Caroline is the one who puts the icing on the cake

Cakes by Caroline B

-

Caroline Bell’s business – Cakes By Caroline B - has organicall­y grown from starting out in her kitchen at home 14 years ago after she had moved to Ireland with her husband.

“My initial interest was in cake decorating, which was a complete departure from working in a high profile corporate role,” says Caroline.

Having started at home, the business soon outgrew the space and Caroline eventually had to build her own purpose built premises.

While she predominan­tly supplies locally, she also deals internatio­nally with brides to be. “Over the years I have been awarded bronze, silver, gold and best in class awards internatio­nally for my skill in sugarcraft, a skill which distinguis­hes me from many other cake makers,” she says.

Having an understand­ing of customer service and marketing has helped her enormously in running a successful business, enabling her to set up, design and manage her own website, which has been invaluable.

“I never dreamt when I initially started my cake journey that it would take me so far, its creativity is a constant challenge which I love,” she says.

“I enjoy creating every day novelty cakes for every day people and don’t see that changing.”
