Its bakeries are booming, and now Two Magpies is expanding - into event catering.

The business, which launched 10 years ago in Southwold, is set to supply handmade bakes, bread and pastries to weddings, celebrations and other events across Norfolk and Suffolk.

The firm will also offer luxury grazing boards and boxes for any occasion. 

The announcement comes after the recent success of opening its new 'Mini Magpies' branch in Beccles.

Operations manager, Yasmin Wyatt, said: "We are fortunate enough to have many of our cafes based in areas where there are a lot of venues that cater for parties, weddings and various other events as well.

"We hope our newly launched range will appeal to a variety of people for various occasions.

"It's part of our business that we have been slowly building in the background for a couple of years now."

The new service marks the latest chapter in a rapid expansion. 

As well as a central bakery, Two Magpies has a baking school in Darsham and bakery-cafes in locations including Aldeburgh, Norwich, Blakeney, Holt and Woodbridge.

It has become known for its sourdough bread, handmade treats, cakes and hand-laminated pastries. Beccles & Bungay Journal: Martha Paterson (left) and Emily Kernohan (right) say they have had queues out of the door in the first week of the Beccles 'Mini Magpies' branchMartha Paterson (left) and Emily Kernohan (right) say they have had queues out of the door in the first week of the Beccles 'Mini Magpies' branch (Image: Bruno Brown)

For its catering service, Two Magpies has created a choice of boards that can be ordered either individually, or together, to create a unique grazing table.

The menu includes more than 20 boards to choose from, ranging from breakfast boards with savoury croissants, bagels and granola, to lunch and evening options with sandwiches, crudites, salad and charcuterie platters.

There is also a dessert menu that includes fruit and cheese boards and 'the ultimate' sweet treat board. Vegan and vegetarian boards are also available.
