🎄 Less than 100 days until Christmas – are you ready?
Do you remember that feeling when you first got your brand-new logo ? I remember it so clearly – I wanted to stick it everywhere. It felt magical when I could finally print edible logos and let my customers literally taste their branding! Maybe you’ve felt that too. Or maybe not yet – but did […]

✧ Summer parties, milestones & magical moments ✧
It’s been a little quiet on my end — not because nothing was happening, but because so much was happening. The end of the school year always feels like a whirlwind of cake boxes, big orders, school treats and planning stress… but also full of tiny moments of joy. 🍓✨ Evy turned six. Six! And […]

What a few sizzling summer weeks we’ve had! The days have been long, the sun has been shining bright, and honestly? It’s been quite a challenge at times.

Mother’s Day, Spring and exciting news for baking businesses!
Last week, I returned from a much-needed vacation with my family. We flew to a small, remote Greek island, surrounded by nothing but breathtaking cliffs, endless sea views, and the kind of quiet that lets you reconnect with yourself and your loved ones. It was pure quality time—swimming, playing games, taking long walks, and simply […]
