*Edited to add: I was able to find someone! THANK YOU so much for your responses… WOW!! I’m grateful for such an overwhelming number of you being willing to help.♥️

Sullivan area locals: Does anyone offer 3-D printing?! I need a couple of apparently-hard-to-find cookie cutters ASAP 😬

Key Lime seasonnnnnn 🍋‍🟩

As stated by this cake’s recipient, “It was the perfect balance of sweet and tart… the key lime wasn’t overwhelming… it was just right.”

Fluffy key lime cake + a creamy, lightly lime-kissed Swiss Meringue Buttercream makes this SUCH a refreshing choice for a summer party! If you like the tartness, a key lime curd added to the filling would take this over the top! 🤤

Not gonna lie—three nights of working late on these, only to have to redo them in 10 hours through a fourth late night, just about DID ME IN. 😅

But every customer deserves my best effort and a quality product, no matter what challenges or disasters may occur (like 9,000,000% humidity inside the shop).

Sometimes baking is equal parts skill, creativity, and problem-solving. And also big doses of crying and cursing. Maybe also a slight desire to run away.

It’s fine now, though; I’m fine 😉

Thats a wrap on Class of 2026 celebrations desserts for me✌️ (I think?)

Are you a traditionalist when it comes to Graduation celebrations, or do you prefer out-of-the-box?

“Dot” cake trend: Cake Pop Edition

My grocery delivery came with the wrong sprinkles, so I went with pink nonpareils instead. SO CUTE, right?!

Buuuuut then I took a bite. EW. Zero stars for taste and texture. I think it’d be fine on a cupcake or cake slice, because of sufficient cake/icing-to-sprinkle ratio. In my opinion, cake pops simply aren’t ideal for this trend; the sprinkles overpowered everything else and were honestly just annoying.

Rating: 2/10

Ah well ✌️
