Britain's Best Bakery

Thursday 1st May 2014, 7.30pm
Venue: Browsers Bookshop
Tickets: £6 including samples of the winning recipes to try

The Cake Shop, Woodbridge, was named Britain's Best Bakery in a recent national tv competition. Brother and sister, David and Lindsay Wright now feature in a book to accompany the programme.

To launch the book and to tell us about the experience of being tv stars, they visited Browsers armed with the most fantastic pastries for us to try.

This long-standing and much-loved family business is now run by the siblings who were asked to take part in the tv competition. They confessed to wanting to pull out on many occasions as the demands of keeping the shop open as well as filming took its toll.

Peter said that people thought him very cool and calm on camera but he said he was so tired, he often wasn't quite sure what was going on.

Lindsay remembered the last day's filming when she had to make sugar paste flowers for a wedding cake decoration. She had never done them before but resolved to follow instructions from a book, and a chance meeting with the book's author the night before the competition gave her the confidence to give it a go. And win!
