Umhlanga's Home Baked

Umhlanga's Home Baked

Date: 2015-02-20

Val Claus the successful home industry entrepreneur has moved from a prosperous business in the Berea into her new busy Umhlanga rocks drive premises.

After 20 of being part of a home industry co-op Val decided to venture out on her own and invited her friend Bernice Walker as a partner. Who also has 15 years experience in the Berea shop.

"I decided to open this store after so many years of doing it for someone else." Val told The Bugle. "After all those years I reached the stage where I had enough confidence to do the business myself."

Val buys cakes from twenty-three bakers from around the Durban area. With Val's help bakers who normally would not have the opportunity to make extra cash are doing a roaring trade.Val knows all about the home industry. She has been successful with her own cakes and in the Berea store she baked up to six hundred cakes a month.

Home Baked is a convenient yummy store, which stocks sweet and savoury bakes. Quiches, pies, biscuits, tarts, cakes, scones and muffins. Val's selection is impressive.

From colourful cupcakes by Tracy to beautiful home made gourmet treat gift boxes by Joani. A quick visit is all it takes to indulge yourself in a fantasy of home baked goodies. Visit Val at 175 Umhlanga Rocks Drive.
