I make viral fast food ‘cupfakes’ — they’re so popular that I’m fully booked until 2026
BAKER Ashley Calder shows off her cupfakes — cake versions of fast food favourites.
The treats cost £75 for 12 — but are so popular Ashley is fully booked until 2026.
Ashley, 38, of Edinburgh, said: “All the wee mini food things seem to be going viral at the minute online.
“People started saying ‘is there any chance you can make mini food’ and it just hit off.
“I guess people like anything that’s miniature, I know I’m like that.
“I’m like, ‘oh my god, it’s so cute’, because it’s small.
“Since then, everyone asks for ‘favourite things’ cupcakes, so they’ll send me a list of their boyfriends’ favourite foods and I will make them.
“I always loved baking and cooking and making things look pretty.
“I worked for a catering company all the way through high school and university, and I did all the canapes and stuff there.
“But I didn’t really think it could be a real life job until now.

“I was too scared to just do this in case I wouldn’t be busy enough, but it seems to have just taken off.
“It’s so weird that I just make cakes from my kitchen and it’s just taken off.”
