Starting off our list is Sweet Bakes, a fairly new baker on the scene who is offering everything from Hot Crossed Buns to Oreo Cookie Dough Brownies!

Run by Michaela Ellul, Sweet Bakes is a pandemic-era baking initiative that has combined two of her greatest loves: baking and photography. As a first-year University student, Michaela has also experienced the effects of COVID-19 first-hand, never stepping into a physical classroom for lectures at all.

Sweet Bakes’ goods are available at Upperfood in Tal-Ibraġ. You can also contact her for personalised bakes or any questions you may have.
