re: Running a cake business during the school holidays

Ellie / June and Michelle,

thanks for your posts, I am trying to be a little more organised with my time. I know this year especially is a bit unique as we have moved house so lots of things to get done which in coming years will disappear. The boys are brilliant they understand why Mummy is making cakes and that the extra money helps towards treats for the family. I think for the next few years I am happy to take fewer orders. I don’t really make many birthday cakes as most of my customers are wedding cakes or anniversary cakes so I have never had more than three orders a month. The orders I do get a rather complicated and large so I tend to focus on them one at a time.
thanks ladies, its just good to know I’m not alone in trying to juggle everything!
