Bakers cooking up new jobs in Cannock
A pastry chef and a baker in Cannock have teamed up to cook up bread and cakes for the community.
Kaye Le Page runs the popular tearoom Springslade Lodge, which she set up almost 20 years ago - and has recently joined forces with bread baker Colin Ball owner of ' Breaking Bread.'
The 54-year-old tearoom owner first met 49-year-old Colin, from Heath Hayes, when he popped into Springslade Lodge in search of new customers early this year.
"Colin makes his bread from a unit so people cant buy it direct so he supplies his delicious bread to Springslade Lodge who use it to present sandwiches of all types. We also sell small tin loaves to our customers.
"We add nothing artificial to our bread and cakes. We make gluten free cakes and scones too as many people nowadays are gluten intolerant and we stay very mindful of that here at Springslade Lodge."
The duo are also going to be organising bread and pastry workshops in the near future.
Kaye added that both companies was continuing to grow each day and that she and Colin were also on the lookout for new staff.
