I was lucky enough to meet and befriend a wonderful person when I was living on Ft Polk as a new military wife. We have stayed in touch and this cause is close to her heart. Please help me give them some support. All money raised will be directly donated to their cause, and receipts posted.

Will have total and proof of donation soon for our HUGS fundraiser. I did a quick cake cutting video that is helpful in cutting taller cakes in case anyone is interested. Don’t mind the kids. One is the videographer and one the interruptor.

Hi everyone! This is just an awareness post, I’m currently prepping wedding cakes for my sisters wedding so can’t do an official fundraiser. World Central Kitchen, who we supported back in the spring, is preparing meals for hurricane affected areas in Florida. Just putting it out there in case anyone would like to contribute to hurricane relief and needs a reliable organization. Thanks!

Your donation will help to provide fresh meals for those in need after disasters, and build long-term resilience in affected communities.
