🍪🎂 Bakery mode: ACTIVATED. 🎂🍪

Just finished up the self-serve cakes and now it’s time to get rolling on some crunchy peanut butter and chocolate chip cookies! My kitchen currently smells like butter, sugar, and poor decision-making when it comes to taste-testing. 😅

If you’re coming out to the golf scramble tomorrow, be sure to stop by and grab a sweet treat! I’ll have self-serve cakes and fresh cookies available for purchase.

Come support a great cause, enjoy some golf, and treat yourself because calories don’t count at fundraising events… that’s the rule, right? 😉⛳🍪🎂

🎂💙 DEAD BEAT BAKERY SUPPORTS LOCAL KIDS 💙🎂

Many of you know me through Dead Beat Bakery, but today I’m sharing something a little more personal.

My son, Mason, has been given the opportunity to travel to Indiana and participate in the All-State Game, and this Sunday we’re hosting a golf scramble to help get him there.

As a mom, it’s incredible to watch your child work hard and earn opportunities like this. As a small business owner, I’m beyond grateful for a community that continually shows up to support local families.

⛳ There is still time to register a team!

🏌️‍♂️ 4-Person Teams
💵 $200 Per Team
⏰ Tee Times at 8:00 AM & 1:00 PM
📍 Tri-County Country Club

🍔 Food will be available for a free-will donation.
🎟 50/50 Raffle
🏆 Cash prizes awarded

🎂 I will also have single-serve cakes and cookies available for purchase throughout the day, with 100% of the proceeds going directly toward Mason’s trip to Indiana.

Whether you register a team, stop by for food, grab a sweet treat, purchase raffle tickets, or simply share this post, every bit of support helps.

If you’ve been thinking about golfing, grab a few friends and join us for a great day on the course while helping a local kid chase a dream.

Thank you to everyone who has already supported Mason and our family. The encouragement and generosity mean more than you know.

Let’s fill these tee times, enjoy a great day together, and get Mason to Indiana! 💙🏈⛳

🎓💖 I had the honor of making a very special cake over the weekend. 💖🎓

This one meant a little extra to me because it was for my baby sister’s college graduation. Watching someone you love work so hard to achieve something this big is such a proud moment, and getting to create the cake to celebrate it made my heart so full.

There’s something extra special about being trusted to make cakes for life’s biggest milestones, but this one will always hold a special place in my heart. Seeing all the details come together for such an important day made it even sweeter. ❤️

Congratulations to my sister on such an incredible accomplishment! Your hard work paid off, and I couldn’t be more proud. 🎓✨

Thank you to everyone who continues to trust me to be a small part of your special moments. It truly means the world to me. 🫶

🎉🚙 How cool is this birthday cake?! 🚙🎉

I had such an honor making this custom 60th birthday cake for such an down to earth, kind and just all around amazing guy, Kraig! 💙 I had so much fun bringing this Jeep-themed cake to life and making it extra special for his big day!

I also have to say… I am seriously loving how amazing my new edible printer paper turned out! 🙌 The colors, detail, and overall quality are absolutely top tier and make custom cakes look even better!

Thank you for allowing me to be a small part of such a special celebration. I truly hope your birthday is amazing! 🥳🎂

✨ If you’re needing a custom cake for a birthday or special event, send me a message. I’d love to create something special for you! 💙

When I say every donation helps out no matter how big or small I truly mean it.

As of today we are 16 days away from our first fundraiser, 25 days until the second fundraiser and 29 days until we leave for Aurora.

So far we have made $260 in just cookie sales and kind sponsorships. We are still a little was away from our goal of $2500 to cover the game fee, hotel, and travel expenses. I’m asking everyone to please share the cookie fundraiser post, the flyers that has been posted and tell everyone you know to come out and support my baby boy. 🥲🖤🏈

I can’t thank everyone enough for all your support. It means the world to our family.

*Mason even added his own personal touch to the boxes for cookies today. You don’t get that kind of personal touch just anywhere. 😉🖤
