Puckles Family Bakehouse is a new venture from the Plarre family – one of Australia’s longest serving baking families. The Plarres established themselves as quality Australian bakers in 1911 under the name ‘Plarre’s Cakes’ in Victoria. They are also the force behind the award-winning Ferguson Plarre Bakehouses in Victoria, which continues to grow and build on its strong success. Alongside Ferguson Plarre Bakehouses, the Plarres are building this new Australian made and Australian owned business in Queensland, led by Mike and Steve Plarre.
The Puckles name
Mike and Steve’s great-grandfather opened his first bakery in Puckle Street, in Victoria, as one of thousands of immigrants. They named Puckles after the street as a tribute to his life and the legacy he left for their family. Puckle Street was a landmark in their family’s history and the beginning of a love affair of sorts with baking and with life in Australia.
