Pumpkin may rule the season in my heart, but apples have their special place as well. Votes in the comments for the superior fall flavor!

I just really love fall. And sprinkles. And fall sprinkles.

Life is about balance. That's what this work out cake has to teach us.

Just another shot of those royal purple and white wedding cupcakes to round out your Saturday evening πŸ’œπŸ€πŸ’œπŸ€

It's fall, and my absolute favorite time of year for baking. These spiced pumpkin oatmeal cream pies with chai buttercream filling are a perfect treat for a cool, windy fall day. They are about the size of a whoopie pie and just so so delicious.

Don't mind me while I make some Lembas bread for Hobbit Day!
(This version is soft, almost scone-like, and spiced with cinnamon, nutmeg, and honey)

Just a chocolate drip to make your Monday a little sweeter.
Chocolate cake, chocolate buttercream, dark chocolate ganache drip. And just a few chocolate sprinkles (properly called jimmies, of course).

Layers upon layers of cookies! Make your next party/event/function sweeter with a custom variety box of cookies! This one features funfetti (giant), peanut butter, peanut butter explosion (giant), oatmeal chocolate chip (gluten free), and ginger molasses.

Why have a regular peanut butter cookie when you could have a GIANT peanut butter EXPLOSION cookie?! Seriously, though. These cookies are nearly 6oz each, and stuffed to bursting with peanut butter in not one, not two, not three, but FOUR forms! The last picture shows a comparison to my standard (1.5oz) peanut butter cookie so that you can understand how big these bad boys are.

There's tres leches cake, and then there's BANANA tres leches cake! Soaked in the traditional three milks, then layered with whipped cream, fresh banana slices, and banana custard. One last blast of summer before I start spamming you with fall! Swipe for a building collage!

Policy update! For the next 8 weeks (Labor Day weekend through October 24th), I will NOT have weekend availability. This means that I will not be able to offer pick up or delivery on Saturdays or Sundays due to other obligations. This also extends to the holiday Mondays of Labor Day and Indigenous People's Day. I will still be available during the week to bring you sweet treats!
The good news is, you will be able to see me at the on October 23rd! Watch for that announcement coming soon!

Lovely people! I have finally made myself a Google profile and I would so very much appreciate it if you could go leave me a review! May you all have a pretty cupcake today 🧁

Meet your baker! I realized that I haven't properly introduced myself (ever 😳)! I'm Anna, and I'm a cottage food baker based in Norwich, CT. I've been baking since I was a child, and I'm quite passionate about it. I've been very grateful for the support of all of my followers since I began this page a few years ago and I'm looking forward to continuing to share my work with you all!
The picture is from my pop-up yesterday at

English toffee is such a special treat. Really, why should we only have it around the holidays? Buttery, crunchy toffee, toasted almonds, and rich chocolate to top it all off.

A decadent chocolate Kahlua cake flying out the door before I could get a decent picture, and a sneak peek at the slice sent to me by the recipient!

I love buttercream roses. Just a reminder that THIS SUNDAY (August 28th) is my pop up at Luna Hair Salon in Gales Ferry! I would absolutely love to meet some of you in person and have you try my baking!

A few years ago, I was trusted to make a very special birthday dessert in honor of a very special little girl. Her family asked for something similar this year, and I was able to present them with this pretty purple butterfly.

This style of "cake" is called a cream tart cake. This one in particular has a base of gluten free sugar cookies with vanilla buttercream. On top are mini strawberry macarons (smaller than a quarter each!), meringue cookies, buttercream roses, and sprinkles. The whole thing is lightly coated in pearl luster dust, so it shimmers 😍 🌟

If you look back to the post from August 2020, you'll see the first one I made. It's really satisfying to see one's skills progress ❀

What could be better to wake up to on a rainy Wednesday than a warm, gooey, caramel cinnamon roll?
Do you pronounce it "care-uh-mel" or "car-mel"?

It's a chocolate kinda day! This tiny cake is a 4", gluten free chocolate cake, with chocolate sprinkles and chocolate buttercream. Really, who could ask for more?

08/12/2022

Announcement! I will be having a pop up sale on Sunday, August 28th outside of Luna Hair Salon in Gales Ferry! I don't sell my treats in individual portions often, so if you've been wanting to try something, this is your chance! Tell your friends!

08/12/2022

If I hosted a pop-up shop event (location TBD but within a short drive of Norwich, CT), would you attend? This would be in the next few weeks and a perfect way to sample some of my treats without having to place a custom order!

Congratulations to the bride and groom on their special day! This intimate wedding called for a simple, elegant cake topped with red and yellow buttercream roses. The inside is a marble cake filled with banana custard.
