Sugar Skulls & Cream, born out of a mother's passion for baking, started as a birthday cake venture for one child and quickly grew into a thriving business.
You can catch business owner, Andrea Hughes, at Curated In The Quad from December 1st to 3rd, where she will be serving the finest coffee, traybakes, blondies, brownies, and stuffed cookies with tempting toppings like Biscoff, Oreo, and more.
We caught up with Andrea to find out more about Sugar Skulls & Cream and her delicious bakes she will be selling at Curated In The Quad.
WHO IS BEHIND SUGAR SKULLS & CREAM?
Can you tell us more about you and why you set up the company?
The business started making one of my four children a birthday cake and a suggestion that it was too good to keep to only kids birthdays. I started getting requests from friends then this became friends of friends and before long the business was born. I enjoyed making something that made people so happy and could fit around my busy family (4 kids!). I finally took the leap earlier this year and expanded, starting up a café and cake shop where I could experiment with new products and meet more customers face to face.
Can you tell us about the products you are selling at Curated In The Quad?
The best coffee and traybakes. Blondies and brownies with a whole variety of toppings as well as our much-loved stuffed cookies. Look out for toppings and stuffings of Biscoff, Oreo, white chocolate, triple chocolate, white chocolate raspberry, apple and cinnamon and red velvet. We can also take orders for bespoke celebration cakes through the festive season.
Why did you decide to take part in this year’s Curated In The Quad?
As a relatively new business I want to reach out to more people and show them what we have to offer at an event that brings families and the city together. And on a cold evening nothing is better than a hot drink and warm bake.
What are you looking forward to at Curated In The Quad?
I have visited this event in previous years and loved it. I cannot wait to be a part of it and add to the atmosphere.
What’s your message to people coming to Curated In The Quad?
Come eat drink and be merry with our wonderful range of sweet treats all to yourself or boxed up to gift to loved ones and friends.
