Having your cake and eat it.
Ever wanted a cake and thought "What's in this?". Well fear no more, local veggie Sarah Kearney has started supplying her own home made truly veggie & vegan cakes, also gluten-free are available. With a nursing background, Sarah started her home baking business "Buttercupcakes" on the Wirral this year, specialising in restricted diets, including gluten free, no added sugar, dairy free, and vegan cakes. Sarah is also about to start making wedding and celebration cakes to order.
Latest from Sarah:-
Just to let you know I have a new Wirral outlet for my cakes. I have started to supply The Greenhouse Tea Room & Village Delicatessen Christchurch Rd Oxton CH43 5SF. 0151 670 1440 . The Greenhouse is a lovely friendly specialist food shop in Oxton village Birkenhead. They currently stock my vegan fruit cake, and jam tarts .They also stock my gluten free raspberry, orange, cherry, and carrot cakes and dairy free range. I will be supplying them with vegan Christmas cakes, mince pies and puddings from November onwards.
So there you go folks, go on and support a local business especially for veggies & vegans.

I'm pleased to confirm that the group has a current membership and been affiliated with the Vegetarian Society and can enjoy the benefits from that, including a listing in their local groups pages. Information leaflets on various aspects of being a Veggie are now available to the Group from VegSoc so let me know if you have any needs and I will see if they are listed.
