My Baking Journey

Are you a baker? Do you run your own cake business? Ever wonder if you're going about it the right way? Or perhaps you're thinking of taking the plunge and looking for an alternative to that career you're getting tired of? If so, this podcast is for you! We sit down with some of the brightest stars in the baking world. Chatting about how they got into baking, why they love it, and why some days it's the last thing they want to do. It's about what drives them, what makes them successful, and how they manage their day to be a star baker. It's not all rainbows and flowers though. As you'll hear, these bakers have worked hard and pushed through some trying times to create the magic they do in the kitchen. This isn't about baking tips, but more about finding ways to build your business, get customers, grow your social media, and look for inspiration. Our guests have pretty much been through it all at this point so come along for the ride and enjoy this podcast from your friends at OLBAA.Who is OLBAA? We make the best packaging for bakers around. From tall cake boxes to luxurious cupcake boxes, we strive to develop packaging for bakers designed by bakers. Learn more at www.olbaa.shop

My Baking Journey

E10 - Finch Bakery - The story of Finch told for the first time! They were told it just wouldn't work. So how did they make Finch the brand they are today?

March 06, 2023 • OLBAA • Season 2 • Episode 2

This week we’re talking to one of our most requested bakers to interview for this podcast - Finch Bakery - Rachel and Lauren, twin sisters who started this journey just over 10 years ago have built a well-known UK bakery bakery in the North West of England. Throughout this journey, it's amazing to see how they have stayed humble, true to themselves, and so transparent during the whole process.

If you want to know what it takes, and I mean what it TRULY takes in those first years of running a business, you must give this one a listen. It’s just not something you can learn in a business degree. You need to hear it from Rachel and Lauren. The hours, the hard work, and the desire to stay in it loving what you do even if you’re spending 18 hours a day on it. This… is genuine entrepreneurship.
This is a bit longer than most of our usual episodes, but we’re talking to two people not one so there’s a bit more to say! Stay with us as the untold story of Finch Bakery is about to be heard for the first time. Enjoy…
