Manchester has been turning heads this week as Fashion Week returned to the city for the first time in a decade, and here at our coffee shop, we’re taking inspiration from the vibrant, colourful, and creative energy of the event. Just as designers like Drew Kent and Nadine Merabi are showing that the North of England has style, our team of bakers has been bringing flair and flavour to this week’s cakes!
The cakes that are strutting their stuff on our very own runway this week:
🍰👗 Diane’s Victoria sponge cake – classic and elegant, a timeless staple.
☕️💼 Diane’s coffee & walnut cake – sophisticated and bold, perfect for powering through your day.
🍋🎀 Jackie’s lemon drizzle cake – bright, zesty, and full of personality.
🍫✨ Jackie’s chocolate cake – rich, indulgent, and undeniably glamorous.
🥕👜 Nicki’s carrot cake – layered and textured, celebrating detail and craftsmanship.
🍒👒 Nicki’s bakewell loaf – sweet, refined, and full of surprises, reminiscent of a playful runway outfit.
🌰👠 Sarah’s almond cookies – delicate yet striking, like the perfect finishing touch to an ensemble.
🍏🧣 Sarah’s apple and cinnamon cake – warm, comforting, and full of character.
😋💚 Sue’s pistachio & lemon cake – a bold colour-block of nutty green and citrusy yellow, worthy of a front-row seat.
🍊✨ Sue’s clementine & almond cake (GF ingredients) – zesty and naturally chic, the haute-couture take on non-gluten-friendly indulgence.
Just like Manchester Fashion Week proves you don’t need London to shine, our cakes show that creativity and care can turn something simple into something spectacular. Stop by for a slice, a coffee, and a little runway-worthy magic on every plate!
