Pastry consultancy & product development
I’m Faye Weatherburn, a pastry chef and consultant working with bakeries, cafés, and food brands on menu and product development.
Batch is my independent practice, focused on shaping ideas into clear, confident ranges. My work is grounded in thoughtful flavour, careful testing, and an understanding of what holds up in real kitchens.
I work across laminated doughs, seasonal baking, and flavour-driven pastry, supporting both early-stage ideas and established menus that need refinement.
I work flexibly depending on what’s needed, but support often includes:
Menu and product range development
Recipe creation, testing, and refinement
Pastry and baked goods consultancy
Production and scaling support
Range restructuring and simplification
Process, workflow, and systems development
Training and knowledge handover for teams
Work can be project-based or ongoing, and suited to both early-stage ideas and established kitchens or brands.
