The Lemon Tree Bakery If you suffer from any allergies please contact me and I am more than happy to provide a list of all I am a single mum of two children who loves making cakes.

I began making cakes for friends and family about 4 yrs ago and set up the lemon tree bakery in February 2012

I specialise in wedding cakes and also teach various baking courses. I am based in southport. I hold a valid Food Hygiene Certificate and also have public liability insurance - I have a 5 star 'scores on the doors' rating

I do not advertise my business anywhere as I prefer to gain al

l my custom via word of mouth recommendations. All the photo's pictured are my own work, and if I have taken inspiration from another cake maker I will always give them credit in the comments thread. Thank you for taking the time to 'like' my page and if you have any questions please message me or write on the wall.

Ok so here goes ;
This is the first time I’ve offered a free from Friday and I have no idea if it will be a success or not , but I’ve baked loads ….and if no one comes it’s fine, as I’ll be eating it all lol 🤣

Everything has been baked today so is fresh, and is labelled with prices and list of ingredients - where I have used GF biscuits, GF crisps, GF flour, GF rice puffs etc I haven’t listed every single ingredient on the labels as I just don’t have room on the stickers but I do have a full list of ingredients should anyone wish to see them ! Everything is gluten and wheat free and I’m just hoping people like having the opportunity to have some home baking for once …. I know since being gluten free I’m already sick of shop bought dry cakes !

If you like what you buy please tell your friends, I have worked on word of mouth for fifteen years now and call me old fashioned, but I much prefer it to social media reviews ( at least when someone tells you in person you know it’s true and they haven’t been given free stuff just to say nice things 🤪) and if you don’t like anything please tell me ….. I am trying my best to come up with new ideas to keep the business afloat, so Id much rather get the opportunity to put things right than wake up to a witch hunt on FB 🥲 ( can you tell how nervous I am with this GF lark lol )

So tomorrow the cake cupboard is open 8-8 ( or until sell out if lots of people come )
I’ve tried my best to keep my prices as low as possible, but oh my days the cost of GF ingredients is ridiculous ….. but tomorrow everything in the cupboard is £3 or under !!!
I just want to test the waters to see if this is a viable option for the business moving forward !
There is a black box on the wall, lift the lid and you will see a money slot for cash ( sorry it’s locked so theres no way to get change )

GLUTEN FREE FRIDAY !!!

Last weekends cake cupboard was so quiet, so I’ve had a little think and have decided that this week I am going to try something new ….

The cake cupboard will only be open tomorrow FRIDAY …. and it will be a free from Friday ! I have never offered gluten free products as I’ve never been able to afford to provide a separate area for gluten free baking, however this week i have decided to offer ONLY a gluten free bakes, which means the whole kitchen is gluten free.

I am now gluten free myself, bored of food so wanted to treat myself , never mind anyone else 😂

Allergies and food intolerances are really serious and I never wanted to risk cross contamination, so by ensuring that no gluten is being used in the kitchen today, I can bake purely gluten free !

I’ve always found GF bakes and cakes to be dry or just lacking something , so I decided if I was going to try this, I wanted to make sure the cakes were good, so a massive thank you to the lovely Helen at mother duckers bakery who gave me a masterclass in GF baking! I’ve been trialling recipes for a few weeks now and have given family members cakes to try and no one has even realised they are gluten free !

So tomorrow I’m really happy to announce the cake cupboard will be ONLY offering GF bakes. Not sure if there will be any interest, but if you don’t try you don’t know eh! So if you know anyone who is struggling for GF treats, please let them know, tag a GF friend and spread the word ……. if it is a flop I won’t offer GF again, so as the saying goes ‘use us or lose us’

I will post first thing with what’s available but there will be sweet and savoury GF treats all day! please help spread the word as I’d love to offer this on a regular basis ❤️ I am based in Marshside, Southport

*** Made using gluten-free ingredients in a kitchen where no gluten products have been used during preparation. However, this is not a dedicated gluten-free kitchen ***

So sorry the cake cupboard will be closed this weekend !

Its the Southport food and drink festival this whole weekend and last year it meant a huge loss …… I wasted so many hours baking, spent so much money on ingredients and then had to giveaway so many cakes as everyone was at the food and drink festival ….. it’s just not worth it and I can’t afford to lose more money I’m sorry !

I’ve also been in hospital again this week - a huge thank you to the wonderful staff at Ormskirk Hospital MDU especially Brenda and Louise for looking after me so well ! I’m back in again next week for more treatment so I’m using this time to just soak up the sunshine whilst it lasts and have a rest.

Im currently also being investigated for Celiac Disease … so I’m going to use the time this weekend whilst the kitchen isn’t in use, to try out some GF bakes - just incase I have to have a lifestyle upheaval 😉 … so watch this space !

Hope everyone has a lovely weekend, think we may pop down to the food festival tomorrow for a little nosy if the weather stays warm 🤪 so may bump into a few of you there !

Thinking of all of the girls who aren’t named but still living daily with what happened ❤️❤️❤️
