For 16 years, I’ve been bringing the fascinating history of British sweets to life through talks that make audiences laugh, learn, and remember.
What You Get:
A 45-minute talk that takes your group on a journey through sweet history - from medieval Pontefract Cakes to wartime rationing, from the birth of Bertie Bassett to the heartbreak of losing Spangles.
No boring PowerPoint presentations. No dry lectures. Just me, some sweets, and stories that’ll transport you straight back to your childhood.
Every attendee receives three sweet samples during the talk - because the best way to understand history is to taste it.
Perfect For:
✅ Women’s Institute groups
✅ U3A societies
✅ History groups and societies
✅ Retirement communities
✅ Community organizations
✅ Corporate events
✅ Heritage festivals
