*** Please take the time to read***
It is with a very heavy heart that I have to announce the closure of my business until further notice.
I started my baking business way back in August 2014 whilst I was studying, and through the support of many loved ones and friends around me, this business has become bigger than I ever imagined. I have been challenged and brought to tears, I have lost countless hours of sleep, I have delivered cakes (with much needed assistance from my family) to remote places, and have had a few crises - (like melting cakes in the heat). This however, and my fellow bakers can attest to this, is part of having a business of this kind and even though there have been stressful times, I have still loved each and every order in its own way, and have met some wonderful people.
For those of you who know me very well, this year has been an extremely difficult one for me. I started my teaching career this year and quickly realised just how much time the job demands. A few months ago, I started to limit the numbers of orders that I took on, hoping that it would ease the stress, but unfortunately I have really struggled. I am taking on many more responsibilities next year and also have a few other personal goals which will require more of my time. I therefore decided that the best thing for me would be to close my business.
Please know that this has been an extremely difficult decision for me and I really am truly sorry to my very loyal customers, some who have been supporting me from the beginning.
Please do not leave this page as there are a few orders which I am still finishing off with. I will also keep you updated on when I intend to start up my business again (potentially July 2020).... so watch this space :)
