Meet volunteer Sally

Volunteer Sally lives in Norfolk Park, Sheffield. A volunteer with Free Cakes for Kids Sheffield for two years, we asked Sally why she enjoys volunteering.

"As a child I always got a home made birthday cake from my mum and still do so at the age of 34! It's nice to do that for a child who isn't as fortunate as myself. Plus I love to bake.

I had so many amazing cakes as a child it be hard to choose just one, but my top three most memorable are a hot air balloon cake, a Teddy bears picnic and a swimming pool one!"

Sally is pictured with her favourite of the many cakes she's made for children in Sheffield - "My Elsa from Frozen doll was fun - I enjoyed creating the cake dress around the doll."

Sally recommends a classic guide to baking, "When it comes to baking I'm obsessed with my Bible - the Be.ro Book! Nearly everything I bake starts out with a basic Be.ro recipe and the I just tweak it a bit depending on what I'm making. My favourite cake to eat is either Victoria sponge or carrot cake."
