It was the second year running That Secret Ingredient, run by 24-year-old Morgan Mole, had catered for the succcessful event and Mr Mole says the response to both dates were outstanding with everyone who attended saying they would recommend the event to friends.

Mr Mole was inspired to hold these events as he saw a gap in the market for high end afternoon teas.

He said: “There are many places locally that make and serve afternoon tea, but there’s nothing high end without travelling into Manchester city centre.

"I really wanted to show another side of my business, putting my work as a pastry chef to good use.”

Mr Mole is already looking to set dates for the Christmas event next year and hold another for Mothers’ Day in March.
