Ep 32: Layers of Cake, Connection & Community, with Esther Bullock
Esther Bullock started The Goldfinch Kitchen to showcase her talent for creating honest, natural and delicious cakes and patisserie. A former HR professional, Esther started her venture after having her two children, when she turned her passion for baking with natural ingredients into a thriving and successful business. Based in the heart of Surrey, she is renowned for her unique and artistic wedding and celebration cakes, and is a highly commended finalist in the Surrey Life Food & Drinks Awards, a finalise in The Family Network Best New Business Awards, and she has delivered more than three hundred cakes to a wealth of happy recipients! This conversation has a beautiful energy to it, and it was wonderful to hear Esther’s joy and passion flow as she talked about creating delectable cakes for special occasions, and I loved hearing about all the layers of connection that occur in her work. This business is personal and the unique experience Esther offers is something very special indeed. Enjoy the show!
