Mum wins competition for new cake on sale at Birds Bakery shops

A mum has won a competition to design a new Halloween product to be sold in 63 Birds Bakery stores across the East Midlands. Lauren Milner wowed a panel of judges with her 'Pumpkin Puff', a spooky take on a classic cream puff.

The cake is filled with chocolate orange cream, covered with orange icing and finished with green chocolate on top for the pumpkin stalk. The ‘Get Your Bake On’ competition launched during the summer, encouraging cake enthusiasts to share their designs on social media.

Lauren, from Derby, will not only see her creation in stores - including the recently opened Teal Park branch in Netherfield, but has also received a Birds' Burgundy Card entitling her to free Birds goodies throughout the year.
