Baking Mad with Mum

Over the past 7/8 years, my mum has developed a crazy passion for baking and of course, a mother's home made bake tastes better than you could ever imagine! I absolutely love my mum's cakes! Every year, we are guaranteed to have at least 5 of mum's cakes because she always makes us a cake on out birthdays!

2015 was the start of something big for my mum because she baked the biggest ever cake for my dad's surprise 50th birthday party! We were expected at leat 30 people to turn up and given that 95% of them were Indian, it was guaranteed to be a big feast! I think we worked out that my mum had made 40 ounces of cake for the party and by the end of the night, there was very little cake left. It was no surprise that the cake got eaten so quickly... it was covered with fresh cream, one side was a layered birthday sponge with jam and cream and the other side was a classic chocolate sponge layered with cream. It was a cake lovers dream (it was my dream). It took my brother and my mum to carry the cake (it was ridiculously heavy with all of the cream on) and everyone watched in amazement as they carried it through the garden.

The moment was definitely spectacular for my mum because everyone was convinced that we had ordered it from a cake shop. This is what pushed my mum to thinking about doing something with her baking talent. After weeks of encouragement, she finally agreed to start up her own cake business. As I type this blog, she is trying to finalise her initial menu so I can start publicising for her.

With my dad working in events management and catering, this could see them working as a great duo in business or it could see them hating business together and taking their own separate business path. Either way, they both know I will always be there to support them with whatever I can. It's probably going to be a rough road for my mum to get her business up and running but I hope that with the power of social media we can get her making cakes for everyone to enjoy!!

Those of you who are interested in my mum's cakes, stay tuned because I will be posting links to her social media pages once they are up and running!!
