Happy 4th Birthday !! And now we are four ! Humble Bumble Bakes celebrates four years of trading with another successful year. The pandemic added it's own challenges but despite this the business continued to grow and flourish. Orders increased with some interesting, Covid related, twists like a shift to smaller but more numerous orders for cupcakes rather than larger celebration cakes. To mark the incredible people who have been so supportive during these difficult times we asked our Facebook followers to nominate someone special who deserved a treat so, amongst all the key workers, carers and home schoolers we made the tough decision to present a treat box to each of the three lucky recipients but, becasue it was so hard to pick the winners, we also delivered smaller gifts to others who were also so deserving. Once again it has been a pleasure to deliver our quality cakes, bakes and biscuits to add to your celebrations so thank you to all our customers, suppliers, friends and family for your business, encouragement and support  

1st February 2022

Humble Bumble Bakes have completed five years of trading and continue to grow from strength to strength with more orders coming into the hive despite the continuing effects of the pandemic. To celebrate our birthday which conincided with the arrival of our latest product, the geometric biscuit, we invited followers to nominate their favourite biscuit flavour with the winner reciving a geometric biscuit in their choice of flavour. As always we would like to thank our many customers, suppliers, friends and family who continue to support our business with orders and encouragement  

1st February 2023

It's hard to believe that Humble Bumble Bakes have been trading for six years and we have loved every minute. The business continues to flourish and we seem to have survived the effects of the pandemic and the hive is buzzing. To celebrate this year's birthday we turned our hand to the latest craze in the bakery world, the cartoon cake (see our Facebook page and below) with a bee cake that we gave away to one lucky recipient, a loyal customer. We are always looking to innovate so please come back and see our latest product lines and place your orders so we can continue to provide you with our delicious cakes, bakes and biscuits for your celebrations. In the meantime, and as always, everyone in the hive would like to thank our many customers, suppliers, friends and family who continue to show their support for our business with orders and encouragement
