An impromptu Bake Off competition saw Swanton\u2019s Llanelli office packed to the rafters with delicious treats this February.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Team Leaders from services in West Wales had so much fun baking with the people they support that they turned the activity into a competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every service was heading to the monthly coffee morning at the Community Support office, so they brought along their sweet treat offerings for judging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Community Team Leader Damien Jenkins and Rota coordinator Jonathan Harvey channelled their inner Paul Hollywoods to find the top three bakes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Damien said: \u201cYou have never seen so much cake in your life \u2013 it was amazing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEvery service was represented, and many of them arrived with a selection of cakes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe space was packed to the rafters with people and their bakes, and the atmosphere was fantastic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt was not the world\u2019s most difficult job to be chief judge and taste tester!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First place went to the bakers at Deheubarth who produced a beautiful vanilla sponge with flower design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Team Maesawel took second place with their Victoria sponge filled with whipped cream and fresh strawberries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, Nathan Street came in third place thanks to their beautifully- designed cupcake with strawberry whipped icing on top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Damien said: \u201cAll the cakes in the competition were terrific, so congratulations to our top three for doing so well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe event was such a success that we\u2019re taking no chances with the next coffee morning and booking a bigger venue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s lovely to bring all our services together to socialise like this. Everyone is looking forward to the March event.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
