My client said her boy was obsessed with anything spooky, especially Ghosts, Haunted Mansion, and Nightmare Before Christmas.

Say less. You had me at spooky. 💀🧟👻🪦

Thank you for, once again, just allowing me to roll with the theme and create a fun concoction of all 3 obsessions. Special thank you to Janelle Kornecki for the perfect topper 🖤

*And thank you to everyone here for being understanding and cool about my summer availability so I can spend it hanging out with my kids instead of in the kitchen. This time has allowed me to evaluate my business a bit and come to the conclusion that changes need to be made.

Everyone is feeling the rising cost of everything. I do my best to keep prices as low as possible while giving the highest quality ingredients and beautiful products. I love my work and I'm proud of what I have done with Black Orchid Bakery, but I can't continue on with the costs the way they are. Prices will, unfortunately but necessarily, be raised slightly for Cakes, Cupcakes, and Cookies and other items that don't get ordered a lot will be discontinued indefinitely (cake pops, cake truffles, and cakesicles).

Thank you again SO much and I look forward to creating beautiful desserts for all of your special events in the future! September and October books are open! Get your orders in!

Sunday was such a great time at the Harford Spring Social. Rockfield Manor was the perfect venue for this beautiful event that brought so many talented women together.

I was able to create an item I haven't done before with Black Orchid... Cake Parfait cups! They were a huge hit and the Pina Colada flavor combo is my new favorite.

Thank you to The Grazing Room at Boards by Dana for starting this event and allowing me to be a part of it.

Throwing it back to this doggone cute cake!

I made this cake last year and I was so happy to see the setup (and kind words) from the client.

Just a friendly reminder that once school is out and summer is in full swing my availability will be VERY limited. This is the last summer before my twins start pre-k and spending as much time with them as possible doing fun things will be my priority. If you have any summertime celebrations, please get those orders in as soon as possible to ensure you get on the books.

Thank you and I hope you all have a wonderful Tuesday!

🖤 How beautiful is this? Thistle & Twig Floral Design is incredible!

One thing about me...well two actually. I LOVE pastel florals. (mostly lavender 💜) and I LOVE flowering arches. 🪻🫶That is all.
