The Dot London Small Business Awards celebrate the success of London's most outstanding small businesses and individuals. 

As London’s first entirely vegan bakery, Brixton based Ms Cupcake specialises in creating cakes suitable for a range of diets, allergies and intolerances. They make and sell their handcrafted cupcakes, layer cakes, cookies, muffins, squares, sandwiches, milkshakes and more, looking to think outside the box and introduce brand new products inspired by the best of American and British baking. 

In 2013 Mellissa wrote her first book, a collection of the bakery's most popular cakes, and the ultimate guide to vegan baking.
