Home Made by Tana Ramsay
It’s easy to knock Tana Ramsay, although perhaps best not to do when the old man is around, but it’s also unfair too. Sure she’s the wife of a very rich and powerful man but unlike say Nigella, she wasn’t born into money and status and at the end of the day she is a down to earth mother the like of which can be seen as guests, hosts or victims any day on Daytime TV…..

You gotta roll with it
Who’d have thought an Oasis song would provide a headline for a piece about baking? Can’t see Liam in a pinafore really but Patsy….mmm.

Castle Chocolates sign a sweet deal with Tesco
It wasn’t long ago that David Hughes hand made his raspberry liqueur chocolates in a small upstairs room in his shop in Caerphilly, Wales. Minutes after the delicacies were ready for sale, they were brought downstairs for lucky visitors. This year, Hughes and his wife Susan moved their company into a 1,100 sq ft unit and increased their number of employees to five. They had to prepare for a large production increase after agreeing to supply forty-three Tesco stores with 12,000 chocolate bars a week. It’s the first time Castle Chocolates has agreed to sell their bars in a larger store.
