Saturday I had the Honor of making a cake for A hiking organization and I was beyond excited to be part of their event, yet the cake had other plans. I was left devastated and very upset. However, I am beyond thankful for my very understanding customer, but I was disappointed in myself. I contacted a few of my fellow bakers to see if they had any available cakes, but I had no luck. I figured out a solution and gave myself a little grace. I was left feeling upset for the rest of the day, and now with a clear mind I can think and process the mistakes I made and will continue to do what I love, of course with some adjustments.

Every baker will tell you that this job has its pros and cons. We love the creativity, the smell of fresh bread, and the joy on someone's face when they first see their cake.But what we don't always show, or even speak about, are the issues we encounter behind the kitchen door. The collapsed bread. The dough that just won't rise. The orders that go wrong at the absolute worst time. It can be incredibly stressful, and honestly? Deeply disappointing. You pour hours of work and your heart into something, just to watch it fail.But here is the truth about the kitchen: once you are stuck in that situation, you really only have two choices.
You can either let the mistake bring you down, ruin your day, and make you want to throw in the towel....or, you figure it out. You solve it. And you choose to learn from it. Because the best bakers aren't the ones who never mess up—they’re the ones who learned how to turn a disaster into a masterpiece.

Never give up! And always remember you can do whatever you set your mind to 🙌
(What would you have done?)

El sábado tuve el honor de hacer un pastel para una organización de caminantes y estaba muy emocionada de formar parte de su evento, pero el pastel tenía otros planes. Quedé devastada y muy molesta. Sin embargo, estoy inmensamente agradecida con mi cliente, que fue muy comprensiva, aunque me sentí decepcionada conmigo misma. Me puse en contacto con algunos de mis compañeras reposteras para ver si tenían algún pastel disponible, pero no tuve suerte. Encontré una solución y me di un poco de gracia a mí misma. Me quedé sintiéndome molesta el resto del día, y ahora, con la mente despejada, puedo pensar y procesar los errores que cometí y seguir haciendo lo que amo, por supuesto con algunos ajustes :)

Todo repostero te dirá que este trabajo tiene sus ventajas y desventajas. Nos encanta la creatividad, el olor del pan recién horneado y la alegría en el rostro de alguien cuando ve su pastel por primera vez. Pero lo que no siempre mostramos, ni siquiera hablamos de ello, son los problemas que enfrentamos detrás de la puerta de la cocina. Los panes que se derrumban. La masa que simplemente no quiere levar. Los pedidos que salen mal en el peor momento posible. Puede ser increíblemente estresante y, sinceramente, profundamente decepcionante. Inviertes horas de trabajo y tu corazón en algo, solo para verlo fracasar. Pero esta es la verdad sobre la cocina: una vez que te encuentras en esa situación, realmente solo tienes dos opciones.

Puedes dejar que el error te derrumbe, arruine tu día y te haga querer tirar la toalla... o puedes resolverlo. Encontrar una solución. Y decidir aprender de ello. Porque los mejores reposteros no son los que nunca se equivocan, sino los que aprendieron a convertir un desastre en una obra maestra.
¡Nunca te rindas! Y recuerda siempre que puedes lograr todo lo que te propongas 🙌
