Now for the main event 🎆

We were very honoured to asked by one of our customers to supply her with these custom cupcakes for her dear friend and author Tracy Borman to celebrate the release of her new book: “The House of Boleyn” 🥀

We absolutely love how these turned out and we were grateful to be asked to do another 12 for a separate occasion a couple of weeks later 🌹

To top it off, we kindly received a thank you card from Tracy herself alongside her friend whose idea it was for the cupcakes as a surprise ✨

Finally! Last week was work experience week for us and we were delighted to welcome Alfie to the Bakery to gain some first hand experience on how everything works and what we do. It was an absolute pleasure to have Alfie for the week and he got stuck in with everything and showed great enthusiasm. He got on so well with us all that we now feel lost without him 🙈. Alfie, you are a credit to your family and we couldn’t have wished for a better placement. Good luck for the future Alfie 🤩
