New shop D&D Cakes opens doors in Watton's High Street

D&D Cakes has celebrated its launch in Watton's High Street in the former premises of Cat's Candy Box.

D&D Cakes is named after its owners, Daniel and Daniela Neagu, a Romanian couple who moved to Norfolk in 2020 after spending 12 years in Italy.

"We want to bring a little bit from both Romania and Italy with us," Mr Neagu said.

"Our cakes are light, not too sweet or heavy - fresh and juicy.

"We're used to going out in the sun with our two children to eat fresh sweets or ice cream so we want to recreate this feeling here."

He added he was shocked by the town's positive reaction to the shop's opening last Saturday.

"We sold out of everything. It means a lot to us - it has always been my dream to own my own business and my wife is very passionate about what she does."
