Subscriber only Five years of sampling, testing, and creating fudge has culminated in a new business for two sisters who love cooking. Vicky Cherry and her sister Julie Mazahave opened Sister Bake Co in Toogoolawah - their shop that stocks homemade fudge and treats. But for the cooking duo, the new shop is just the beginning with the sisters aiming to take their fudge Australia-wide, and even global. It s taken us five years to get to this stage, Vicky said.

Up to 260 people lost their lives statewide, up by 45 deaths from the previous year. Sen Sgt Warren said several causes were behind the crashes, including drivers veering off the road or failing to give way and pedestrians wearing dark clothes at night. There was another one where a pedestrian simply ran out in front of a vehicle between a couple buses and we had a couple crashes where drivers lost control around bends, he said. Sen Sgt Warren urged drivers to be aware of the fatal five this holiday season. Observe the speed limit, make sure everyone has their seatbelt on, alcohol is just not on if you re driving, don t drive distracted ⦠and be aware of fatigue, he said.
