Hey everyone, this week it’s back to northern England to chat with Tracy of Cotton and Crumbs.  Just 2 years into running her business she realised that not every aspect of running a cake business is exciting.  For most of us, it’s the decorating or designing bit - the art - that we all really enjoy.  

So, she employed her husband to do all the boring bits.  Baking the cakes, making the buttercream or ganache, cleaning!  This then allowed Tracy to focus on what she did best and what she enjoys the most.  Designing cakes, and especially making flowers.  

Tracy’s ability to create flowers for her cakes are some of the best we’ve seen.  Her style is all about elegance with contemporary wedding cake design.  You notice I say the word “design” a lot because you guys are ARTISTS and what you design on a cake is nothing short of incredible!  

It’s good to remind yourself of that because you don’t just make cakes, you create art that’s edible!  Tracy’s been in this game for a while now and has a lot of sound advice to share especially for wedding cake listeners.  

So, let’s jump right in…. Enjoy this one.
