Cost-of-living crisis 'embarrassingly' closes Sutton cake shop after under 2 years
Briefly

Boescakes, a popular cake shop chain, has permanently closed its Sutton branch only a few months after its opening in November 2023. The owners attributed the decision to financial struggles linked to the cost-of-living crisis and the branch’s proximity to their Wallington location. They expressed regret for not providing advance notice to customers and emphasized that the closure is not a failure but a necessary step to navigate ongoing economic challenges. Customers were invited to buy cupcakes on the last day as a farewell gesture.
We are gutted that this is happening. We have chosen to make today the last day. It's too close to our Wallington branch, and it's sadly not making the money.
In the climate of today, we are feeling this, so we have chosen to go down to three shops. This is not failing. This is trying to get through the rising cost of life.
