Upon turning up to meet one of Lincolnshire\u2019s newest luxury confectioners, it\u2019s clear we\u2019re in for a treat. And surely enough, Shannon Riglin\u2019s studio is full of the latest products she\u2019s created as part of her Christmas range, ready to offer to those seeking festive treats for guests to enjoy over the season. Her showstopper is a stunning looking four-layer marbled chocolate cake heaving with ganache and chocolate curls.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018That must have taken ages!\u2019 We remark, but Shannon\u2019s been baking since she was a youngster and assures us it\u2019s just a case of utilising her experience to approach even the most ambitious bake with patience and attention to detail. You could give Shannon the credit she deserves&#8230; or&#8230; if you were feeling particularly nefarious, you could just pass it off to guests as your own creation.<\/p>\n<p>Either way, Shannon\u2019s just happy that hundreds of people this Christmas will be enjoying her ranges of tray bakes, blondies, cookies, cakes, cheesecakes and cookie pies. And it\u2019s a nice change of pace from the rigours of academia, like the masters degree she completed at the University of Lincoln last September, just prior to setting up her business, Tiffin &amp; Co Bakehouse.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve lived in Lincolnshire most of my life and have always had the ambition of baking for a living. Previously, I\u2019ve baked for family and friends, but I knew it would be a leap of faith to turn a personal passion into a business.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter pursuing a Business Studies &amp; Management degree with the Open University and then completing my Masters, we were in the throes of lockdown and I finally had the time to set up a business. I\u2019ve designed the branding, made the website and set about creating a range of products that I thought everyone would love.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat was seven months ago and the response has been really rewarding. I\u2019ve some core products that are popular all year round but I also try to create new ranges, like my Christmas products, which are just about ready to go.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy ranges are available at all six of Gary Simpson\u2019s shops in Lincoln, Sleaford and Stamford, as well as Baytree Garden Centre, Stamford Garden Centre and Boston\u2019s Sack Store, but most products can also be delivered nationally too.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m already receiving orders for mixed boxes of brownies, blondies, cookies and festive products like cranberry flapjacks and white forest blondies; limited edition products.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m taking orders for Christmas delivery until mid-December, and already people are really happy to have found a gift for loved ones, up and down the country, which are more personal, really indulgent and a present that comes from a small local business.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur chocolate and Lotus Biscoff products\u00a0 are the most popular at the moment, but we\u2019ve hot cookie dough trays, dipping sauces and cookie pies too, and we\u2019re also taking orders for completely bespoke eight-inch celebration cakes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMore involved cakes need about a week\u2019s notice, but often for products that I bake daily I can send out with a courier for next day delivery.\u00a0After all, nobody should have to wait to enjoy something delicious this season!\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Find Out More: Shannon is the founder of Tiffin &amp; Co Bakehouse, delivering brownies, blondies, cakes and cookies nationwide.
