A GOOD WEEK!!

A little about myself. I've been working in the catering industry for quite a lot of years now and have really enjoyed it! But recently i've just had a little girl named daisy (she is 3 months old now) and have decided that i most definitely do not want to go back to work for 60 hours a week and miss her growing up. so... the plan is to start making money at home. the plan is all things vintage. to begin with im starting with the cupcake and making vintage picnic baskets and see how that goes. i've been researching over the last few months and have made quite a good start! Jan and Feb was spend trawling the internet and researching everything! and this month i have managed to start my website, have passed the health and hygiene inspection with 3 stars(which is apparently the most a new business can get as i don't have any record's of sales yet), passed my health and hygiene course which i did online and received my certificate 2 day's later and only cost £30, bargain! I've also found 1 craft cafe in yeovil to sell a picnic basket in and i'm doing a few free bees to get my self noticed. mini cupcakes for wedding favours and cakes for the local record shop for record shop day.



this weeks plans are, finish professional cookery level 2 course, just paperwork to do now so hopefully can finish by the end of the week, finish my picnic basket and take pics for website facebook etc. look into getting a space at the food market in yeovil on a tues and practice making wedding favours, think we're going for ginger but we shall see.

I'm going to spend my evening making banana cupcakes this evening so pics to follow. xx

in the right direction!

Everything seems to be going in the right direction with my new business venture. starting to set everything up, will hopefully be ready to launch daisy's vintage kitchen on 1st april 2011!

Need to take photos of my cakes and desserts for advertising so having friends over tomorrow which is an excuse to make a cake!
