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 even though she originally wanted to have her birthday party after the summer holidays, she suddenly changed her mind: “Actually… I’d like to do it now, Mama.”
So, of course, I went from zero to full-on party planner in just two and a half weeks. 🎈
We celebrated with five of her friends (and lots of cake, of course!) at the Poelboerderij near our home. A magical place with fishing nets, a water playground, sunlit fields, giggling kids — and that wonderful sense of freedom only outdoor parties can bring.
For school, she wanted to hand out ice cream. Super simple. But yeah… I’m still me. So even that had to feel like a celebration. 😉
And honestly? That’s what I live for. Those moments when everything sparkles just a little more. ✨ Whether it’s a birthday party, an anniversary, or just a random July afternoon when you decide:
“Today, I’m celebrating life.”
Because that’s what I love most about my work: helping to create magical moments of celebration. Big or small. 🎂
☀️ Summer = clearing, dreaming & scheming
The summer holidays have begun, and while most people are diving into beach days and books, I… start clearing out. Cleaning. Reorganising. Dreaming. Planning. I know — it’s a quirk. 😉
But for me, summer is what December is to most people: a time to reflect. What worked well? What can be better? What’s ready to bloom? My notebooks are already filled with ideas.
And in between folding tea towels and dusting cupcake trays, I’m secretly working on something new. Something very tasty. Something launching in September.
Just a little teaser: it’s going to be delicious. 😋
📦 Summer break — here’s what to know!
In August we’re slowing down a little. Time to recharge, reflect, and let new ideas simmer. But don’t worry — you can still enjoy our sweet magic before and after our break. ✨
🧁 Last pick-up and delivery day: Saturday, August 2nd
🎉 We’re back from Saturday, August 23rd
From that day, you can once again pick up or have your cupcakes and cakes delivered — just like you’re used to.
💻 Our webshop — our virtual bakery — stays open the whole time!
So if you’d like to pre-order something sweet for late August or September, go right ahead. You can place orders anytime, even while our ovens are catching their breath. 😉
🎊 Gender reveal cupcakes? YES please!
One more joy I want to share: lately we’ve had so many gender reveal orders! Both cakes and cupcakes. And honestly, I love it so much.
Brand new: when ordering cupcakes, you can now request just one to be filled with the reveal colour — and the rest stay neutral. So everyone takes a bite at the same time… and only one person gets the big surprise. 💗💙
🌴 Let summer taste sweet!
Whether you’re marking a milestone, embracing the quiet, heading off on holiday or just transforming your balcony into a tropical retreat — celebrate with something sweet. 🍰
Our summer flavours are here for just a little longer:
🌸 Lemon-raspberry, coconut-matcha, strawberry & lime…
Let yourself be tempted, let your taste buds dance, and make your day just that little bit sunnier.
Order your summer flavours here.
Lovingly baked,
and always with a touch of magic ✨
