Story time ✨ When I started BCBC I thought I would become the neighborhood bread lady. Very early on, I realized that all people are reaching out to me for are cakes. Cakes from the menu sometimes, but more often custom cakes. Now…cake decorating has never been my specialty. I hesitated to even put cakes on my menu at first because even though my cakes tasted delicious, I never felt the decor was up to s***f. Flash forward to almost a year in, and it’s all I sell 😂 I think people are comfortable getting bread from the grocery store, and there just isn’t a market for artisan bread in my area. There is however a lack of bakeries, and in particular, bakeries that will accept custom/off menu orders. This golden Oreo cake, and a marble cake (that I didn’t post cause I couldn’t slice it 😂) were so fun and I enjoyed being able to help my community out with a last minute cake they couldn’t get elsewhere. I don’t know what the future holds for BCBC, but for now I am enjoying just having a cake or so a week. I honestly couldn’t handle more with my 9-5 and two kids…it’s just a self-sustaining hobby at this point. This one was fun 🤩 Thanks if you read this lol probably should have just blogged it…oh well. 😆
