Meet the Northside Crafters: Melbourne Epicure

Why do craft markets have food stalls ... to keep the crafters fed and happy of course! When we started to plan this market, the first thing people asked was "will you have cupcakes there ..."

Tell us about what you sell ...
A variety of baked goods, olive & herb bread, haloumi & herb bread, fruit muffins, gingerbread men, variety of cupcakes, sesame & nut bars and the occasional savoury delites as well.

What do you like to listen to when you craft?
Some quiet at the moment.

None at the moment but I love blog surfing around the world.

Whats up next for you on the craft front?
Like to go beyond baking and try a little sewing and patchwork

Do you have any UFO's (unfinished objects),what are they?
There are a lot of things that I'd like to start on besides the baking but with my two little cheeky monkeys around all the time it's a little hard to get started at times.
