introducing didie bakes, home made cakes


welcome to didie bakes.

this is the idea that stemmed from
my love for baking and cake decorating. i was born with a sweet tooth and has baked desserts since i can remember. and of course i learnt the ropes from the best - my mum - who believe the best cake is one made from scratch. at every opportunity i have you will find me most days working hard in the kitchen - cracking eggs, sifting flours and loading ovens! and i love every bits of this process!

although i am a devoted baker since the last 5 years, i
simply wasn't ready to abandon the reliable world of full-time-steady-income-job for the high-stakes game of just baking cakes (?). then nature call itself. i was pregnant and decided on a year sabbatical leave. in my mind, what could i do to occupy my usual busy life? of course, i can bake cakes and cookies for friends and family!

after receiving my bundle of joy, "sa" on nov. 26th 2008, being a mum is a life-changing and life-enhancing experience, but it's also an incredibly overwhelming one. i knew then what i wanted! i also knew that i was never going to be the type of power-suited working mum who left her babies with a nanny whilst she completed an eighty-hour week. i knew i'd have to find a part-time balance. even the thought of returning to work made my heart ache, so i knew a compromise had to be made.

so now i wish to stay home and spend every moment possible with my little one. my precious little! and this "baking cakes business" was just the outlet i needed!

with full support from friends and family, maybe, just maybe i can live my dream of running my own cake business! so could this be
my humble beginnings as a home-based business?
