{{ANNOUNCEMENT}}
I wanted to take a moment to say THANK YOU to all of you who have supported me, believed in me, and entrusted me with the gift of making delicious treats for all of your occasions! This little baking side hustle has grown so much over the past year and a half... WAY more than I could have imagined or anticipated! It’s truly been amazing & humbling 🙏🏻💜
••
That being said, running this side hustle in addition to my full time job is a LOT of work! While I love doing it, I have decided to take some time off to give myself a little extra time and space to clear my mind & focus on me. So for the immediate future, I am not taking any new orders. Any orders already in the books are absolutely confirmed, but I am not taking on any new orders at the time. I anticipate this will be at least until the end of February, but I will definitely keep you all posted.
••
THANK YOU all again, and I will most definitely be back! 🤗🙌🏼

I absolutely LOVED getting to make this cake for my cousins bridal shower today🌻💛

2020 • What a wild year! Once the pandemic hit I was shocked to still receive so many cake orders and requests! I’m beyond grateful for everyone along with me on this wild baking journey! For everyone who has inquired or placed an order, followed along with me on Instagram or Facebook, I am so incredibly grateful for your support and love. I truly feel it every day. I have felt so many ups and downs of this ride, doubting myself at times and feeling super proud of myself at other times, but the constant encouragement and faith YOU all have in me keeps me going. I couldn’t possibly thank you enough. Sending out so much love and wishing everyone a happy & healthy 2021!

Happy 5th Birthday Dez!!
