A sweet treats firm is expanding into a new space after outgrowing the home kitchen where it was founded.

Molly Davison, 28, owns and operates MOO's Cakes in the Lowestoft area which she started at the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic. 

What started as a hobby in her kitchen soon grew into an expanding business and Molly decided she needed more space.

"I have been baking from home for the last year or two which has been great but I have now slowly outgrown my house and so I decided it was time to open my own premises," she said.

"I didn't want the commitment of a whole shop so this is a space where I can bake all of my orders for people to pick up from and prepare for my cake stalls and markets."

The new premises, located in Mobbs Way in Oulton Broad, will be used for customers to pick up orders from today and to host once-monthly pop-up sales.

She added: "I'm planning to have a cake counter on the last Friday of each month where people can come and purchase treats to take home.

"If this is successful I will then do a few more days a month and go from there. I cannot wait."

Molly said if the demand is there, she would love to open a dedicated shop in the area, using her Mobbs Way kitchen as a hub.
