Honey Bee Baking Co.

09/02/2026

Hi friends! 👋🩷

Miss you all. Just wanted to check in, say hi, and give a little update.

First off, my nervous system has benefited tremendously from not having to figure out how to balance my responsibilities to my family with the responsibility and demand of stocking the bakery weekly.

This week has already shown me why I needed a step back—Vic started throwing up repeatedly throughout the evening on Sunday, so we took him to Children’s. Poor boy was down to nothing but bile by Monday morning 🥺 Long story short, he’s got Influenza B, and I’ve been getting all the cuddles yesterday and today.

He’s doing MUCH better, but I’ve been constantly thinking about how grateful I am that I don’t have to stress whether I needed to close for the week or pull long hours to make bakery day happen.

That’s it for now! Thank you for you love and support, as always.

🩷, Kait

Hey friends, I’m going to be real with you.

This year has thrown a lot at me, and I’ve been trying to power through it like some kind of superhero, but it turns out I’m just a human. A very tired one. I’ve been overwhelmed, running on fumes, and trying to do everything by myself for way too long.

So I’m going to press pause for a second. I’m taking some time to rest, bring on some help, and restructure things so that Honey Bee can come back better and more sustainable.

This isn’t goodbye, it’s just a reset! I’ll be back fresh, strong, and excited to bake for you again. I’ll keep you updated on when that is.

Thank you for being the kind of community that makes this worth coming back to. I love y’all.

Please share so that we can hopefully reduce the amount of bummed out people that try to come by in the morning!

I had the opportunity to visit all of my remaining grandparents, and for that I’m so thankful 🩷

I’m so sorry to be doing this yet again, but I’m heading out of town last minute for a few days. My grandma hasn’t been doing well, and I want to spend a little time with her.

As always, I’m so appreciative of my little community and your love, kindness, and support. I’ll share reopening details soon.

Thank you to everyone that came in on Friday!

You guys had us RUNNING 🥵 it’s been a long time since I had to start baking more batches of cookies to keep up with the demand! I literally baked until I ran out of dough 😅

It was a bittersweet goodbye with geaux_gwilson! We will miss you, my friend, and we’ll be rooting for you from afar 💜

When I say that my customers are my favorite thing about a bakery Friday, I mean it 💜

I have a particular OG customer that has visited my brother and I since the very beginning--before the bakery had a brick-and-mortar home. Well, by the end of this month, he's going to be moving to Texas to start his career as an Industrial Engineer, and we're so excited and proud!

As a special thank you for the continued patronage over the years, I told him that I would let him curate the menu so that he could get his favorite things one last time before he heads out. I thought I would release the menu a day early so you could see his picks!

I know I’ve been super quiet for the last few weeks—I haven’t really been around my phone, and if I’m being honest, it’s been glorious.

I’ve been starting to feel burnout and fatigue knocking at the door, and so I’m spending time focusing on the present moment, slowing down, and being intentional with my time.

My family vacation was exactly what I needed! You know when sometimes you come back from a vacation feeling like you need a vacation to recover from your original vacation?! 😂 I didn’t feel that one bit!

As promised, I will be open and I’ve got something special this week for all of you! I’ll be seeing you all on Friday 🩷

Thank you all for the birthday wishes, I love and miss you all!

07/24/2026

Friendly reminder that we won’t be open tomorrow or next week! I’ve traveled to Northern Wisconsin with my little family, and we won’t be back until the middle of next week!

Don’t forget about us while I’m gone! I’ve got a little special something planned for when I get back, more details to come!

Miss you all already, see you soon 🩷
