It was just another manic Wednesday at Bella's when I (Bella) received a call from the BBC on my mobile. I did not know it was the BBC as the number was withheld. Sometimes I do not answer these as they often turn out to be people trying to sell me stuff I don't need or want. When it turned out to be a call asking, can you bake some " Konta muffins" for us to collect within the next 80 minutes? And is there any chance you could make them tennis themed? And being who I am believing in my Bella's Secret super powers I said OF COURSE!!!
Now we first had to clear up what is the difference between muffins and cupcakes as I thought buttercream cupcakes with fresh strawberry on top are very Wimbledony indeed but the person ordering them is allergic to dairy and does not eat cake so has no clue what it was. Yet he managed to find out that Johanna baked white chocolate and raspberry ones for her coach, also banana and nut - oh no, banana chocolate chip ones. So wouldn't that be great? By now I only have 70 minutes left. OK, thank you so much Bella and let's stick with the cupcakes - really??? He meant muffins...
I send my Italian intern to Sainsburys to get me raspberries - thank God for Google translate...
She must be an Olympian - she made in record time. We did it… Tennis themed! Because we are Bella's!!! The end result will be on BBC South Today, tonight on 12/07/2017
We will try to get a photo or video clip from the broadcast.
