Oh dear, Courtney, you might not think Jessica is an expert in branding if you had seen her appalling website

£3 for a slice of cake is ludicrous, even in London. Alana's consistency won her the 250k, not her business (plan) |

So how is Alana expecting to produce enough products and deliver them daily to 100s of shops around the country? Isn't she currently only selling to "captive" buyers at festivals and the like, with a lot less potential competition.

Yes, it's one of the reasons why he can pay himself just £8k per year.

He's still going to lose a lot more, once Brexit kicks in. The invention is safer in the long run.

She has been nice. Also has a lot of commonsense and has been under-estimated by the others
I haven't read back too far in this thread so sorry if it's been covered but I really couldn't see what was so wonderful about Courtney's baby bottle? It looked horrible and not a word about the materials it was made from being safe for babies etc etc ... if someone had bought that for one of my kids when they were young it would have been in the nearest bin as soon as they were out the door! I think it was supposed to be more of a toddler sippy cup? But because Courtney kept using the word 'baby' it made it unclear. |

Thanks for the responses ^
Interesting, I thought £2 was roughly the going rate and I live in an expensive part of the country. I wouldn't pay £2 let alone £3 no matter how nice a pithy slice of cake tasted. I am more out of touch than I thought

But they wouldn't be fresh, so ordering them now isn't a good idea. If anyone want a cake then why not go out and buy them, really easy to do, as even petrol station sells cakes and buns, and other stuff. Ordering cakes online is a load of crap!

£3 for a slice of cake is ludicrous, even in London. Alana's consistency won her the 250k, not her business (plan) Even on Ocado you get cakes costing upwards of £10 a £10 for a cheesecake, £18 for an xmas pudding and so on. It may seem expensive, but people really do pay this. There is definitely a market. |
