The Notts corner shop selling cakes sent 1,594 miles from Latvia - and customers can't get enough

Whether you need to get some groceries, are buying your favourite newspaper or looking for something to help your sweet tooth, corner shops have everything. We checked out one of Mansfield's highest-rated stores and spoke to the people behind the counter.

Justina Corner shop is run by Ina Strovalda, 45, who moved to England from Latvia 17 years ago, and her Lithuanian husband. The store, in Westfield Lane, Mansfield, sells just about everything, but one selling point stands out.

Ina and her husband have cakes sent from 1,594 miles away in Lavia to England. They complete the final stage of the bake when they arrive in Mansfield and it's certainly something which has proven to be a hit with customers.
