Stephen joined the team at Genesis last year and has been working with the product development team and the company’s highly experienced Master Baker, Nigel Lennox, to come up with new concepts, not only for the new Afters range but also for the bakery’s wide range of prestigious retailers.
The Afters collection is available in stores across Northern Ireland and is a premium brand aimed at discerning customers who are looking for a special treat that tastes home-made.
Speaking about the new range, Paul Allen, executive chairman, Genesis said: “At Genesis we are dedicated to continually evolving and improving on the range that our customers have loved and known so well since the brand began its story over 50 years ago.

“We were delighted when Stephen agreed to join us to work across our businesses. He combines a passion for food with restaurant and business experience which is an unusual but very effective mix.
“Nigel, Stephen and all in New Product Development have tried to come up with something for everyone with this range, with chocolate and fruity options and beautiful decoration which is expertly hand-piped by our fantastic team. We’ve even given two of our firm favourites - jam bakes and iced tops - an upgrade and have produced our Best Ever versions. We shall also have seasonal variations, so the offering will change over the weeks with new cakes being introduced.”
Genesis products are sold in more than 600 stores across Northern Ireland. The bakery also produces a range of bread and cakes for retailers including Marks & Spencer and Waitrose.
