Sweet & Sourdough + Hanna’s Cakery family,
Some bittersweet news. I’ve gotten a lot of questions already so I wanted to be open and share this here as well.
No, I’m not baking anymore and I don’t plan to for the foreseeable future. I’m not sure if I’ll return to it at all. I haven’t talked much about it because I wanted to avoid all the “why” and “what if” conversations and wasn’t ready to let it go yet.
Right now I’m starting my personal training certification and I’m fully focused on this next chapter. It’s a big program with a lot of studying and I’m also continuing to pursue additional certifications throughout the year including Pilates, barre, and reformer training which requires some in person training hours away. My goal is to build a long term career in the fitness and wellness world. 🌎
Over time my priorities have shifted. My passion for baking just isn’t what it used to be and I’ve realized I can’t keep creating for such meaningful moments when my heart isn’t fully in it anymore. My customers deserve my best. 🤍
This page will stay up but custom orders are officially closed. I will still be doing the roadside stand this summer and in the future which will be the only way to get sourdough or treats from me. I’ll also bake occasionally for close family and friends but nothing beyond that.
This wasn’t an easy decision. Business has slowed and I found myself putting more in than I was getting out. After my health department scare a few years ago I never fully got back into my rhythm and I’ve gone back and forth for a long time but I knew I couldn’t stay in that cycle.
I’m so grateful for Gabe for supporting me through this and especially for allowing me to take this upcoming time off so I can fully focus on studying and what’s next. ❤️
I’m really excited for this new chapter and where life is leading me. My love for health and fitness has grown so much and I feel ready for something more aligned long term.
Thank you all for the love and support through this journey. It has meant everything to me. Gabe and I appreciate you more than you know. Any orders already placed will still be fulfilled. ❤️
