the cake business transformation programme
Elevate your cake business, turning your passion into profit in an intimate, supportive group setting
Embark on my
12-Month Cake Business Transformation Programme, a journey designed not just to educate but to transform.
Running a cake business can be hard. It's uniquely challenging.
Unfulfilling bookings, ghosting leads, an isolated work environment, a million things to do, no time to do it in - and none of it taking you closer to your goals.
I know that it's confusing, overwhelming and lonely.
This transformative programme provides the solution to that (and much more) by offering an intimate, small group setting that also brings the personalised attention of one-on-one coaching
- never have enough time for your family, hobbies and chilling out❌
- feel undervalued by clients and ghosting leads❌
- feel overshadowed by others' successes on social media ❌
- are confused about what to do to achieve your goals ❌
- are experiencing a lack of bookings (or the bookings you really want!) ❌
let me guess, right now you...
'RISE' is meticulously crafted to take you TO...
- Having a happy balance in your work that gives you more time to enjoy your life✅
- Feeling appreciated and valued by your clients✅
- Feeling content in your cake business and achieving your version of success. ✅
- Feeling clear and confident in your business strategy ✅
- A diary filling up with bookings you desire ✅
Let's face it, you invest a lot into your cake skills, but achieving true success requires investing just as much, if not more, into business skills. The reality is, you can’t have one without the other.
There will come a time when you just can't put off investing in your business know-how any longer.
Snippets of advice and short-term fixes only go so far.
What you need is something more substantial—a programme that offers depth, understanding, and the tools for lasting transformation. And that is exactly what this programme is designed to provide.
"I've been in several paid memberships over the years, but this is the first time I felt like I was working with an industry expert - someone who runs a business I aspire to, that has had huge success over many years, and knows the luxury cake sector inside out...."

CATHERINE PARSONS, PHOTOGRAPHER
✔️ You're skilled in cake design but currently lack the solid business strategies to fulfil your potential
✔️ You're willing to put the work in, you just need to know what to do - and accountability to stay on track
✔️ You're struggling with confidently pricing your cakes or communicating their value to potential clients
✔️ You find handling objections and turning scepticism into sales daunting
✔️ You value personalised guidance and support in a small, friendly group setting - rather than the same information in memberships where you're lost in the crowd
THIS IS FOR YOU IF...
❌You're looking for quick fixes rather than being prepared to engage in a comprehensive, year-long journey of growth.
❌The idea of participating in a community of like-minded business owners for support and shared learning doesn't appeal to you.
❌You expect immediate results without the effort or application of new strategies and insights
❌You aren't open to exploring new ways of doing business
THIS IS NOT FOR YOU IF...
"Working with you has been one of the most beneficial things I've done for my business..."
