Written by the company

George Romney Ltd is a fourth-generation confectionery business that you’ll find located on the edge of the Lake District National Park in the market town of Kendal. Mr Sam. T. Clarke, the great grandfather of the present Managing Director, Mr John Barron, started production of Romney’s Kendal Mint Cake in 1918 after being medically discharged during the First World War. Unable to obtain supplies of Kendal Mint Cake, he sought out and purchased an old recipe and started a confectionery manufacturing business. The company name ‘George Romney Ltd.’ was chosen as a result of Kendal’s association with the famous portrait painter, as well as the fact that the family home was on Romney Road. Romney's Kendal Mint Cake was immortalised in history on May 29th 1953 when it was carried on the first successful summit of Mount Everest by Sir Edmund Hillary and Sirdar Tenzing. All of our production now takes place on-site at Mintsfeet Industrial Estate, Kendal, where we have been since 1969. We now employ 16 members of full and part-time staff, who collectively produce over 100 tonnes of Romney’s Kendal Mint Cake a year. We also produce a large range of fudge, gift hampers, and our very own Old Fashioned Treacle Toffee — that’s still being made to an original family recipe.

well made

The company kept in touch with all aspects of delivery including item leaving the warehouse, being with couriers, out for delivery and being delivered. The neck snood I ordered looks great, is smooth to touch, comfortable to wear and looks to be well printed. Love the logo and will wear it while out on my motorbike

Great value running fuel

Straightforward website simple and easy to navigate and order ... quick delivery too.
But more importantly, a fabulous way to fuel during longer runs. Good sized bars, easy to carry and provide food simple sugars to keep me running, without upsetting my stomach and great value too!!

White Romneys Kendal Mint Cake

White Romneys mint cake is not only delicious however it’s nutritious and packed full of energy. We use it each time we have any exercise I recommended it to my friends who also find it incredibly beneficial and so tasty .

As of now

As of now, the Kendal Mint Cake hasn't arrived, so it's rather hard to give a positive review. I am battling the delivery service to work out where it is and when it will arrive.

Fast service, odd shape

The mint cakes came quickly and were securely packaged. They taste as delicious as usual! My one quibble would be that while the white-packaged cakes fit neatly into the pocket tin, the replacement bars with the blue packaging do not fit well. Why the two sizes? Anyway, I will be purchasing them again, probably sooner than I think....
