So, I have some newsโฆ!
I started this business 6 years ago ๐ฑ whilst on mat leave with my younger son (during lockdown), mainly as something to have for myself outside of being a mum, and certainly never anticipating leaving my existing job to run the business full time!
I feel incredibly fortunate to have been able to do something that I love for so long and to have had the flexibility to be so present for my boys during their earliest years. The support Iโve had from the local community has meant so much to me and is what has allowed me to run the business for this long. I really canโt thank my customers enough, especially the many very loyal ones โค๏ธ Being able to work with other local businesses as a supplier has been the cherry on top of the (chocolate ๐) cake.
Now that both of my boys are well settled in to school, I have decided it is the right time to return to full time employment. I am excited to have accepted a job offer and will be starting this September! Whilst Iโll miss BAKED by Pippa a lot - especially the customers - I am so looking forward to starting a new chapter in my life. When Iโm old and grey, I will look back on these last few years as some of the best of my life ๐ฅฐ
I will be running as usual until August so do please still continue to place orders as usual ๐
Iโm thinking of doing some pick your own treat boxes and mixed bags for nostalgiaโs sake over the next couple of months so keep eyes peeled for that and be sure to let me know if thereโs anything in particular youโd like to see!
P.S. Scroll for a few pics from over the years for a wee trip down memory lane ๐ฅฒ
