The business originally started off in Scawsby with a shop on Winchester Way, but they moved into a premises on College Road near the Waterdale centre 2 years ago.

“We didn’t realise how busy we we’re going to be. We quickly gained contracts with suppliers including Yorkshire Wildlife Park and wedding venues in the area.

“Which meant we had boxes of cupcakes piling up so we were looking for somewhere bigger,” Marie continued.
