Chilli Penguin Popty Lofty
 
Popty Lofty is an unashamedly ambitious penguin. It is the tallest of the wood fired Popty series, providing an oven for cooking, a generous wood fire box for heating and storage place for wood. It is the multi tasker of this family. Ask and you will receive; generosity and warmth, food and heat, toasty toes by the fire and crunchy toast on your plate, breakfast muffins, lunch time soups, afternoon sticky cakes and suppertime divine bakes.
We had to have a Popty series, welsh for oven. Who wouldn’t want to pop something in a popty? It is an old word possibly originating from the old shared bakehouses. “Pobi”, bake and “Ty”, house. We love the association with shared baking and perhaps stretching a hand back through the history to other generations who also cooked on solid fuel.
