Seasonal and local

We don't like to brag, but Arjuna is quite unique in offering customers the chance to select loose, unpackaged organic fruit and vegetables.

If you just need one unwaxed lemon, a serving of Brussels sprouts (yes the first ones are here! we've also got the sticks too! see bottom left) Or perhaps you're after a whole sack of potatoes? Then we can help!

We receive deliveries nearly every day of the week and right now the shop is overflowing with a harvest of local pumpkins & squash, rainbow carrots and much more! 

And what's more we hope you'll be surprised at what good value much of our produce is 

The baking habit

As you've probably realised by now, we quite like Cakes.

 

From our classic date slice made from a secret yet simple recipe handed down through generations, to our new gluten free creations such as our sunny Carrot cake with teff, or bright and zesty lemon drizzle cake, we use organic ingredients whenever possible and coconut palm sugar or apple juice concentrate to give natural sweetness. 

 

Our most recent baking adventures resulted in a special apple and coconut cake for apple day, and a light but hugely comforting Bakewell tart.

 

Our selection changes daily, so next time you're passing remember to have a peek through the window and why not treat yourself? We think you've earned it:) 



Seasonal squash

Harlequins, Kabocha, custard & spaghetti! just some of the varieties of local squash we currently have care of the lovely people at Snakehall Farm and our good friends at Waterland Organics.

The little Kabocha squash are a staff favourite. Rich in beta carotene, iron, vitamin C and potassium, and with a taste somewhere between sweet potato and chestnuts, we recommend this little pumpkin stuffed with green lentils, feta and rosemary.

We're also enjoying some excellent pumpkins from Frank at the Cambridge Organic Garden whose excellent raspberries are also a seasonal favourite. 

Gluten Free Beer!

People often ask us if there is such a thing as gluten free beer.. Well we looked far and wide and at last found this vegan & gluten free beer by Glebe Farm!

Frank's fantastic raspberries!

If you've not yet tried our wonderful organic raspberries grown locally by the ever cheerful Frank of The Cambridge Organic Market Garden, there are still a few coming!  

We also had the first beautiful pumpkins this week care of our good friends at Snakehall Farm 

A new offering for Autumn

Today's special is a mushroom and chickpea stroganoff with roasted beetroot and new potatoes.

 

 

We also have a Tofu Tagine, a selection of pasties and a few chocolate brownies left!

 

 

 

Gluten free Carrot Cake with Teff

Here's a peek at our latest work in progress! A new gluten free carrot cake made with Teff

Native to Ethiopia, Teff is high in fibre, calcium and protein

The first one has just come out of the oven and is cooling down

Come in on Friday and let us know what you think!
