Suzi-Q Cakes

I started baking when my best friend moved to New Zealand I us to spend all my time with her at the weekends when she moved I was lost I even tried to get a dog to entertain me the landlord said no!

I always loved making and making things but never had the patience to really get stuck into it. Until now I started looking up cupcake decorations and cupcake ideas and over the course of time I started getting better and better and working out how things worked best!

I started making cakes for birthdays etc people started saying you should do it as a job. I didn’t believe they would be good enough but i thought its worth a go.

Eventually I want to open a cafe cake shop with a book store and book exchange. Who knows we shall wait and see,  for now I’m enjoying making up new recipes and trying out new ideas. So far my favorite I have made is a plain sponge filled with lemon curd topped with butter cream DELICIOUS if I do say so myself.
