A true taste of Britain awaits at Shakespeare's Corner Shoppe.

Few desserts are more beloved in the United Kingdom than Ambrosia Devon Custard and Ambrosia Rice Pudding. Produced in Devon, England, Ambrosia has been a household favourite since 1917, earning its place in generations of British homes. Made in the heart of the English countryside, these comforting classics have long been enjoyed as simple puddings, warming desserts, and nostalgic family treats.

Devon Custard is rich, smooth and creamy, perfect poured over puddings, cakes, fruit crumbles and traditional British desserts. Ambrosia Rice Pudding offers a wonderfully comforting taste of home, made with milk and rice for the classic flavour generations of Britons grew up enjoying.

We are delighted to stock both at Shakespeare's Corner Shoppe, bringing an authentic taste of Britain to San Diego. Whether you're a British expat seeking a familiar favourite or simply looking to discover one of Britain's most iconic desserts, you'll find them on our shelves waiting to be enjoyed.

Alongside these treasured classics, we proudly stock many of the British staples found in homes throughout the United Kingdom, from biscuits, sweets and chocolates to preserves, teas, pantry favourites and traditional treats. If it's a taste of Britain you're looking for, you'll find it at Shakespeare's Corner Shoppe.

The Cherry Tree Lane Gazette has arrived!

The June 2026 edition is now available, packed with the latest news, special announcements, and upcoming adventures from both Shakespeare’s Corner Shoppe and The Britannia Tearooms.

This month we are celebrating an incredible milestone as Shakespeare’s Corner Shoppe is recognised for 25 years in business and receives a proclamation from the City of San Diego. Thank you to every customer, friend, and supporter who has been part of this journey.

We are also delighted to introduce Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Blend, our newest tea. A fairy poetic blend where black tea mingles with garden favourites, creating a floral, velvety cup with a gentle sweetness worthy of a Midsummer Dream. Throughout June, simply ask for a complimentary sample at The Britannia Tearooms or Shakespeare’s Corner Shoppe. Online customers will also receive a complimentary sample tucked into June orders while supplies last.

Plus, discover what's coming next with our upcoming themed afternoon teas, including Pirates on the High Teas and Camelot: King Arthur’s Quest, two magical summer experiences filled with storytelling, treats, and unforgettable memories.

Pick up your copy of the Cherry Tree Lane Gazette in either location or read along online and stay connected with everything happening at your favourite British destinations in San Diego.
