King Edward Potato
Sold by the kilo, our King Edward potatoes offer soft creamy flesh that turns beautifully fluffy once cooked. The skins hold colour well and the flavour carries a warm comforting sweetness. Fresh stock arrives each morning which keeps the potatoes firm and full of life. Add some to your basket and enjoy proper potatoes for roasts and mash.
OVERVIEW
King Edward Potatoes Classic British Flavour with Light Fluffy Flesh
A Fresh Item with Real Character
King Edward potatoes have a reputation for good reason. When you pick one up you feel a gentle firmness and a smooth skin with soft pink patches that show off its traditional British roots. Once cut the flesh is pale and creamy with a clean aroma that promises a satisfying cook. At Gardners Patch we bring in King Edwards early so they reach the shelf while still full of natural moisture. They are the potato many home cooks trust for roasts, mash and classic family meals.

Sourcing and Freshness
King Edwards need steady handling to maintain their creamy structure. Our growers harvest and send them promptly which protects their natural moisture and firmness. Once they reach our Gloucester Road shop every batch is checked individually so Bristol customers receive potatoes that cook evenly and hold flavour well. This careful sourcing is what keeps their reputation strong in home kitchens.
Storage Tips
Store King Edward potatoes in a cool dry space away from direct light. They keep their firmness for several days and retain their creamy texture when cooked. Once cut or peeled keep pieces chilled and covered.
