According to the Modern Milkman, Little Blonde Bakes “is one of the sweetest success stories in the Manchester bakery scene.” Pun intended, one visit to this bake tray full of colour makes you realise just how tasty the operation is. Founded in 2016 by mother-daughter duo Fran and Jayne, who were originally working from a small kitchen in their house, they were an immediate hit with friends and family, word spread, and eventually they had to make the decision — go big, or stop baking things at home. Circa 2018, they relocated to a dedicated site in Bury and set to making even more brownie batter.

In terms of Little Blonde Bakes baked offerings, the idea is pretty simple — reimagined, reenergised, and undoubtedly elevated. That means cornflake tarts, chocolate old school cake (capped with 100s and 1000s), lemon old school cake, and Milkybar Party Ring cookie dough blondie. And that’s just for starters. Dentists on high alert, you’ll also find cherry bakewell blondie roll, Galaxy Caramel brownie rolls, Oreo and Dairy Milk and red velvet cheesecake brownies, Kinder, Nutella & Oreo cake, and chocolate fudge slices on offer.
The list could go on, but you probably get the point. Customers online and IRL can build their own blondie box from the full range, prices dependent on quantity and variety. Little Blonde Bakes also specialises in fully bespoke creations, including wedding cakes, heart cakes and cupcakes, snack cakes and trays. Or, if you fancy something unique, opt for a Stakks dipping board. As it sounds, this involves some of the best oven fresh treats money can buy in Greater Manchester, alongside some sugary sauces. A royal version of dunking, if ever we found one. A true institution and one of the most beloved cake specialists in the region, it’s no surprise to see the size of the loyal customer base.
