Meet the Maker - ✨Afternoon Delights ✨
My name is Dawn, and I am the owner of a bespoke baking business founded in Essex nine years ago and proudly continued in Fort William following our move nearly two years ago.
When I first launched the business, I was working in a nursery while baking in my spare time. During lockdown, demand for my homemade sweet treats grew rapidly, allowing me to leave my role and pursue my long-held dream of becoming a full-time baker.
At Afternoon Delights, we specialise in beautifully presented afternoon tea boxes, as well as offering vintage china hire for special occasions and events.
More recently, I have begun attending Glen Spean Markets and other local events alongside my husband, Kevin. These gatherings provide a wonderful opportunity to meet new people, support the local community, and showcase some of our most popular bakes, including our much-loved Empire biscuits, caramel shortbread, brownies, and cupcakes, to name just a few.
I also make traditional homemade Scottish tablet, which is now stocked by several local independent businesses in Fort William.
I look forward to meeting many more members of the community in the future. In the meantime, please feel free to visit our page, to see our latest creations and upcoming events.
