The sweetest comeback pop up is coming up. It’s been a whole year since the front of my shop has been closed and I couldn’t be more excited to have a case stocked with desserts for A Snowkomis Celebration December 12 & 13. Come see us and snag some of those desserts you’ve missed!

Overdue post!
I’ve meant to post for so long and have tried finding the the perfect words and the time and I keep delaying… bear with me this may be a long post.

First thing I want to clarify before you read on is that YES, I am still decorating and taking ORDERS for cakes, cupcakes and desserts. I will continue taking orders, however, spots are LIMITED.

With that being said this is what’s going on.
Unfortunately as many know, especially small business owners, it has been getting more and more of a struggle to keep afloat. Rising utility and grocery costs have went through the roof. I’ve always wanted to keep my prices reasonable and still be able to make ends meet.
This past December I was hit with the blow of after 18 years of decorating I was in need of carpal and cubital tunnel surgery if I wanted to be able to continue decorating. I planned to take 6- 8 weeks off work. In that time frame it took longer to heal than expected. By the time I wanted to come back to work is when egg prices not only went through the roof but I also lost my amazing farm egg dealer. (Keep in mind I am LICENSED commercial kitchen and have to have department of ag certified eggs)
So I decided to not open the front of the bakery back up. Most days do well selling, but with egg prices at $7+/dozen, I could not risk the gamble of a bad sell day.
A few of these circumstances have been the “icing on the cake” that quickly forced me into burnout.
Whether it has still been my passion or not, I have been struggling with burnout big time. Especially when there are several hard working hours put in with no paycheck to show. With all the overhead it turned into literally paying just to work.
I have had several sleepless nights and shed many tears on this matter. I did not want to completely burn myself out and make a rash decision that I may regret. I want to always be able to find the light and look at the bright side.
So, with that being said, I have decided to take a small step back to find myself and my passion again. I have taken on a second job to see where I stand with myself and give myself time to rebuild and regroup.
I am so very grateful for Tom and Lola at Nokomis Gift and Garden for giving me the opportunity to have a “paying” job doing something else I love, while I reset myself.

So while I do not know WHEN I will open the front back up for walk-ins, Cake It On is very much still standing!

Thank you all for your continued support and taking the time to read my story.

You can still message me on here to place an order or in the meantime catch me enjoying life working at the greenhouses at Nokomis gift and Garden. 🪴 🌺

👋🏼 Hey family, friends, loyal customers, and followers! This is Sarah (Jessica’s sister).

Today, I’m inviting you to join me in celebrating a remarkable achievement. 🎉

Six years ago, on this date (February 6, 2019), Jessica boldly turned her vision into reality, opening a STOREFRONT bakery 🎂🥧🧁🍪that has achieved much success. With nearly 20 years of experience as a baker 👩🏼‍🍳 and designer, her tireless passion and dedication is evident in every item that leaves her bakery. It’s a testament to her perseverance and resilience, especially in today’s economy and in a small town.

I firmly believe that Jessica should be incredibly proud of this accomplishment.

Here’s to continued success, sis! Keep shining and baking the world 🌎 👩🏼‍🍳a better place! 💜🫶🏻💜🫶🏻💜

Oh heyyy, it’s me, Jessica! I’m still here. This week is my first week back to work! I know you all may be expecting a menu since it’s Wednesday, but as of right now I am easing back into it.
For the time being until I can rebuild my strength and can squeeze without pain, I will only be taking on orders and decorating.
I will keep you all updated when I do reopen the front with all the yummy desserts you wait to see weekly.
Thank you all so much for your support!

Good morning all my sweets lovers!! It’s Wednesday and I know you may be expecting a menu post coming from me, sadly that’s not this post.
I am doing great, however, my hand/arm has decided it is not healed enough yet to be back to piping icing like I originally thought I could be doing by now. Ricotta in stuffed shells was the trial run and it did not go well lol.
With that being said, I’ll be expecting you all to stick with those diets until the end of the month! Come February, I will be back open and taking your orders! See you all in February!😁

It’s the 2nd day of Snowkomis and I will be OPEN today from 9-2. Bring the kiddos in for complimentary decorate your own Christmas tree cupcake, hot cocoa bar and other desserts that will be available for purchase.

CASH OR CHECK ONLY!

12/12/2024

This Saturday come decorate your own Christmas tree cupcake or enjoy the hot cocoa bar. These items will be FREE of charge or you can contribute a donation if you wish.
The holidays are times of enough spending and I believe the kiddos should get to experience as much of Christmas magic and fun without extra spending.
It will also be my last hurrah day of being open to offer a fun day of appreciation for my wonderful customers and kiddos before being closed until January.

There will also be other items available in the case for purchase as usual.

I hope to see you all Saturday! 😊
