CHRISTMAS is just 37 days away and the decorations are beginning to appear in shops across the Loddon.
So too is festive fare being prepared by apprentice pastrycook Raiden Forster and his mother Deb at Pyramid Hill’s Coffee Bank cafe.
Plum puddings, cakes and dozens of Christmas balls have already been whipped up by Raiden using local produce.
Walnuts and salt have been sourced from Loddon producers along with apples and cherries.
Deb says there has been a lot of demand for the Christmas balls - mini-puddings - as customers prepare for Christmas.
And the Christmas balls are equally as popular in other Loddon communities. Orders fron Arnold Butchers in Boort and Bridgewater Farmhouse Kitchen are keeping Raiden busy each day using his mother’s recipes.
The Loddon Herald this next week publish a special Christmas gift ideas feature supporting local businesses in the 2022 #shoplocal #shoploddon campaign.
