🍪✨ Important question for National Biscuit Day… ✨🍪

What’s the BEST biscuit of all time? 👀

☕ Chocolate Digestive
🍪 Custard Cream
🍫 Bourbon
🥛 Oreo
🍓 Jammy Dodger
🍪 Hobnob
…or something else entirely?

Choose wisely — this is a very serious discussion. 😂👇

🧁✨ What’s Working Right Now (and What’s Not) ✨🧁

Running a bakery means learning as you go… so here’s our honest update 👀

✔️ What’s working:
• Fresh bakes straight from the kitchen
• Cupcake flavours inspired by cocktails 🍸
• Last-minute treat runs
• Your lovely recommendations & repeat orders 🤍

❌ What’s not:
• Trying to photograph cupcakes before eating one
• Remembering to take breaks during busy days
• Carrying six coffee cups and a cake box at the same time 😂

Small business life is a mix of wins, lessons, and a little chaos — but we wouldn’t have it any other way.

What’s working (or not working) for you right now? 👇

🧁✨ Baker-Lou FAQ ✨🧁

One of the questions we get asked the most… 👀

❓ “How should I store my cupcakes?”

For the best taste and texture, keep your cupcakes:
✔️ In an airtight container
✔️ At room temperature
✔️ Away from direct sunlight or heat

Try to enjoy them fresh within a couple of days (if they last that long 😋).

Want to save them for later? ❄️
You can freeze your cupcakes too! Simply:
✔️ Wrap each cake well in cling film
✔️ Pop them into an airtight container or freezer bag
✔️ Freeze for up to 3 months

When you’re ready to enjoy, let them thaw at room temperature — and they’ll be ready for round two. 🤍
