A GROUP of women from the B40 community in Buntong, Perak, and its surrounding areas are putting to good use baking skills learned from a non-governmental (NGO) initiative by venturing into business.

The women, including a few single mothers, participated in the Perak Women for Women Society (PWW) Baking Studio session where participants are taught baking techniques to make delectable treats that are good for sale.
