I am an older mum of two grown up kids, who loves cooking and baking. I have two charity bake sales a year and it is heart-warming to know that you, like me, will not accept 'that'll do' as enough. It is a case of all or nothing and only the best is good enough. I tell my kids, '...if it's got your name on it, (whatever 'it' is,) make sure you do your best work at all times!' Even at my grand age, Gemma, I am inspired by you but then I'm always willing to learn. Good luck in all you do even though you make me slightly envious of the business you've created.

You are a huge inspiration to me to me Jemma. You're one of my biggest role models next to Gordon Ramsey, Bobby Flay and other competent people. I've been going back and forth on whether I should have my own bakery for a living because people expect me to become a doctor, lawyer, all that good stuff. But my passion is baking, and you have created a lot of that growing passion. So thank you so so so so much. I wish to meet you one day. I live in Houston, Texas but I've always wanted to go to to the UK to meet you. You're AMAZING AND I LOVE YOU

Hello! I'm a 15 year old trying to figure out what I want to do in life, and lately all I can think of is baking. Over the last 3 months I have sold around 5 cakes (small amount but great achievement to me!) and I have also tested new recipes and stuff. Today I found your channel and oh my god, you made me love baking even more (if that makes any sense ) because I can see the passion you have for your work and the thing you said in the video about keeping our standards high is absolutely true because if you are not going to give your 100% then what's the point? If you miraculously read this I want to tell you something more : Thank you! xx - Sofi.

I used to live in England when I was younger- like ages 4-9, and when I was in school I had some desserts that have always been my favorite but since moving back to the states it has literally been impossible to find the name/recipe for them. I have asked other you tubers as well and have not gotten a response. I'm hoping you might have an answer for me so I can continue the "tradition" here in US with my family . Anyway it was a sponge cake with like a warm custard over the top and served warm Or room temperature. There was another one that was like a yellowish cake with a white icing that was smooth on the top but then had a colorful design on the top like an infinity ribbon design. And another was a chocolate cake with chocolate mousse frosting.

I'm not only impressed tonight but possibly smitten. 😊 Probably because you shared so much and answered so many of my personal wonders. I'm in South US and old but have 30 years in the business as a committed learner. Pastry has never been a thrill for me but when I need guidance and ideas for super-sexy kitchen desserts, I've learned that Jemma has it covered. Maybe because I feel like Jemma shares professional technique rather than what I would call "housewife sweets." Easy to scale, plenty impressive enough to sell, delivered with confidence and authority. These videos are a gift and ones I appreciate and share to my peers. You do such a fantastic job and my best to you in your small business successes.

My question is now: If I were to get in touch with people who would actually buy those cookies (which some want to, because your recipes are brillant), would I be able to do that or would you feel copied and mad? :) Much love!

Waaaa. Was hoping for more baking questions to have been asked here. So for next time... Why do you use bicarb of soda and not baking powder- what's the difference? Why do you not add these to some sponges at all ( think the later cake sponges)- is it a different type of sponge? When you make some sponges you beat the butter and sugar first others you use a wet ingredients together and dry ingredients together method. What's the difference? What size cupcake cases are you using? I think mine may be too big as I've run out of batter on a few bakes unless I doubled up on the ingredients listed here on You Tube or in your recipe book ...? Trimming my cakes can sometimes make them crumble around the edges - please do you have some top tips for that?
