The owner of a new baking business is offering tasty treats with a slice of mindfulness.
Cake Face is a delivery business bringing bakes to your door and a reminder to take some time out of your day to switch off.
It is owned by Jumara Stone, from Norwich, who knows all too well the importance of looking after your mind.

The 29-year-old, who works in education and the mental health sector, has been a passionate baker for 10 years and decided to take the plunge and turn her hobby into a business.
After just three weeks, her delicately decorated floral brownies, cakes, and cookies are already being stocked in businesses across the city, including The Yard cafe in Red Lion Street.
But for those who have ordered to their homes, as well as a box of goodies they will receive a card with kind words and a barcode to an uplifting or nostalgic song.
Mrs Stone said: "For me, baking is my source of wellbeing. I work as head of Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) and I deliver training on mental health and wellbeing, so it can get really intense.
