SWEET & FAIR
CATERING AND CAKES FOR ANY OCCASION
Sweet & Fair is a small, home-based catering business, run by trained pastry chef and qualified nutritionist, Abby. We specialise in high-quality homemade food for parties and events, including afternoon teas, cold buffets, dessert tables and bespoke cakes. We are based in Gateshead, very close to Newcastle upon Tyne, and serve Tyne & Wear and further afield in the North East. So whether you're organising a work party or planning a wedding, have a browse and get in touch to find out how we can cater for your special occasion!
About Our Business
Why Sweet & Fair?
When Sweet & Fair began, it was all about sharing our love of baking and patisserie, so it felt only right that ‘Sweet’ should be reflected in our name! Over the years, we have branched out into savoury food, and now offer a variety of delicate sandwiches, colourful salads and flavourful pastries. But making sweet treats remains a passion and we pride ourselves on the array of high-quality homemade desserts we provide.
​
As for ‘Fair’, it's important to us that our business treats people fairly, contributes positively to the community and respects the environment. This means sourcing our ingredients carefully; for example, choosing Fairtrade or Rainforest Alliance certified products, free range eggs, and local British produce where possible; and continually looking for ways to reduce our carbon footprint. Most of our packaging is recyclable, reusable or compostable, and being a small business helps us to minimise food waste (we’ll gladly finish off anything we don’t manage to sell, even the sandwich crusts!) Finally, we donate 10% of profits to charities - particularly those who aim to improve nutrition and combat poverty, hunger and social inequalities.

As for ‘Fair’, it has always been important to us to ensure that our business operates in a way that treats people and animals fairly, contributes positively to the local community and respects the environment. This means sourcing our ingredients carefully; for example, choosing products that are certified with the Fairtrade mark or Rainforest Alliance logo, only ever using free range eggs, and selecting local British produce where possible. We’re also always looking for ways to reduce our carbon footprint and most of our packaging is recyclable, reusable or compostable. Being a small business helps us to minimise food waste (we’ll gladly finish off anything we don’t manage to sell, even the sandwich crusts!) And finally, we donate 10% of our net profits to charity - particularly charities who aim to reduce poverty and social inequalities; improve nutrition and combat hunger.
Everything was excellent thanks, lots of very good feedback like “that’s the best catering we’ve had!” I loved the eclairs but I’m saving a cheesecake until later on, I’m so full!
