Nice to meet you!

I'm Laura and I'm the owner of Laura's Little Cupcake Company! I've been running my business for 5 years now but have loved baking for a long time. I thought it was about time I introduced myself and told you a bit more about the person behind the business!

So, this is me...

I think it is important to say that 99% of the time I do not look like this when I am baking..I am not the messiest baker but am definitely also not the tidiest!

I have always loved baking, even when I was little. The first recipes that I can remember making with my mum are lemon drizzle loaf cake, rock cakes and butterfly cakes, (I think this is because I always used to love the decorating and these looked properly decorated!)

For my 18th birthday my mum took me on a cupcake decorating class and we created these beauties!

It was the best day and I wanted to carry on and make more cupcakes as soon as we got home! From then we built up a portfolio of cake photos, baked for friends and family and worked towards turning our passion into a business which I'm so proud of.

7 years on and I have learnt to make wedding cakes, sugar flowers, macarons and all sorts of other pretty things that I never thought I would be able to make!

I hope this blog helps you to get to know me a bit better! I'll aim to post lots of recipe ideas and inspiration to help fill the time we all have stuck inside at the moment!
