Earlier this month Sarah was invited to take her baked goods to the Countyfile Live show at Blenheim Palace.

She said: “We went to the Countryfile Live show and there were about 100,000 people there and we sold out every day. It was a tremendous event and it was very successful, very well organised and well attended. The BBC team were brilliant.”

Sarah also received an award this year for one of her gluten free loaves.
