A Gateshead-based cake business set up by a mum and daughter team has won big at an awards ceremony in London.
Cake Stories, started in 2015 by Hannah Evans and her mum Liz, won North East Business Entrepreneur of the Year at the Great British Entrepreneur Awards after growing the wholesale side of their business by 260% in the last year.
The business began as a single shop in Jesmond but has now grown to incorporate a shop in Byker and a separate bakery in Gateshead that all work in conjunction with an online shop service. Hannah now runs the business with her husband Ben, although her parents Liz and Jon are still active.
