Iโ€™m really excited about this change. Youโ€™ll still be able to count on your favorites, while I get a little more room to play around in the kitchen and keep the menu interesting. Which, if you know me, you know I am physically incapable of not coming up with new things to bake. ๐Ÿคฃ

In fact, you'll probably see more variety this way - I just won't be trying to keep all of it available at the same time.

I'm hoping this gives you the best of both worlds: your favorites are always here, while there's regularly something new to look forward to.

And for me, it means a bakery that's a little more organized, a lot more sustainable, and still gives me plenty of room to create.

Preorders are OPEN! ๐Ÿค๐Ÿ‚

The fall menu is ready and waiting for you, and Iโ€™m ready for another week of filling my kitchen with entirely too much flour. ๐Ÿ˜‚

Orders close TOMORROW at 11:59 PM for Friday or Saturday pickup.

As always, every order also helps support our quarterly animal nonprofit rescues and sanctuaries!

Order here:

Chewy sourdough discard cookies, loaded with bittersweet and semisweet chocolate, finished with a touch of flaky sea salt.

After a brief and very unwanted vacation, I am officially back in the kitchen!

My middle finger has undergone an extremely rigorous rehabilitation program involving kneading doughs, shaping cookies and generally proving that it can once again perform its most important duties. ๐Ÿ˜‚

After being forced to sit out last week, I am VERY ready to get back to making delicious treats for you.

Thank you so much for all of the kind messages, patience, and understanding while I gave my finger time to heal. And a special thank you to everyone who still checked in on me while I was sitting around unable to bake. ๐Ÿค

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have some dough to make and a middle finger to put back to work.

Well. This week has beenโ€ฆa lot.

Apparently I need to stop trying to fight gnats with my bare hands. ๐Ÿ™„

In a completely unnecessary battle with one of those tiny household menaces, I managed to miss the gnat, hit the wall, and tear a ligament in my left middle finger. ๐‘ฉ๐’†๐’„๐’‚๐’–๐’”๐’† ๐’‚๐’‘๐’‘๐’‚๐’“๐’†๐’๐’•๐’๐’š ๐’•๐’‰๐’‚๐’•'๐’” ๐’‚ ๐’•๐’‰๐’Š๐’๐’ˆ ๐’•๐’‰๐’‚๐’• ๐’„๐’‚๐’ ๐’‰๐’‚๐’‘๐’‘๐’†๐’.

But before I tell you about the food, I want to say something about the people who make The Giving Treat possible.

You have continued to grow with me as I've grown this little bakery. You've been incredibly kind, patient, encouraging, and supportive through recipe experiments, new products, learning curves, oven disasters, and everything else I've thrown at you.
