Happy 8th Birthday Elspeth 🎈 👸

Some of the cakes you’ve had over the years.

Where has the time gone?!

21/07/2026

What a busy week last week.

Sorry for a couple of mix ups regarding collections (some delays dis not help the matter)

Also regarding collections, as I operate my business from home, there are times I am not in (school drop offs and pick ups, and the children having activities in an evening) I will try my best to accommodate convenient times but there are some I am unable to do.

Also weekend Saturday collections are mornings only. Having three children we have a very busy family life so I can not be around in the middle of the day.

The children break up this week - where has that time gone?!
So my working hours from next week will look a bit different and I will be spending most of my days out entertaining them over the next few weeks before enjoying a couple of weeks off.

Please bear with me, with messages & phone calls. Messaging is the best way to get a reply, trying to get to the phone with the kids around can be a nightmare (I don’t get a minute)

Keep a look out for our summer offer coming in August.

Even when I’m off I will still have my diary and phone with me to take any bookings.

I have been so rubbish lately at taking photos - I blame the hot weather.

As much as I enjoy the lovely sunny weather, it’s not great when you’re baking.

Please remember when collecting cakes -
• have the air con on full blast

• cake needs to be kept flat ( in the boot , footwell or held) not on the seats

• go straight home, don’t leave the cake in the car for any period of time - it will melt!

• when you get home put the cake in the fridge

Never put the cake in direct sunlight, all cakes are held with buttercream and butter melts.

Prior to collection all cakes are kept in the fridge.

On another note we have the odd last minute availability over the next couple of weeks before we enjoy a couple of weeks away in August.

So for any cake enquiries please give us a message.

Our buffets have also been very busy lately too, so just ask for any information on those two.

What a super hot week last week was ☀️ 🥵

Being a baker in those conditions is certainly testing, especially when we don’t have air con. For the amount of sun we do get it’s not worth it at the moment so I have to just try my best and do what I can.

I’m definitely glad for a bit of cooler weather - today is lovely! ☺️

When the weather is hot, be sure to make sure cakes are collected in an Air -Con car and kept flat (in the footwell, boot or held) then kept in the fridge until you need the cake) do not leave in direct sunlight or in the heat - it will MELT!

Here’s is our next availability -
Weeks commencing
- 6th July
- 20th July
- 27th July
- 3rd August
- 31st August
- 7th September

Please message to get booked in.
