Busy half term.

Well, its clearly half term with children and parents out eating cake in their numbers, orders have rocketed this week, I'm expecting the same next week as the rest of the county have their school holidays too.

It was a busy day in the Honeypot Cakes kitchen yesterday, cupcakes taking on a slightly Halloween theme and various chocolate traybakes going down a storm, the most popular this week being my Malteser Slice and Millionaires Slice, I think the new pattern on top is looking great too. I'll post some pictures of these.

With all the cakes loaded into the car and ready to be delivered its action stations! Today, I'm sourcing some more items in preperation for the new website, first on the list are some new Brownie tins to fit my oven perfectly, hopefully with flat sides for a better finish and some gorgeous tissue paper to wrap the finished Brownies in. I really must sit down and finish my homework too or my web designer will put me on report when we meet in a week or so.Good job its nearly the weekend!

Have a fab cake eating weekend!

Here goes...

At last, I have managed to get my very first blog up and running, I knew there was a reason I chose to bake cakes for a day job as it seems anything technological is maybe not my forte. Stick to what your good at, for me thats baking.

I live with my two fabulous sons and spend most of my time running around after them, the rest of the time I'm to be found in the kitchen doing what I love. For six years now I've run a very successful business from home, Honeypot Cakes, I bake and supply cakes, traybakes and cupcakes to various cafe's, deli's and tea rooms in and around Leicestershire. My cakes are all truly homemade, I never add anything artificial to plump them up or prolong their shelf life, they simply don't need it!

So often I get fabulous feedback and comments from customers about my Chocolate Brownies inparticular that I've now decided to spread the brownie love and start supplying them on my very own website, which I am so proud of.

This blog is going to follow my progress into the exciting world of the internet.

Have fun sharing my journey with me.
