Last week I took a trip to London. Country mouse, that I am, I got in my car and made my way to the Make Awards. These are run annually by NotOnTheHighStreet.com and this year we were lucky enough to be shortlisted for the prestigious Innovation Award 2012 for our Cake Slice Club
After a morning of inspiring speakers, we were treated a lovely buffet lunch, with some delicious eton mess. Then it was time to sit down and ready ourselves for the awards. There were some truly amazing products including a champagne cork stool and the Stitch a Map postcard. The competition was inspiring and also made us realise what we had achieved to make it to the top three.
I really enjoyed the opportunity to meet with other sellers and to get out of the kitchen. Hearing other peoples' stories and how we all strive to go the extra mile warms the soul. Juggling your own business is an art in itself and one that I am still learning, picking up tips from others in the same position really helps. Unfortunately, we didn't win this year but we aren't down-hearted, just more determined than ever to give you something even more impressive for next year so watch this space...!
In the meantime, we are celebrating the best of being British with our new GB cake pops these are a limited edition item and only available from NotOnTheHighStreet.com. However, if you would like to order these for a party and require a larger quantity please contact us directly to arrange a discount.
