Karen a 16-year-old teen joined NUC's youth project five years ago. She said that she was shy and didn’t have any confidence she also said that she didn’t have many friends to hang about with except at school so I went along to NUC to give it a try and I loved it. Kelly said that NUC is a great community. "People hear you say you are from Milton and they have a set idea about that, but this is a good place to live with good people who help each other. We all have to take a turn at helping out,” said Karen. Karen fell in love with baking through a Practical Cake Craft course at school. "It was brilliant, and my teacher, Miss Kewly inspiring and helpful, she has been a great support,” Karen said.
Karen’s fantastic cakes have won her legions of fans and word of mouth recommendations have spread so fast she is working flat out to keep up with orders. “Already, I have 21 Father’s Day orders,” she laughed. “I also do build-your-own cupcake sets, where I provide the sponge, buttercream and decorations, and you can put it all together however you like. A local youth project ordered 360 – I was up almost all night making them.” She smiled: “It didn’t put me off.” Karen, who juggles baking with a part-time job and schoolwork, lives at home with her mum and dad, Karen and Robert A MILTON teenager who overcame shyness to set up her own cupcake business helped her community say thank you to foodbank volunteers working flat out during Covid-19. Karen McSporran, who runs home bakery Kazza’s Kreations, treated the team at Colston Milton Parish Church to boxes of her special cakes.
