For 35 years I've been on a journey filled with flour dusted aprons, the comforting hum of ovens, and the irresistible aroma of freshly baked goods.

It all started when I was 17, a young baker with a passion for all things sweet. Little did I know that this passion would take me on a culinary adventure through the heart of the Cotswolds, where I've been lucky enough to bake, cook, and create in some of the regions most beloved cafes, restaurants, pubs, high end outside catering services and bakeries, and even a cookery school.

Each place I have worked has added a new layer to my experience, enriching my skills, and deepening my love of the craft from the bustling kitchens of cozy cafes to the refined elegance of upscale catering, every step of the way has been a testament to the simple joys of baking. There's something magical about transforming simple ingredients into something that brings people together, whether it's a comforting loaf of bread, a decadent slice of cake, or a batch of cookies fresh from the oven.

Now, after decades of honing my skills, I'm excited to share my passion with you. Doesn't have to be complicated, its all about understanding the basics, embracing the process, and most importantly, enjoying the sweet rewards at the end, whether your a seasoned baker or a complete novice, I'm here to show you how simple and satisfying baking can be.

So, join me on this next chapter of my journey, where we will explore the art of baking together, let's roll up our sleeves, dust off those mixing bowls and create something delicious.
