Sound familiar?

01

You bake first, then post it on Instagram and hope someone buys it before it goes stale.

02

Custom orders eat every evening and weekend, and there's no clear direction to your business.

03

You're busy, but the money's unpredictable, so it never quite feels like a real business.

Why you can trust this

I started The Cake Tasting Club after gifting my Granny a chocolate subscription.

I remember thinking, this could work with cake. I'd baked since I was a child, in a house where the cake tin was never empty. So I started small, under 10 subscribers, and grew it from there.

Ten years on, I've done almost every version of this business. A school kitchen at weekends. Staff and premises, all the way to over 1,000 subscribers during lockdown. And then I burned out. Costs I couldn't keep up with, stress at an unsustainable level.

Now I run it from home with my sister, on a streamlined model: "all orders are in by the 15th, so we only ever buy what we need. No waste, no guessing."

672 portions

What people actually say about The Cake Tasting Club

I am so proud to still have one of my very first subscribers who has been with me for ten years, and I regularly receive lovely reviews from my customers.

My mum, now 96, continues to love her cake delivery. It makes Christmas and birthday presents so easy.

Perfect size treats, I enjoyed every single one. Apart from the one I gave my sister, and she's now subscribed too.

BEFORE YOU BUY

Questions people ask

I haven't started my subscription box yet, is this still for me?

Yes. The guide is built to take you from idea to launch, covering pricing, packaging, food safety registration and your first month, so you're not guessing at any of it.

I've already launched, will this still help?

Yes. Many home bakers launch without working out their real costs or a sustainable production schedule first. The workbook and profit calculator are built to help you fix pricing and process even after you've started.

Do I need to be VAT registered or a big business for this to apply to me?

No. Everything here is written for home bakers and small kitchen businesses, based on running a real UK subscription box from a home setup.

What if I'm not confident with spreadsheets?

The profit calculator just needs your numbers typed in, it does the maths for you. No formulas or spreadsheet experience needed.

Is this a one-off read or something I'll come back to?

Most people use the workbook and calculator monthly, since it's built to guide ongoing decisions like pricing and production, not just the initial launch.

How is this different from free advice on Instagram or forums?

It's a complete, structured resource rather than scattered tips, and it's based specifically on a real UK subscription box that's run for over ten years, not general small business advice.

Does this work for US businesses?

Yes. I am in the UK and therefore that is where my experience lies. However, the ideas can all be used to run a successful baking business anywhere in the world.

Is this specific to cake subscriptions?

No. This isn't a guide to running The Cake Tasting Club. It's the subscription model that's kept it running for 10 years, broken down so you can apply it to whatever you bake, cookies, brownies, biscuits, bread, anything that works as a recurring box.

Can I buy from outside the UK?

Yes. Prices are in pounds, and your bank converts them automatically at checkout. £27 is about $36 USD.

Does it cover packaging and letterbox postage?

Yes. Chapter 5 covers choosing packaging that survives the post, testing it before you launch, and weighing your packed box against Royal Mail’s postage tiers so a few extra grams don’t eat your profit. The workbook has a box planning template to record your sizes, suppliers and cost per box.
The guide doesn’t give one set letterbox size, because the right box depends on what you bake. If you want to promise more than this, tell me what it covers on letterbox sizing specifically.
