Remember those cherry baby shower cookies? 🍒🤍

Here’s the matching cake!

The original cherry set was so cute and I was so happy to recreate the design on a cake for the same celebration. I love when a cookie design can be carried over into a cake and bring the whole dessert table together. ✨

I’m still figuring out my photo editing 😅 I feel like my usual photos come out too dark, so I’ve been experimenting with going a little brighter. What do you think?

Anyway, are you planning a celebration and want your desserts to coordinate? I’d love to create something for you! Fill out the custom order form through my website to get started. ❤️

Things you probably didn’t know about my bakery. 👀

There are a lot of little decisions that go into what I make at E. Lee’s Sweets—and most of them come down to one thing:

I want to make food that I enjoy eating and also be proud of serving.

🌾 I choose organic flour and milk because sourcing those key ingredients matters to me. I could use organic or grass-fed butter, but personally, I don’t feel the added cost is worth passing along to you.

🍪 I make my doughs and batters at least a day before baking. Giving it time to rest allows the ingredients to hydrate and the flavors to develop, which makes for a more cohesive-tasting bake.

🧁 My recipes didn’t magically appear one day. Most started with a recipe I found online, then came the testing, tweaking, adjusting, and testing again until I landed on something I genuinely loved.

These little details are part of what makes E. Lee’s Sweets mine. ☺️

Which one surprised you? 👀

A little sparkle, a lot of piping, and one of my favorite vintage-style designs yet. ✨

I’ve been having so much fun decorating vintage-style cakes lately, and this one might be one of my favorites.

There’s something about all the little details—the piping, the texture, the tiny embellishments—that makes these cakes so fun to create. 💖

A sweet little cherry set, reimagined for a baby shower 🍒🤍

This customer loved the cherry cookies I made recently and asked me to recreate the set for a baby shower she was hosting, so I swapped the number cookie for a little onesie. 🍼

I think it came out so cute! 😍

I also made the cherries as icing transfers this time, which helped me avoid color bleed and keep those little details nice and crisp.

I love when a previous design gets a little new life for a different celebration. 🥰

Love this set? Want something similar for your next celebration—or have a completely different idea in mind? I’d love to bake it up for you. 🫶

Strawberry Matcha or Matcha Strawberry? 🍓🍵

Honestly… I can’t decide. 😂

This one combines earthy matcha, creamy white chocolate, and sweet strawberry for a cookie that’s rich, balanced, and just the right amount of fruity.

And if you’re a strawberry lover, you have TWO cookies to look forward to this Sunday:

🍓 Strawberry Matcha — matcha + white chocolate + strawberry
🍓 Strawberries & Cream — real freeze dried strawberries + creamy white chocolate

Both will be available when Sunday’s pre-orders open at 12 PM.

If you’ve been wanting to try them, set a reminder. 👀 These are limited-batch flavors!

Just me and my PR samples. We out here bribing local business with cookies and calling it “networking” 😝🍪

If you’re one of the local spots I dropped off to - hi, hope you liked them 👋

Do not, I repeat, DO NOT cut your bread open while it’s still hot. It needs time to finish setting! …anyway here’s me doing exactly that 😅

That crackle and steam get me every time.

Sourdough (focaccia + sandwich loaf) is available for this week’s pre-order — link in bio 🍞

✨ August is already halfway gone! Here’s where you can find me the rest of the month. ✨

Pre-orders open every Sunday at 12 PM. Set a reminder! ⏰

One little reminder—pre-ordering is the best way to guarantee your favorite items before they sell out. It also helps me plan each week’s bake so I can prepare just the right amount with less waste. Win-win! 🍞🍪
