SAVOUR
TEA AND TARTÉ Tea and Tarté is based in Mangawhai and specialises in Custom Cakes, Tarts and Desserts. Owner Louisa started the business by chance when friends tasted and saw her children's birthday cakes asking her to create one for their children. Word soon got out and she was being recommended in the greater Mangawhai area. "The business has grown quite quickly! I have made orders for people from Auckland to Keri-Keri. From wedding, birthday and gender reveal cakes to bridal showers and fully customised wedding dessert tables,” says Louisa. “It’s an absolute passion of mine and I get such joy from making not only a beautiful cake for someone's special occasion but they also taste delicious!” www.facebook.com/cakedmangawhai www.instagram.com/teaandtartekids
