ANOTHER WEEK DOWN. 🎂

Another fu***ng full on cake week.

Tomorrow update ….OPEN 8–12 for Charlie Chops’ birthday because apparently I don’t sit still and he’s not here to eat the cake. 😂

This week, Lots of new faces.
Lots of the same questions, I may or may not answer them in an entertaining post. 🤷🏼‍♀️
Yes the credit card surcharge is being absorbed by us, no I am not double dipping. No I will not entertain a back and forth about government BS changes, respectfully you are always entitled to your opinion as am I.

Thanks Albo Anthony Albanese . Your ignorance of small business life is not ok especially when we are not the minority according to your own damn data. Pop in for a coffee and chat when you are in town ❤️to see you! 🙃

Supplier price increases?
FU***NG RIDICULOUS.

And all those incidental little changes we were told weren’t really going to happen?

😂😂😂 No surprise, they did increase.

Tired feet. Full brain. Not much social media from me because honestly, I just haven’t had the words.

I’ve been thinking a lot about small business and the future.

I’ve been here before.
I know how fu***ng scary it can get.

And I’m bloody lucky I don’t have a whole team relying on me, because I’m not sure I’d sleep at night carrying that stress.

BUT THEN…

You lot walk through the door.

New faces. Old faces. Chats. Laughs. Cake.

THE BEST FU***NG PEEPS. ❤️

And now my teenage helpers are heading back into the expensive education daycare system, so I’m flying solo again. 😂

So here we fu***ng go.

Another week. More cake. Still standing. Deliriously busy. See you Monday 8-12 for cake, chats and who knows 😉 PS. do NOT leave your cake orders to the last minute this week! You have been told! ❤️ x

ANOTHER WEEK DOWN. 👋

And honestly…

I think we either got better at this, or it was quieter, despite the evidence to the contrary. 😂

You lot have absolutely fu***ng shown up.

The chats. The laughs. The cakes. The toasties.
Our regulars who make NC what it is.
The new faces who wandered in and decided to come back.

Thank you for sharing your weekends with us. ❤️

Now… another week incoming and I have THOUGHTS. Of course I do.

Small business right now…

WHAT THE ACTUAL F**K ARE WE SUPPOSED TO DO?

Credit card surcharge changes.

Do we absorb it?
Do we change prices?
Do we wear yet another cost because we don’t want anyone feeling ripped off?

Because here’s the uncomfortable bit…

Making a profit is not ripping people off.

It’s how you keep the bloody doors open.

Why is it completely acceptable for massive businesses to make money, but when a little business tries to remain profitable we’re somehow supposed to feel guilty about it?

I don’t get it.

There is already enough uncertainty for small business without constantly wondering how the f**k we’re supposed to make all of this work.

Anyway…

🎂 NEW CAKE LIST COMING.

A few changes. A little streamlining.
Same ridiculous amount of cake. 😂

And Thursday?

CLOSED. BLINDS DOWN. Busy bees behind them.

Every inch of NC is becoming a cake factory.

Because apparently we do CAKE 🤷🏼‍♀️

Another week done and dusted.

Still figuring it out.
Still baking the cake.
Still bloody grateful you’re here.

Big ❤️ x

21/09/2026

🎂 CAKE CAKE CAKE.

It’s time.

No more dilly dallying.
No more “I’ll message you later.”
No more pretending Thursday isn’t coming. 😂

ORDERS ARE CLOSING.

Tick. Tock.
Get your cake sorted. 🎂

20/09/2026

IT’S SUNDAY. HERE WE FU***NG GO.
THE WEEKLY MEETING NOTES. 😂

Firstly… I am sorry. ❤️ Today was a lot! Unexpectedly hecticAF.

To our regulars who barely got their usual check-in, chat or hug this weekend — especially my fave little humans who always get a cuddle.

And to ALL our regulars who keep showing up and have made NC what it is…

THANK YOU.

And a huge hello to all the new people who found us this weekend.

WELCOME. 😂

You caught us on a weekend where we were hecticAF. We like to at least look like we know what we are doing, today I am undecided if we did whatsoever 🤞

We ran out of SO. MANY. THINGS. The wait at times was RIDICULOUS! I think I recall waving to people I don’t even remember seeing come in the door 🤦‍♀️

Restocking. Drinks. Clearing. Cakes. Repeat.

Our regulars basically jumped in and helped us look like we had our s**t together.

We clearly did not. 😂

WTF WHERE DID YOU ALL COME FROM? You just kept coming!

And then…

THE CAKES.

So. Many. Cakes.

We literally played cake box Jenga all weekend!

Gratitude is such a w***y word because honestly, it doesn’t even come close.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for every good, tricky, amazing and absolutely fu***ng exhausting moment.

You have no idea what this little business means to me.

And Miss L. ❤️
Oh my Lady Love.

You fu***ng smashed it.

Especially during the bit where we both looked completely clueless and wanted to cry. 😉

What a weekend.

What the f**k have we created? I have no words (to anyone who knows me that’s unheard of 😉) Please know I am currently dissecting every single moment we weren’t at our best just so we don’t relive the day that was any time soon because that’s just who I am! See you next week! Big ❤️ K x

16/09/2026

BLINDS DOWN TODAY.

Which means…

YEAH NAH. 😂

Unplanned planned works happening in the background — you take the tradie when you can get the bloody tradie.

