The Sugarcraft Junkies

October is Black History Month in the UK, so we thought we’d talk about diversity in the Cake Industry. It’s a massive subject and we only really have time here to skim the surface. Where are we falling down, what could we do better, and who should have a higher profile than they do? With the big cake show Cake International moving online this year, there hasn’t been much in the way of new things, but Sam and Erica have plenty of ideas for products scattered across the episode! If you do take any of these products further, be sure to send us a freebie 😊
