Food: teenage baker Amelia Ferrier

From Afternoons, 3:09 pm on 8 July 2016

When Amelia Ferrier (or Melie as she is known to her fans) was asked to bake a cake for a friend's fifteenth birthday party, she never dreamed it would be so popular that it would lead to her baking cakes at night and on the weekend to sell. Melie now has almost 10,000 followers on Instagram and sells elaborately decorated cakes, which are in hot demand through her blog.

Melie joined Jesse in the Auckland studio and also shared her recipe for coconut custard and dulce de leche cake.
