A LAKE District company has adapted to the Coronavirus pandemic by creating a virtual bakery.

Working with design agency Scratch Creative, Lovingly Artisan established a virtual bakery store as part of its website offering, which allows people to select from up to 13 breads (a baker's dozen) including loaves from the company's heritage and healthy eating ranges.

Customers can add these to their online baskets and have them delivered the next day.

Catherine Connor, of Lovingly Artisan, said: "We saw this as an opportunity to further develop our business and to help us reach new markets whilst at the same time meeting the demand from potential customers for our quality artisan sourdough breads.

"Obviously being able to meet that demand presented us with a number of challenges but, thanks to some very innovative companies, we have been able to meet those challenges head on and can now begin to deliver fresh Lovingly Artisan breads direct to people’s homes up and down the country.’’
