for boxes of eight. There is also a Wonky Box, a selection of irregularly shaped pieces at a lower price, from £12.49.

Gift and celebration options

The company sells gift cards and a specific birthday brownies section, which includes a birthday brownie slab and a party pack with forty brownies. The brand notes that its boxes are suitable as a gift or for events and festivities such as Mother's Day, Father's Day, Easter and Christmas.

The catalogue is organised into collections that include, among others, the categories of best sellers, birthday brownies, blondies, mixed boxes, build-your-own boxes, hampers and new flavours.