But don’t stress — extra cake hours are coming in Week 1 of the school holidays. 🍰

Today = nope.
Tomorrow = 8am.

The cakes will see you then ❤️

14/09/2026

ORDER THE CAKE. That is all. 🎂

13/09/2026

SUNDAY.

Right.

We need to talk.

Because apparently you can’t run a small business anymore without needing a degree in compliance, a crystal ball and a fu***ng miracle.

And I’m genuinely wondering how many of us are just quietly thinking:

WHAT THE ACTUAL F**K IS GOING ON?

Rules.
Costs.
More rules.
More costs.

And nobody seems to know what half of it is actually achieving.

I can see what’s coming.

And I don’t think we’re going to like it.

There. I said it.

Anyway… 😂

Back to the land of cake.

This week was BIG.

Cakes everywhere.
A lost cake. A found cake. The day after the cake was lost found 🤦‍♀️
Lost messages. Still looking for the owners of those 🤷🏼‍♀️
Beautiful humans.
Sad goodbyes.
A bloody sell-out today.

And Saturday?

I nearly didn’t go.

I was terrified to close up because WHAT IF.

What if someone was disappointed? LOUD opinions.
What if I lost money?
What if, what if, fu***ng WHAT IF?

But I went.

My human played his grand final.

We screamed from the sidelines.

THEY FU***NG WON. 🏆

And some absolute legends helped us get out the door when we were too bloody busy to even close properly. Unfortunately the mess remained till we returned.

So this week has reminded me of something.

Business is hard.

People are complicated.

The future is uncertain.

But my little corner of the world is pretty fu***ng special.

Next week could be our biggest yet. Now is the time to order your fu***ng cake or not, your choice. Don’t get angry at me when I say no -you have been told.

And somehow, underneath all the bulls**t…

I’m really bloody grateful.

For this little business.
For the people in it.
For the people around it.

And for being reminded that sometimes you just have to shut the fu***ng door, go live your life and trust that the cake will still be there tomorrow. Good night cake lovers! Sleep well See you Thursday! ❤️

⚽️ GRAND FINAL SATURDAY.

We’re opening 7:30am–10am ONLY this Saturday.

At 10am, I’m closing the doors and heading to the soccer sidelines with his sister — the two of us being his loudest bloody cheerleaders. 🏆⚽️❤️

Because sometimes you just have to put the business brain down and go be Mum (and embarrassing)

So get in early for your ☕ coffee, 🍳 brekky, 🥪 toasties, 🥐 bakery goodies & 🍰 ALL THE CAKE.

7:30–10am. Then the cake lady & fam have LEFT THE BUILDING. 😂

Because the most important booking this Saturday is a GRAND FINAL. 🏆

And I’ll be on that sideline screaming like a bloody lunatic because this team has a WIN on the cards. 😂🏆⚽️

LET’S FU***NG GO BOYS.

Fletch… you know I’m screaming for you. 😉😂❤️

07/09/2026

ORDER THE FU***NG CAKE. 🎂

It’s Monday evening.

If you need cake this week,
NOW WOULD BE A FU***NG EXCELLENT TIME TO TELL ME.

Not Thursday.
Not Friday morning.
Not “I know it’s last minute BUT…”

I KNOW.
YOU KNOW.
WE ALL KNOW.

Choose it from the pinned post before they change. Book it.
Pay for it.
Sleep peacefully knowing the cake is sorted.

Because I am ONE WOMAN and unfortunately my oven does not run on your poor planning despite my people pleasing tendencies 🤦‍♀️.

ORDER THE CAKE STAT. ❤️

06/09/2026

HEY HEY 👋 ITS SUNDAY! It’s been a week! Shoes are way more comfy with no paper, new glasses (fu***ng eyes vs brain not going well) FB score update for finals season interrupting a crazy Saturday (thanks for all jumping on board) year 11 exam season about to be in progress, A LOT.

Okay… I don’t know how to say this without sounding like I’m having a fu***ng whinge, so…

It is getting scary out there.

Another local business closing.
Another person who poured everything into a little idea.
I know what that feels like.

I’ve started again. Not by choice by necessity.

It breaks you in ways people don’t see or ever talk about.

Meanwhile over here we’re drowning in costs, compliance, paperwork and the latest elected grown up “great idea” that apparently will save us all. I’m waiting.

Except…. we’re the ones doing the work.

We don’t get to invoice the government for the hours spent doing their BS.

Hell knows we couldn’t run a business the way this country is being run. 😂

And honestly..

I’m over the motivational bumper-sticker bulls**t.

The “you’ve got this!”
The “just keep going!”
The “support small business!”
The perfectly packaged advice from people who aren’t the ones trying to keep the fu***ng lights on.

Sometimes s**t is just s**t. That’s my Sunday edited version.

And I reckon business owners need somewhere to say that.

Hospitality especially, but honestly — every fu***ng business.

If you’re new, established, thriving, struggling or quietly wondering what the hell you’re doing…

You can talk to me.

No fixing it.
No inspirational quote.

Just people actually talking to people.

Because maybe that’s what we need more of.

Anyway.

That’s my Sunday brain dump. Thanks for being here.

How are you actually fu***ng doing? Really? No BS bumper stickers allowed. ❤️ K x
