A young Caldermeade girl’s love of horses has sparked a new side hustle.

Macey Ramsbotham, 11, started baking horse treats for her beloved horses Chloe and Bluey.

“I really like baking things and wanted to make cookies for the horses,“ Macey said.

“I started making up recipes and my horses tried them and they worked out.

“Some have apple and carrot in them and my horses just love it.“

Motivated by how much her horses enjoyed the healthy all natural treats, Macey decided to expand her baking to the wider community.

“Mum put it on the Lang Lang Facebook page and it has just blown up,“ Macey said.

She estimates she has made around 300 treats in the first week of going into business.

Despite school returning to on-site learning, Macey is determined to continue baking and taking orders from locals.

“I’ll have to try get all the orders done before or after school. Maybe I will have to wake up early,“ she said.
