{w} Hi Claire, could you firstly tell {www} readers a little bit about you?<\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

I am Claire the founder of la Dinette<\/a>, a London based bakery that specialises in Macarons and Cannel\u00e9s de Bordeaux. I am French and moved to London in 2005 after studying Art Management in Paris. I first came to London to stay for a year or so to improve my English but I met my husband here and have never left!<\/p>\n

Finding a job in my field was tough so I ended up working in the food industry which made me realise how much I loved food and that cooking could also be a way to be creative.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/h1>\n

{w} What do you love\/dislike about your job?<\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

I love running my own business. I feel really lucky and privileged to be able to organise my life how I want it. I have a 10 month baby and working from home means that I can spend a lot of time with him which is amazing, but it also means that you have to be super organised and disciplined. What I really love about my job is the feedback I get from my customers, making people happy with sweet treats is pretty rewarding!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/h1>\n

{w} How did you get into the wedding industry?<\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

I quit my office job in 2010 and enrolled at Le Cordon Bleu in London to take the patisserie course and then la Dinette was born. I used to sell mainly at farmers markets in London, selling British & French cakes & pastries. My best sellers were Macarons and Cannel\u00e9s de Bordeaux and I received more and more requests to supply Macarons for weddings. I took a break after having my baby boy in May 2012 and relaunched la Dinette in March 2013 focusing on Macarons and Cannel\u00e9s.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"005-5229-La_Dinette-Wedding_tower\"<\/p>\n

{w} What do you aim to achieve for your clients?<\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

La Dinette is all about simple and yummy but yet sophisticated treats. All our products are made using natural and organic ingredients. For example we don\u2019t use artificial food colouring to make our Macarons.<\/p>\n

Both our Macarons and Cannel\u00e9s de Bordeaux are perfect for wedding favours to surprise your guests with something a bit different. Also you can hire from us a tower to display Macarons which looks great on a dessert table.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"010-5336-La_Dinette-Wedding_favours\"<\/p>\n

{w} What style is your work?<\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

To me less is more. Good quality ingredients are the key to delicious cakes. We use, just to name a few, organic free range eggs, organic almond powder and Valrhona chocolate.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"011-5342-La_Dinette-Wedding_favours\"<\/p>\n

{w} Could you tell us some information about your packages\/prices?<\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

Wedding favours prices start at \u00a32.00 and Macarons and Cannel\u00e9s at \u00a30.80\/unit for large orders.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"013-4868-La_Dinette-Macaron-Raspberry\"<\/p>\n

{w} Do you have any tips for couples in selecting wedding suppliers?<\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

Trust your gut feeling but try to meet your suppliers if you can. To me you are more likely to get a perfect service from someone you get along with (that\u2019s at least the experience I got from organising my wedding).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

{w} How can we get in touch with you?<\/h1>\n
