You may remember from a few blogs ago, that for a long time I felt a little lost and disconnected from my brand. So about a month ago I decided to move all our social media over to my personal page and completely stop using a separate Ridiculously Rich page. I really wanted to show that the “by Alana” part of the business was very important to me.  More...

One of my favourite parts of any wedding is the cake. I love how many different styles, tastes and decorations there can be, and how personal it is to the couple. After the exciting announcement of the Royal Wedding, and the delicious sounding cake they have chosen, I desperately wanted to create a one off cake to mark the occasion. More...

Happy national honesty day!! There really is a day for everything these days! Reading through a list online I chose the ones that most resonated with me. National honesty day was one of them. One thing I most certainly am is honest, and this isn’t me blowing my own trumpet, as my friends and family will tell you, sometimes it’s a curse. More...

Tea and cake. Is there any better combination? If you know me, you will know that I am a die-hard Earl Grey fan and think it goes with everything! However, in preparation for the National Tea Day on the 21st of April, we have been educating ourselves on all things tea, to come up with the perfect pairing for our Ridiculously Rich Cakes! So grab a cuppa, a slice of cake and take a look at these delicious flavours! More...

This year we sadly lost a very important member of our family, Fergus, so this Christmas I wanted to share my favourite and funniest Christmas memory that involves this loveable pup! More...

The show we all know and love, The Apprentice, has returned to our screens a year later and is now on week two. It feels completely bizarre watching all the new hopefuls, experiencing the nerves, panic and excitement I did last year, but I can’t say I envy them, I am very glad to be watching from my sofa this time around!

Now that I am lucky enough to have my wonderful team of Ambassadors attending events across the country and selling our yummy cakes, I actually managed to attend a show and visit everyone else’s stalls instead of being behind one. The whole family went to Tysoe Flower Show & Fete, and what a day we had! More...

Well it's that time of year again; time to pop the kettle on, grab the biscuit tin (or a slice of cake!) and settle down for another series of The Great British Bake Off! With all the exciting and tricky recipes, especially how daring the showstoppers can get, this is a TV series I eagerly look forward to every year. More...
