A woman from Lincoln has been earning universal acclaim for her elaborate cake-baking skills, winning awards at Cake International and running her own YouTube tutorial channel for aspiring bakers.
Their business took on a different role as life changed for the couple. Their son was born in 2019, meaning Lauren had a year off work on maternity leave, and then the COVID-19 pandemic hit shortly after. Lauren said: “Cakes are just my personal interest, many clients have similar design ideas so my YouTube channel allows for me to be as creative as possible. I’ve always been drawn to the creative element of baking cakes.”
Lauren’s mesmerising horror-inspired sweet treat sculpture, named Edward, took over two months to create and came with lights and even screaming noises, giving the judges at the Cake International a scare!‘Edward’ comes with an accessory: a half-eaten rat. | Photo: Steve Smailes for The Lincolnite Lauren said she used to speak to Edward while creating him, though he didn’t speak back much! | Photo: Steve Smailes for The LincolniteThe giant Edward cake was not the only design to earn Lauren a prize though. She was also given recognition in the form of a bronze award and a merit for her doll’s house cake and the spooky pumpkin design too.

They’re just jealous of his 400 grand payday
