It has been a minute since we did a little reintroduction, so with that overdue let’s get to it! And because instagram likes reels, enjoy one of my tomato pocket hauls…
Hi 👋 I’m Rachael, the woman behind it all. From answering your cake queries, ordering in and fetching all the stock, to baking and making all those celebration cakes, bread loaves and nice things in the bake shed, to packaging it all up and oh yes, the social media side of things - we try at least! 🫠
Baker by nature, Sugars by name, no I’m not joking. I mean it was either going to be stick with the diabetes research or get into baking and after a move back home, the pipettes got traded in for the piping bags!
To stick with the theme, I have Type 1 Diabetes and have lived with it longer now than without. Autoimmune in cause, yes I can still eat what I bake with some careful consideration and a shot of the good stuff - insulin! Cue the scales and a calculator for some carbs per 100g of baked goods! 🤓 Shout out to all my T1D lovelies! ❤️
I love gardening, growing (or trying to grow) my own where I can and cooking! And when I get the chance travelling… ✈️
