Good morning 🤍
I would like to sincerely apologise for the recent lack of communication. As many of you know, I do work full-time, and balancing my career alongside my small business can sometimes be challenging.
However, I want to reassure you that baking remains my passion. It is something I truly love and take great pride in, which is why The Happy Baker continues to operate despite my busy schedule.
To answer the question I am most frequently asked — yes, I am still baking.
Please note that I currently offer a limited menu, specialising only in cakes and cupcakes. This allows me to focus on quality and ensure that every order receives the attention and care it deserves.
Due to limited availability, I only take a certain number of orders per weekend. My dates fill up quickly, so I kindly ask that you place your orders well in advance to avoid disappointment.
