About Us
Love to bake? Love a good natter? Or just love cake? You’re in the right place. Village Bakers is Manchester’s LGBTQ+ baking social group where we Bake, Bring & Share. We meet at our monthly Sunday Social at The Molly House to enjoy homemade treats, cuppas, and great company – no pressure, no competitions.
We’ve been doing this for over 13 years, on every second Sunday of the month. Bake something or just come to eat – everyone’s welcome.
What Our Bakers Say
Real Bakes. Real People. Really Good Times.
But don’t just take our word for it—our bakers know what makes this group special. From building confidence to finding community or just sharing something sweet, here’s why Village Bakers is their favourite recipe for friendship, fun, and feeling fabulous.
” It’s an ideal way to wile away a Sunday afternoon. You have a chat, a cake and a drink – what more do you need?”
“such a welcoming and friendly community. I never fail to meet more lovely people at each event. It’s the perfect group to meet people with a love of baking or a sweet tooth”
“It’s such a wholesome community, I love that everyone has a reason to bake something and push ourselves – if we wish to!.”
