Hi All,

The time has come for me to hang up my apron and say a final farewell to the cafe & all the lovely people I have come to know in the Business centre over the years.

To be honest I don’t really know where to start, other than to say a massive thank you to everyone that has help make my time & journey in this wonderful place of ours, one that I will cherish & remember for ever…..It has been so much more than just a job for me. ❤️

At least you’ll no longer have to put up with me harassing you lovely people out of your hard earned cash for yet another bake off 😁…….but I sincerely thank you all for your generosity & support in raising awarwness & funds for some amazing causes.

Thou I reckon whomever is unlucky enough to take over from ME ☺️ needs to have a bake off clause written in their contract…. I’ll let you discuss that with Emma🤪

I have formed so many great relationships with so many wonderfully weird people over the last last 9 1/2 years (gutted I didn’t make 10) that you really have become my family.

Finally, apologies to everyone who was once a new customer, if my face didn’t paint a thousand words I’m pretty sure my tongue was sharp enough. 😂😘

I will still be doing Christmas brownies for those who asked and for anyone one else who is interested … send me a message with your order 🎄🎅🏼

My final day will be Friday 26th September but I hope to keep in touch with you all & will be back whenever I can to sit the other side of the counter & catch up over a cuppa

Love Mel’s cafe. ❤️

We’re less than two weeks away from Mel’s Cafe Annual Fundraising Bake Off — and things are heating up in the kitchen and in the raffle pot!

🏆 Top prize: A brand new 55” TV!
