Thanks to everyone who has still kept orders with me for celebration cakes. I'm still taking these orders and all being well we can continue to keep in stock our ingredients. Info on how to order is in the bio.
People are still having birthdays so you can still treat yourself or a dear friend or neighbour.
With recently returning to the bakery for Friday baking, I found it pretty lonely with no one else being around, but now it is the safest way to work. 🤷‍♀️ Congratulations to Nat and Ed on their anniversary the other week. 💕

Hello and morning, yes we are still in this surrea

Hello and morning, yes we are still in this surreal and overwhelming nightmare, so much worry and uncertainty around right now, but I'm also seeing so much love, care and kindness. Things are going to be so tough for so many and so much is out of our control. If you can spare any cash to help out your local indie coffee shop, bakery, deli, cafe, local farm shop, market stall, bar, restaurant, then please continue to do so. Lots of places are having to adapt very quickly to try and keep things afloat, takeaway and delivery services as well as vouchers for the future. Yes there is a future. Feeling hopeful that the strong community and support of Leeds can help a lot of people in time of need. Take care, love to you all, Elly
Picture of cake, because we all need cake.

We can home deliver around Leeds at the weekend should people want some sweet goods. We are also in discussion with @leedsbreadcoop to help home deliver bread to areas in East Leeds as this is closer to home for me as i'm wanting to keep in my nearby community. (Whitkirk, Crossgates, Garforth, Colton) please email me if you are interested. hello@thatoldchestnutishere.com
It is a hugely worrying time for anyone with an independant business and with staff to keep in jobs. It is massively worrying that this pandemic has brought out so much selfishness. I worry that this will push so many people into poverty.
Let us all try and do our bit. Offer help to neighbours and those who are vulnerable. If you can't directly go to the indie shops/cafes etc that you usually go to then lots of places are offering vouchers. Support them now. They need your help.
Take care everyone. Lots of love. X

Whilst on maternity over the past 6 months, I've been lucky enough to do plenty of home baking as my partner and I took shared parental leave. One thing I've played around with lots are cinnamon rolls. We even made a song about them! They are almost there! A slow proof over night in the fridge make for some cinnamon rolls ready to bake first thing in the morning. Upto press I've baked them all together but wanted to have individual ones to curb how many I eat! Ha!
I can not wait to be baking with my little one.
