The Bear and the Ladle Gourmet Foods, Burma In Ya Belly and Hamlet Downs Country Smallgoods – Fentonbury, Tasmania
Established on the Sunshine Coast in 2010 and now settled into their new commercial space located in Fentonbury, Central Highlands region, Tasmania.
We loved our journey where it all began on the Sunshine Coast, QLD in 2010. Though change, transition and growth have been key for us all since 2020 and we used that time to bed down some new, solid foundations for our next phase of our businesses, which remain our passion and joy! We’ve moved on to the perfect agri-tourism venue at Hamlet Downs Country Accom to bring you true paddock to plate gourmet food experiences from our farm-raised and grown produce.
The Bear and The Ladle artisan condiments and the Burma In Ya Belly Asian inspired chilli range are multi award winning condiments made with love and pride in our new commercial kitchen based in the Central Highlands region. They are the perfect accompaniment to your favourite dishes and the range continues to grow.
….AND now we have added Hamlet Downs Country Smallgood’s award-winning farm-raised smallgoods to our ever expanding family of products.

Farm stays…
Nestled in the Derwent Valley is the picturesque Hamlet Downs Country Accom – Come and stay, and escape, relax and rejuvenate.
It’s the little small businesses that do incredible work.. and mixed with the triple cream brie, This one here it’s our favourite isn’t it Lisa- The Bear and the Ladle’s, Beetroot Rosemary Mustard.. try this – I mean, I mean…
Honestly our lives have changed (for the better) This stuff is insanely good…This Beetroot Mustard is amazingly good.
I’ve just had a taste sample of the Coriander Honey mustard and its like WOW I’m not wasting money buying generic mustard from the big grocery stores any more – they have NO flavour! So thank you from my taste-buds. Beautiful local products made on the Sunshine Coast and you should be SO PROUD of what you are doing !!!! It is AMAZING.
So much added depth of flavour using your De-Vinely Red in our stews and casseroles. Minty Rosemary spice blend is my husband’s favourite on lamb roasts now and adding your Coriander Honey Mustard to aioli makes a perfect dressing for potato salad with a depth of flavour. We love your products.
Being Vegetarian I am always looking for new flavours to enjoy. Your products tick the box of new and exciting flavours and then some. I especially love the Apricot Relish.
