After nearly 18 wonderful years at Mintel, it’s time for me to begin an exciting new chapter.
Like many people, I felt a little lost at first. But I’ve come to realise that every ending creates space for a new beginning, and I’m choosing to embrace this opportunity with optimism and gratitude.
A year ago, I suffered a stroke, and at times I genuinely felt it had nearly destroyed me. It changed my life in ways I could never have imagined. But I refused to let it define me. With determination, faith, and the support of incredible people around me, I kept fighting every single day. That journey has taught me resilience, gratitude, and the importance of believing in yourself, even when life feels at its hardest.
I’m delighted to be back doing what I truly love—creating bespoke cakes and teaching the art of cake decorating to anyone who dreams of learning a new skill or starting a side hustle.
I’m slowly building my portfolio, and I’m thrilled that my work is now reaching clients across London. I’ve also had the pleasure of baking for clients in Los Angeles, where my cakes received such a wonderful response.
A huge thank you to every client who has trusted me to be part of their special celebrations, and to those who have recommended me to family and friends. Your support and encouragement mean more than you’ll ever know.
To anyone facing unexpected change, remember that it doesn’t have to be the end of your story—it can be the beginning of something even better. I loved my career and gave it my all, but I also believe that God has a plan for each of us, even when we can’t see it at first.
Here’s to new opportunities, new friendships, new adventures, and plenty of beautiful cakes! I’m excited to see where this journey leads, and I hope you’ll come along for the ride.
