The new bakery called Braesyde’s Puddns opens this Saturday March 5.

Run by young entrepreneur Lily Braesyde, she started her business three years ago reinvigorating it last year in its current form. Her signature traybakes, cookies, cupcakes and celebration cakes have attracted a super loyal fan base via pop-ups and online sales, but Lock29 is her first permanent store.

Everything will be made from scratch onsite in Lock29.

Lily said: “I have always loved baking from an early age, it allows me to be really creative. This is such an amazing opportunity and I am very excited about it.”
