Description

When Kitty Tait was in her early teens, she started struggling with anxiety and depression. Her family tried various activities, like art and dog walking, to try and help her, but nothing worked. Then Kitty tried baking, and everything changed. Soon she was baking dozens of loaves, then hundreds, and her mental health improved on the way. When she was 15, alongside her father Alex, Kitty opened her own business, The Orange Bakery, and it's been a big hit in their English village. They have a book coming out called Breadsong.
