A busy mum-of-two has followed her dream of baking cakes and set up her own cake company with a £350 grant. Simone, 32, from Willenhall, has always loved baking and found she baked more when she was on maternity leave.
Her cakes proved to be a hit with friends and family who placed orders to buy her delicious bakes. Feeling confident and inspired by the constant stream of cake orders, Simone decided to set up her own cake business.
Not one to shy away from a challenge, the creative mum made the decision to go part-time at her day job where she is mortgage advisor. She applied for a Prince’s Trust grant and was given £350, which was just enough to buy boxes, cake boards, logo letterheads, leaflets and ribbons.
