☕💜 CONGRATULATIONS TO Melanie Carpenter!! 💜☕

You are the lucky winner of a Gilat’s Little Bakery coffee mug! 🎉

A HUGE thank you to everyone who participated, commented, guessed, and played along this month! You have been supporting my small business just by commenting, liking or sharing my post! So again - Thank you!

But honestly, my favorite part wasn’t the trivia… it was seeing SO many of you try ube for the very first time, especially those of you who told me you never would have tried it—and then came back and told me you LOVED it! 🥹💜

That makes my baker heart VERY happy. ❤️

Thank you for trusting me to introduce you to new flavors and for coming along on these little Cake of the Month adventures with me. 🌎🍰

Taking orders today for pickups as early as tomorrow 🧡

🍊 KNOCK, KNOCK… 🚪

Who’s there?
Orange. 🍊
Orange who?
ORANGE YOU GLAD I DIDN’T SAY UBE?! 😂

Well… August was all about Ube, but September is bringing something more familiar to Gilat’s Little Bakery!

🎂 SEPTEMBER’S CAKE OF THE MONTH: ORANGE YOU GLAD? 🍊☀️

A soft, moist orange cake layered with a light, creamy orange cream cheese filling/frosting, then topped with a beautiful orange Jell-O disc for a fun little twist!

Bright. Creamy. Citrusy. And just a little nostalgic. 🍊✨

And because it’s the Cake of the Month:

🎂 5-inch
🎂 Two layers
🍊 Orange cake
🍊 Orange cream cheese filling/frosting
✨ Topped with an orange Jell-O disc
💰 $35

I loved seeing so many of you step outside your comfort zone with August’s Ube cake — especially those who told me, “I never would have ordered this, but I’m SO glad I tried it!” ❤️

So September… are you ready to give orange a little love?

Orange you glad I am making this one?? 😉🍊
