Hutto, you made this really sweet.

We had 84 people nominated for our Summer Birthday Mini Giveaway, and reading through the entries was such a reminder of how much love is tucked into this community.

So many thoughtful notes. So many people cheering for someone else. So many summer birthdays that deserve a little extra celebrating.

And the winner is Beth! We can’t wait to make this birthday a little sweeter.

Thank you for nominating, sharing, and loving your people so well!

Father’s Day is coming up, which means it’s officially time to decide whether dad wants:

* breakfast
* grilling
* dessert
* or realistically… all three 😅

I put together a Father’s Day baking ideas post over on the Happy Hippo Bakery blog with a few recipes and ideas that feel fun, nostalgic, and easy to pull off at home.

There’s something really special about homemade food being part of family celebrations, and I love getting to share a little bit of that outside the bakery too!

There’s a difference between bringing dessert… and bringing something that feels intentional.

When you’re planning an event, whether it’s a fundraiser, corporate gathering, or celebration, the details matter. Not just how things taste, but how they come together and fit the moment.

That’s always my goal with larger orders: something that feels thoughtful, easy, and just right for your event.

If you’re planning something this season, I’d love to help with the sweet part.

Inquire to get your event on the calendar!

I don’t think funfetti cakes will ever go out of style 🎉

They just feel fun! Colorful on the inside, classic on the outside, and always a hit at birthday parties.

This one went out during a very full week in the kitchen, which honestly made me extra thankful for customers who book ahead and trust me with their celebrations months in advance 💛

Summer dates are starting to fill, so if you’ve got a birthday coming up, now’s a great time to get your order on the calendar.

One thing about me… if there’s an opportunity to add extra pink buttercream details, I’m going to take it 🎀

This Mother’s Day giveaway cake was such a fun one to make: soft pinks, signature vanilla cake, and a design that felt sweet without taking itself too seriously.

Summer tends to bring a lot of birthdays, baby showers, and smaller celebrations, and I still have availability for June and July custom orders.

So if you’ve been thinking about ordering a cake for something coming up… this is your sign 👀

There are two types of cakes:
the ones that steal the show… and the ones that quietly know the secret 👀

This one was the backup plan for a gender reveal, which meant I got to know before everyone else.

Beautiful weather = no backup needed… just a really good excuse to eat cake.

I’d call that a win!

Got a summer celebration coming up? I'd love to bake for you!
