Cardiff’s youngest vendor has a fool-proof method for determining whether his products will be big sellers at the weekly St Mary\u00a0Street Market. So far, he hasn’t put a paw wrong.<\/p>\n

As he is\u00a0named on the stall’s council application as one of the stall’s holders, it’s Muppet’s job to ensure every biscuit sold meets his high standards.<\/p>\n
