Chelle Holmes of Holmes Made Cakes, is helping small businesses by sharing the secrets to her success: viral videos and Terry's Chocolate Oranges are both essential.
Chelle has an eye for detail and can recreate almost anything using icing and a Terry's Chocolate Orange.
Back in 2020, it was her Grinch design that went viral, causing her stock to sell out in minutes and led to replicas of her icing design all over the world.
After selling over 150 Grinch designs, the Yorkshire baker turned to more extravagant designs like Leonardo Di Caprio's face and now shares her secrets to thousands of other baker-hopefuls across the world.

The page has over 16,000 members who can all learn for free and has inadvertently saved a number of small businesses as a result.
Holmes Made Cakes has been a hugely popular business as a result too.
Last Christmas, Chelle sold three times her anticipated target but saw some of her clients double even her own figures.
Looking ahead to this Christmas, Chelle will be creating more unique designs to share on her Facebook page.
Previously, classes showing bakers how to turn Terry's Chocolate orange turn into pumpkins have been held online and a range of helpful tips can be found on Facebook year-round.
It's not just Terry's Chocolate Oranges that Holmes Made Cakes offer though, a range of large-scale celebratory cakes, buns and sweet treats can be ordered from the York-based baker.

Netflix is set to air a new documentary about the investigation of Lucy Letby, and the trailer has now been released.
The feature-length film about Lucy Letby - the infamous neonatal nurse who was found guilty of murdering seven babies and attempting to murder seven others under her care at the Countess of Chester Hospital - hears for the first time from the police officers who investigated the case that shook the nation.
It features never-before-seen footage of Letby during her arrests and police questioning, and even includes interviews with experts and lawyers on both sides, as well as with the hospital consultants who initially raised the alarm.
Tragically, it also includes an anonymised interview with a mother of one of the victims, who also speaks for the first time about her experience and involvement in Letby’s trial.
Produced as a result of years of research and relationship-building, the film - simply titled The Investigation of Lucy Letby - is described as being the most 'comprehensive' look at one of Britain's most notorious crimes, and traces developments from her arrest to trial in chronological order.
Viewers will be given 'unparalleled and exclusive access' to those central to the story.
"This was an exceptional and demanding project, marked by significant creative and ethical responsibility," commented director, Dominic Sivyer. "Our aim was to craft a powerful, emotionally resonant depiction of the events surrounding the case."

Caroline Short, Head of Global TV at ITN Productions - who produced the documentary - added: "The access to all our contributors came with a huge responsibility to present everyone's perspectives with care and understanding.
"We are grateful to all those people who trusted us to tell their story."
The Investigation of Lucy Letby will be released and available to stream on Netflix in the UK and Ireland on 4 February 2026.
