And For The Next Holiday . . .

Thank you for another successful pre-Thanksgiving week at the bakery!  We had a busy couple of days, followed by several days of rest, which was greatly appreciated. 

We are headed into December and our first weekend is already booked with orders.  Please get your orders in early, if you will be needing holiday treats!  We will have special hours prior to Christmas, as the holiday falls on a Tuesday this year.  Most likely, we will be open Sunday, December 23 and Monday, December 24 to allow everyone plenty of time to stop in for their favorite treats.  The week following Christmas is still undecided, as we may make the decision to close for a few days and spend some extra holiday time with our families.  We will post more definitive hours soon!

In the meantime, some pictures from the past month or so . . .

Photos!

Starting the week of October 15, we will be making a small change to our bakery hours.  We will now be closed on Sundays, Mondays and Tuesdays.  All other hours will remain the same - Wednesday - Friday we will be open from 10 - 6 and Saturdays from 9 - 3.  We will be posting special holiday hours soon, so watch for them on Facebook and on this page.
 
As I promised last week, lots of pictures to share!  Many, many cakes for many events and this is not even all of the cakes we have done over the last few weeks.  I think I am missing quite a few pictures still, but it's a start. Enjoy!

New Pictures Coming Soon!

We have probably a dozen or more photos to share and I promise they will be posted soon!  They will include several weddings, a shark attack cake, baby shower cakes and more!  I just have to gather them all up.  They are on my phone, my camera, Beth's camera, in my email, etc.  Look for them soon! 

Fall is now officially in the air and we are trying to transition into some fall flavors.  This week we have Wicked Candy Apple and Pumpkin Spice, along with Pumpkin Crunch Cheesecake.  I'm thinking our Apple Pie Cupcake will be on the menu in the upcoming weeks. 

Our weekends are filling up fast, so please order early!!!  Halloween and Thanksgiving orders should be placed now.  Think, cookies, cake pops, cupcakes, etc. for parties, school treats, teacher gifts, etc.  Call or stop by to reserve your spot on our calendar.

Hope to see you this week!

Thank You!

A big thank you to all who helped us celebrate our first birthday this past weekend and to those who helped out in the kitchen and behind the counter.  It was a great day! We have come a long way in a year.  Looking back, we are amazed by how little we knew starting out and how we have adapted and changed the way we do things to make everything run a bit more smoothly each day.  We are still learning and I'm sure by next year at this time we will once again be looking back in amazement.

Here are a few pictures from a wedding that we did and a cake that we made for Icing Smiles . . .




 

 
 
 
This is Lyndsay, our part-timer, in case you haven't met her yet!  She made this cake for Icing Smiles.  If you haven't heard of Icing Smiles, it is a great organization! Visit their site and see what they are all about!

Two Weddings in One Day . . .

Crazy weekend!  We had two weddings on Saturday and we made it work.  Everyone chipped in and we delivered in plenty of time to both locations.  Thanks to Beth, Kaitlin, Mark, Macy, Holly, Liz, Angela and Lyndsay for all that you did to help make it happen this weekend!

Speaking of Lyndsay, she is our new employee!   For now she is working before we are even open in the mornings, but eventually, she will be one of the new faces that you will see when you stop by our shop.  Welcome Lyndsay!  We are happy to have you join us!
