Born as a one-guy operation during a mental health breakdown back in 2021, baking from home, he expanded to a big unit in the beautiful Venn Valley Winery, Landkey. Venn Valley is a vineyard that won a bronze in the Decanter World Wine Awards, the biggest world wine competition. Venn Valley hosts many artisans in their units. He joined forces with his partner Luna to drive the business forward back in 2023. They are now a team of four, including a Portuguese head pastry chef with a lot of experience in weddings and cakes, and another part-time baker. They provide bread and pastries to many wholesalers around the area, and they have a permanent pitch in South Molton Market, where they are extremely popular.

They strive for quality, they use organic ingredients as much as they can, they also get all their fruits and eggs from South Molton Market, the organic milk they use is also local from Croyde.

80th Birthday cake

I approached Lucho to make an 80th birthday cake for my MIL after seeing examples of Andriea's work. Lucho was very communicative all through the process making sure that he understood what I wanted. I paid the deposit online and the balance when I saw him at South Molton Pannier Market. I collected the cake from the bakery and put it in the fridge when I got home. Cake was 2 tiers, bottom vanilla and top chocolate covered in Italian buttercream with fondant flowers. Cake travelled up to Surrey for the birthday party and it arrived in perfect condition. Everybody loved the cake and I have to say that I haven't tasted a vanilla sponge cake so good in a very long time. It was delicious!
MIL sent a note subsequently to say the cake was amazing and that she took some around to her neighbours.
If you want a special celebration cake get in touch with Lucho Bakes!
