Meet the tutor!

We thought it was about time that we brought you a peek behind the scenes into our very special Revival tutors.

Introducing …. Becky! Becky is one of two cake tutors that teach for RC. She runs Baked By Becky and her specialist area is cupcakes.




We thought we’d drag her away from her baking for a cuppa and a few personal questions! 

RC: So Becky, why baking?

B: I have always enjoyed baking and have several great memories of baking days with my Mum where we would make all kinds of biscuits, cakes and tray-bakes. Having given up work 2 years ago after having my second child, I caught the baking bug again and proceeded to bake cupcakes for various friends, family and my husband to take into work for his colleagues. 

RC: When did you set up Baked By Becky?

B: Nearly a year ago after baking cupcakes for my daughter’s Christening, Baked By Becky was born! I started off with the odd order and before I knew it the business had gone from strength to strength. 

RC: What’s your best seller?

B: For pure indulgence the Rocky Road is a chocoholic’s dream but the most popular flavour by far is the simple but gorgeous vanilla cupcake.


RC: What’s your most novel request?

B: I am known mostly for my novelty decorations and for tailoring each cupcake to the recipient. These ones I made for a hen-do, the bride-to-be was marrying a farmer!


RC: What do you love most about running Baked By Becky?

B: Whatever the order, the thing that spurs me on is seeing the look on someone’s face when they receive their box of cupcakes, each one made from scratch, by hand, especially for them!

You can contact Becky and order some of her favourite rocky road cupcakes or join her to learn how to create Spring Cupcakes on March 30 in Warwick or Vintage Cupcakes on April 21 in Stratford.

Yummy!
