Sweet success
Mouth-watering slices of chocolate cake, cookies and cheesecakes proved irresistible to the all-day queue at a new Arnold shop. When the Sweet House Bakery opened its doors at the weekend, sweet-toothed fans couldn't get enough of the delicious array and cleared them out.
Baking was a hobby that turned into a roaring success for Steffanie. After starting as an apprentice at Delilah Fine Foods, she went on to manage a bistro in Cornwall for three years before returning to Notts, where she ran the Old Flower Shop bar in Mapperley. "It was a very rough road. The condition when it gets bad is life-threatening but she's a little fighter and she's doing ok," said Steffanie, who began baking at home during lockdown as a hobby.
The tiny shop - there's standing room for around three customers at a squeeze - complements a cob shop next door. The range of traybakes includes Smarties cookie bars, Maltesers' rocky roads and Mint Aero chocolate brownies. Caramel Overload and birthday cake pots, cheesecakes, biscoff cookie pies and New York-style cookies are also proving popular with customers. Barista-style coffee, tea, hot chocolate and freakshakes are also available for takeaway.
Working together is going well, with each playing to their strengths - Steffanie baking and Mat's expertise on the marketing and sales side. He said: "We thought it may become a problem. You see each other all the time and people say you shouldn't work with your partner as it ruins everything but actually, we're been really brilliant."
