How to Cash in on Your Hobby (and Start a Business With Your Bestie) with Sweet Bakes & Miss Trixie

Ever wondered if the hobby that you love could be the thing that pays your rent? That’s the story of Alice (Miss Trixie Drinks Tea) and Alisha (Sweet Bakes), two women who turned frosting and fun into booming businesses. And after fangirling over each other on socials and becoming baking besties IRL, they did what most of us only joke about... they started a business together. From side-hustle beginnings to sold-out retreats in France, brand collabs, and even launching their own pastel-pink kitchen space and creative hub, these two have learnt exactly what it takes to turn passion into profit and start a business with your bestie without blowing up your friendship.

In this episode:
