An angry baker called out thieves on social media for swiping up to £90 of cakes from her village honesty box - only for people to blame her for 'dangling a carrot' in front of the vulnerable.
Laura Craig has been selling £3 treats from an unlocked cupboard in Salterforth, Lancashire, for the past month but this weekend she noticed stock and income was low.
The 39-year-old took to Facebook on Sunday to declare 'dishonest' thieves had been taking cakes without payment so she's had to halt her trust-based sales.
The Cake Cupboard owner, who has been selling treats to cafes for two years, says up to 10 cakes per day were stolen between Friday and Sunday - totalling a possible £90 loss.
Many Facebook users supported the mum-of-two's idea and said that 'selfish' people should be 'ashamed' they are ruining the honesty box for others.
