✨ A Birthday, A Dream & A Little Bit of Magic ✨
Today I’m celebrating Mel — a completely self-taught cake artist, living in beautiful Auckland, New Zealand. 🎂🇳🇿
My story with Sugar & Spice began long before I ever owned a cake shop. My Nana would always sing “Sugar and spice and everything nice” to me. ❤️ She told me I was special, full of talent and that one day I would grow up to own my own cake shop.
Well Nana… you were right. 🥹❤️
From teaching myself everything I know to building Sugar & Spice Bakery, every cake has been part of a dream that started in childhood.
Today, on my birthday, I’m celebrating the journey, the lessons, the beautiful creations — and the amazing people who have supported me along the way.
Dreams really can come true. ✨🎂
