🌺🥥 Aloha 13 🥥🌺
Happy 13th Birthday to the very sweet and beautiful, Madi B! We enjoyed creating this special cake just for you! Thank you for ordering, Erica Bridgman! 💗

**❤️Cupcake Giveaway❤️**
❤️Can you guess the chocolates?!🍫
First traditional sheet cake I’ve made other than for fun many many years ago! Yellow Cake with Chocolate Frosting, covered with a Chocolate Ganache and topped with 12 Different Chocolate candies/treats! I thought it would be fun to do a little cupcake giveaway to first person who can guess all the candies! I’ll give the first two because the truffles could be confusing…so number 1 is Assorted Truffles and number 2 is two types of Ferrero (Rocher and Rondoir). Can you guess the other 10?! Comment with your guesses! First person to name the other 10 will get cupcakes topped with these yummy chocolates next week! ❤️

A, “We’ll Miss You” cake for an incredible man who has given many years to our students in Union County! I know many emotions surrounded this cake last night! Congratulations on a job well done, Mr. Peeling! You will be missed! Thank you for ordering, Stephanie Sellers!

I am always so overwhelmed by the love and support you all give me! Some of you know and some of you don’t, but my daughter had surgery last week. We are praying and hopeful for a full and speedy recovery! I am not able to take on full orders again until life settles down a bit, but I have tried so hard to keep up with the special occasions and all of the orders I had already committed to. I have a quiet few minutes, so I am taking a little time to share the few orders I have been able to do over the last few months! Thank you all for being so patient and understanding! Much love and appreciation for you all! ❤️

It was Key Lime! 💚

I just wanted to take this opportunity to say how thankful I am for all of you for being so patient with me over these last few months! I have really tried to keep up with all the special occasions, but wasn’t able to jump all the way back in after my daughters birthday like I planned. We have one more obstacle to get through and then hopefully I’ll be able to take on more orders! Much love and thanks…I am truly blessed by you all!

I have to give the biggest thank you to my amazing husband and kids! It has truly been a year of adjustments and figuring it out as we go! They are so supportive of me and we each make sacrifices for it to all work…late nights, early mornings, busy weekends, pitching in when time is crunched and we all try to do it with a smile on our faces! Many may not know, but my husband is a contractor and we also run his business out of our home and our kids are super active with their passions of Dance, Cheer, Baseball and Theatre. All of these are super important to us and our schedules may be full, but our hearts are even fuller! This was an extremely difficult decision that I really prayed over, but as I have reflected over the business of last year, I have the decided that I need to take a little time off from baking so that I can spend some much needed quality and intentional time with my family and really organize and catch up in our home and businesses. I will certainly keep the few orders I have committed to and plan to bake once per month for my recurring monthly orders! I’m looking forward to this time over the next couple of months so that I can refresh and prepare my kitchen and spaces to be able to share many more special moments with all of you! I hope you all can understand how necessary this time is for our family and I look forward to baking for you all soon! Much love and thankfulness to you all! I am truly blessed! ❤️
