Hi Alpa – Over the last few years I’ve discovered that time is so very precious when you have young kids. I’ve spent the last 2 or 3 summer holidays saying to my 2 boys “sorry, we can’t go anywhere today, because I have cakes to do”. After doing a carved handbag, a 70th birthday cake and a giant wedding cupcake with numerous cupcakes underneath in 10 days of intense heat (5 days in a row of 28c +) I said enough is enough!! So I do 1 or 2 orders throughout the Summer and that is all! It’s very hard to juggle cakes, kids, housework, husband and I also have an admin office job – so I actually look forward to a break during the heat and humidity in the summer. Listen to your doctor!!! I know of various cake makers that have had to stop completely due to stress, so ease off a little and enjoy the summer with your kids……cakes can wait!! 😀 xx
