Today….a happy party for 36!

Thanks chef Bogdan 🙏 always making it so nice for me, making the food pop with that gorgeous red cardigan 📸 and Daphne the dog for having a taste sesh with the lemon possets. She loved them!

Also a tiny mention of the silly ‘kinda chic’ trend.

I love you, have a good weekend. ☀️

A few snaps of a busy spell… first 6 pics were all done with 3 large celebration cake orders, usual weekly orders and deliveries within 24 hours (bed at 1.20am alarm 4.20am) I pulled it off with the help of Fergal 🫶

Lovely work experience Alannah, sausage rolls, more nice cakes and Fergal with an Ilkley Kitchen Coconut cake in Manchester.
