ABOUT US

HANNAH RICHES - Co-founder

Favourite cupcake flavour: chocolate - do you really need to ask?!

Favourite spot in Caversham: well it is of course now Make & Do - but over the past 3 years it has been mucking about with my two daughters at Westfield Park

Favourite holiday: honeymoon in 2007 - a posh week at Burgh Island in Devon followed by a much more down-to-earth week spent in a two man tent in Cornwall. Lovely weather - and the company was not too bad either!

Worst vice: FX channel - I love it!

I am inspired by .... my mum - I hope she would be proud of what Holly & I are doing with the business

At the weekends you will find me.....at the airport en route to a mini break - oh I wish! No - I will actually be at the supermarket, at the park or putting out the washing

LISA DURRANT - Workshop Assistant / Tutor

Favourite cupcake flavour: Chocolate and Hazelnut

Favourite Spot in Caversham: By the river, in the summer, with an ice cream or two

Favourite Holiday: I have two favourite holidays, the first being Venice. The architecture was beautiful, the weather much better than here, and lots of yummy food! The second was a tour of Romania, trekking through the mountains. A lot of hard work but the scenery was stunning and the people so friendly, it was totally worth it

Worst Vice: Collecting old buttons and bits of jewellery- I have far too much I'm never going to use, but I just can't get rid of it, I'm becoming a bit of a magpie

I am inspired by...old manor houses. I love visiting national trust houses, where everything was made with such skill and craft that is quite often lost. The quality, care, and uniqueness inspires me to create something you'd never be able to buy in a high street shop.

At the weekends you will find me.....screen printing, baking and going on trips to the seaside!
