Sunflower Cupcakes help raise a smile :)


Two years ago in Ulverston, Windy Ash Cupcakes was set up. The cottage business had the sole intention of providing delicious homemade cakes using only the finest natural ingredients. They wanted to produce cakes that tasted as good as they looked.

Friends kept telling them that they should sell their cakes so in April 2009 they took the plunge. At the beginning they offered just four flavours. They now have over twenty and are still looking for new ones.

They only use organic flour, local free range eggs and unrefined sugar in their cakes with absolutely no artificial colours or flavours whatsoever!

All cakes are baked in small batches in the farmhouse kitchen and then each cake is individually hand decorated using fondant icing, buttercream, chocolate ganache and toffee toppings, which are again all homemade.

St Mary’s were delighted to have on sale sunflower cupcakes each day during Ulverston Carnival Week in The Orangery CafĂ©. The cakes were freshly prepared, delivered and donated FREE to the charity by Windy Ash.

We are delighted to announce that during the week the sale of the Windy Ash Cupcakes raised £200 for St Mary’s, which is wonderful. We are extremely grateful to Windy Ash Cupcakes for helping us to raise additional funds for St Mary’s.
