TWO Great British Bake Off favourites visited Wenvoe to host a day of baking demonstrations.

Housebuilder Redrow invited the pair, who featured on the 2016 series, to their development The Grange, Wenvoe and one in Colwinston.

During the visit Val Stones gave demonstrations on making sweet and savoury items and Louise Williams demonstrated how to make focaccia.

Mrs Stones said: “I hope that during the demonstrations I really shared my love and passion of baking as well as providing lots of handy tips - it really is true when you bake with love it is never a chore.”

“We were delighted to be invited by Redrow Homes to take part in these fantastic events,” said Mrs Williams.

“Val has become a very good friend of mine and we love baking together so it was a wonderful opportunity for us to share our love of baking with the public; hopefully we inspired a few more people to try baking themselves at home.”

Kate Lacey, area sales manager for Redrow Homes South Wales, said: “It was fantastic to have the opportunity to hold this kind of event at our developments and we were all thrilled with the amount of people who showed up.

"Both Louise and Val were incredibly warm and charismatic and it was lovely to see so many members of the public enjoying themselves.”
