Do you know how memory foam mattresses are made? I didn’t, but in 2007 I decided to find out as I was researching “What makes the perfect mattress?”

I went to a factory in Singapore and watched chemicals being poured into one end of this enormous “Charlie & the Chocolate Factory” style machine before a mattress popped out the other end. Clever, I thought. And also slightly disturbing.

So I banished the idea of ever offering memory foam and instead concentrated on the recipe for the popular pocket-sprung mattress our friend Louis has been hand-making for us in Wiltshire ever since 

But there is a portion of people out there (you know who you are!) who insist on a memory foam mattress. So with the help of Louis we’ve now developed a marshmallow-like beauty that contains a lovely layer of natural latex with individual pocket springs.

It feels like memory foam. Only it’s nicer. And with its extra layer of squidge we decided to call it….the Muffin Top! They're priced from £545 and available to order now on our website.

So go ahead and feel the loaf!

Love,
