Sweetie Trees
It's been a week of "tree talk" at The Sweet Shop this week, with an order for 60 large marshmallow trees for a very exciting event in Saffron Walden in July.
I was also making a birthday tree for a customer on Friday - and the great thing about having a small shop is that customers can see us in action when we're making these great trees - and we ended up taking orders for 3 more of the same that afternoon. We all love making these trees and our customers constantly give us the inspiration for another creation. Friday's trees were all for birthday boys and all had a jelly snake theme. I want to do some girlie ones this week, so I'm thinking candy necklaces and lots of pink................ let see what happens!

Travelling Sweets
My sweets and hire items have been borrowed, begged and stolen for all sorts of things (well not quite but you know what I mean). This time it was a very exciting photo shoot styled by the uber talented Kate Fletcher. Kate met with the winner of last year's Masterchef, Dr Tim Kinnaird for this stunning shoot. Tim gave up medicine and now has his own patisserie making the most wonderful macarons. I think you'll agree that they look amazing and judging by the goodies on display it was a good move! Photographer for the day was Charlotte Griffiths and I think the images are truly stunning. And Kate, you are, as ever, my styling guru xx
