I have made the decision to close my bakery indefinitely and be a fulltime activist with Here4TheKids

16/11/2023

It's not official until it's FB official--I have made the decision to close my bakery indefinitely and work full time with the Here4TheKids movement--an educational movement confronting global systems of oppression--which started as a movement to ban guns.

Cakes and macarons are great--but they personally feel less important than saving our kids. My kids. Your kids. ALL kids.

Please join me in abolition, liberation, and solidarity by joining us at Here4TheKids here on FB, or other social network sites like IG, TikTok, and LinkedIn. Check out our website www.here4thekids.com , and join our global community on Mighty Network here: https://here4thekids.mn.co/share/N_ZpcCWn6Mz_VVhK?flow=facebook&utm_source=manual

We are not free until we're all free. We must care deeply about ALL kids, and abolish all that harms them.

In solidarity,
BethAnn

𝑪𝒉𝒂𝒓𝒊𝒛𝒂𝒓𝒅!🔥

PSA: I don’t often do kids cakes. Especially character cakes.

I did a lot of them when I was first starting out, but to be honest, the designs are not usually my style and often lack creativity.

That being said—I will totally squeeze them in if they have fun elements, or allow me to be creative with texture and design.

This Charizard cake fit the bill! Loved getting to create this fun “grown up” design for a Pokémon loving 7 year old.

Simple. Classic. Stunning.

This bridal shower cake was a showstopper this weekend!

100% edible down to the sparkle on the bodice ✨

Happy National Macaron Day! This calls for something yummy…

I’m hoping to bring back my specials just in time for Spring! A flavor of the week will be announced each Monday and offered that week (with no order minimum!) while supplies last.

To kick it off, I have a beautiful multipack box of some of my best selling flavors: Salted Caramel, Vanilla, Cookies & Cream, Limoncello, Pistachio, and Chocolate.

A 6 count box is $15–you can build your own box from the flavors above, or choose one of each for a rainbow of spring hues!

Can you feel it…

…wedding season is just around the corner!

Any season can be wedding season, but cakeries can’t deny the hustle in Spring/Summer/Fall.

This cake includes textured buttercream with romantic blooms…𝒂𝒍𝒘𝒂𝒚𝒔 a classic!

Let’s talk about my favorite cake vibe:

Dusty pinks, gorgeous blooms, and 𝙖𝙡𝙬𝙖𝙮𝙨 a bit of gold detail! ✨

That stencil detail tho 🤩

WE ♥️ TEACHERS

And we love getting requests to help celebrate them with something sweet. 🍎

PSA: Cakesicles are the perfect celebratory treat. So versatile, and oh-so-cute!

Bakers know there are only three things certain in life:

Death, taxes, and requests for Roblox cakes!

I keep getting requests for cute little penguin cakesicles…but these with the girly bows might be my favorite 😍

20/01/2023

I don’t always make cakes that look like the Titanic, but when I do…I sing Celine Dion at the top of my lungs until the cake is picked up 🎶

This was a fun one!🚢

14/01/2023

The cutest custom cakesicles! These were so much fun to create. ❄️

Thank you for your patience and support♥️

Need a cake, but love macarons?

Introducing…a macaron cake. ✨

Sliceable and sharable, it’s perfect for those intimate gatherings when you still want something special. Sized similar to a 4” mini cake.

Who would you share this with?

09/01/2023

Handcrafted like a real Birkin…but 100% edible. This was so fun to make, and might be my favorite yet!

Share this with a luxury purse lover ♥️

These macaron Christmas trees have my heart this year!🎄

These cute little Christmas light cakesicles might be too cute to eat!

(Kidding—nothing is too cute to eat!)

But they’re so cute that I made some extras.

Reach out if you’d like to snag some for the perfect holiday treat!🎄

𝐇𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐨𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐜𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐛𝐨𝐦𝐛𝐬!🎄

These are my favorite new addition this holiday season🤩

Like a cake pop—but so much bigger that you’ll probably want a fork!

Totally giftable, totally sharable. (Or covet one to yourself—we won’t tell!)

This baby shower setup was flawless—these twins are already so loved!

Here’s a sneak peek of my dessert table complete with a cake, cupcakes, macarons, and cakesicles. 🤩

Cutest little macaron Christmas Tree!

I’ll likely have some more of these available next week—they’re slightly larger than a cupcake.

It’s the perfect size whether you want them to be a personal treat for one, or sharable with a friend. Either way, they’re delectably giftable too! 🌲
