Not bad, after a 60hr working week of nights and only 1.5hrs of sleep 🤣 (even if I do say so myself 🤭)
This was a yummy 4 layer red velvet, with cream cheese flavoured buttercream. Topper and flowers provided by the customer.
I'm a little bit in love with these colours!

A big gold and black 8" vanilla sponge with biscoff filling, for Sebi's future father in law 😆
Despite black buttercream being a pain in the bum to make and work with I do love the look of it. And I think I feel a new obsession incoming...mini doughnuts! Oh, the possibilities for flavour, sprinkles, etc

A 50th wedding anniversary definitely deserves cake! This was a four layer lemon cake, with vanilla buttercream and lemon curd filling. It was yummy - I got to eat some as it was for my lovely in laws!

Preach! I know before I started seriously baking I had no kdea of the costs involved - it's been a real eye opener.

“It’s only butter & eggs”

Last week one of my daughters came home saying that someone had said to her that my cakes were “too expensive” which got me thinking how much my profit will have gone down with all the heavy price increases recently… with butter going from £1.50-£1.75 a block 🤦🏻‍♀️
Let’s not talk about how much my house bills have gone up, imagine your oven being on allll day 😭
This price breakdown is missing lots of other elements… cleaning time, dealing with enquiries, cleaning products, collection times, LATE collection times, insurance, online training, allergen stickers, cake tins, equipment, the list could go on 🤦🏻‍♀️

This post is made just to give customers a little insight into how much actually goes into your price breakdown and how much it actually costs to make your cakes 🎂

On that note THANK YOU to all my lovely customers, I wouldn’t be here without you 💗
